Did you read that somewhere or are you projecting? It does make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjfollett Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 My take is the TE from Minn wants too much money to go to NE. If Minn trades him, it will probably be to Baltimore or the Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Minn trades him, it will probably be to Baltimore or the Jets. Baltimore drafted 2 TEs last year in the 1st and 3rd rounds. Cant see that happening. They need outside threats, if anything. I do agree Pats probably wont trade for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Honestly I hope the Jets trade for am honestly I hope Le'Veon Bell has a good season I'd love to see the Jets press the Patriots for that division Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 As much as I don't like how Le'Veon Bell handled his business you know what he did not become mr. Big chest. I really don't hate Le'Veon Bell. Frankly I do wish you would still here I just don't feel like he was worth the money he was asking for and ultimately did not get the money he was asking for. Having said that I'm really sick and tired of the Patriots getting what equates to a free ticket to the playoffs every single year because their division is truly that bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see them as real threats until the year after, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly I think it should be an indictment on the quality of tap that we have if Anthony chickillo has gotten to become a starter at any point again this season to me it's a problem. But the reality is that is the depth that we have. I'm not expecting All Pro backups but when it comes to the depth that we have on defense in the front seven it's pretty easily replaceable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not expecting All Pro backups but when it comes to the depth that we have on defense in the front seven it's pretty easily replaceable Wait, so the narrative has now swung from "Keion Adams sucks, we should have done anything to get him off the roster" to "well, he showed some promise in TC!"? Anything to rag on Colbert and co I guess. But what depth are you worried about exactly? The 4th quarter of the preseason? Because thats the only depth these 5 affect. These 5 overall having a major effect on Chickillo is a leap - and thats not because he is good, its the reality of the NFL. The "our depth sucks if there is an injury" is rampant in the NFL. It's an NFL problem, not a Steelers ONLY problem. These cuts are not news, they are an FYI. Keion Adams had his chance last year and lost to an undrafted guy from Toledo. Then this year, they saw enough in a 2 weeks of Sutton Smith and some other no name from Toledo in a tryout to say Adams was expandable. That doesn't make me believe they think highly of Adams. I implore people to expand their football universe to the NFL and not just the Steelers bubble. The Saints made 10 moves yesterday, and they should have played in the Super Bowl last year. There were over 50 roster moves yesterday in the NFL, not including the Steelers. This stuff happens ALL THE TIME and its not an indictment of the depth, its not a story to continue to build a case against GMs and coaches...its the NFL at an absurd number of roster space that the player pool cannot match (it already has trouble matching 53 per team), trying to see which ones MIGHT have a 0.01% chance of making some noise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jebrick Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Adams was not drafted to be an EDGE rusher. He was going to be the 3rd safety/hybrid LB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keion Adams was definitely drafted as an EDGE rusher. Sutton Smith was drafted to be the safety/off ball LB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
