So it's March and we may have no football "hotstove" offseason, but I can still talk football right?
Here's the deal, I am by no means an expert, actually I'm still learning, but I'll share my humble opinions on the Pat's, the NFL, and the Boston sports scene. I live here and I love it and people are always interested in it. I encourage you my friends and fans of other teams to get involved. Mike Felger on the sportshub likes to say "fact not opinion" I will say, these are my opinions not necessarily the facts.
Onward to football in March: the NFL and its players may not have a contract as soon as March 4th, this means no offseason info on any of our favorite teams, actually players and coaches and organizations can have no contact. What of the rookies you ask, well they are also left out in the cold after the draft. I think that the owners and players need to stop being disingenuous and get a deal done. Many of your normal sites of sports news are trying to keep us informed and are doing decent job of explaining the major issues so check them out.
The NFL combine just concluded and there are plenty of players that seem like they are going to be the next big thing or the next big bust, but I'm hoping the Pats get the next best thing. I think the Pat's need to go defense (front seven) and Offensive Line. Move up? Maybe, but I think the needs and the players available meet pretty well in the middle so I say the should stay put and not give up the house and car to move into the top 10. I'll have more thoughts on this in a few weeks but chime and let me know what you think.
I have no idea what this means, but it sounds very interesting. Can't wait to be down with Browne again next time. ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't like moving up in the draft, unless you're getting someone you absolutely know you need. And since the Pats need quite a few people, I'm not sure it's worth it.
ReplyDeleteD-Line and O-Line, that's where they need to focus.
