Patriots trade TE Gronkowski and a 7th to Bucs for a 4th

The one thing is, in contrast to the Jaguars as a most recent example, the Patriots can say they don't necessarily hold guys hostage. In fact, Shefter on ESPN minutes ago with Wendy Nix on NFL Live just reiterated that Gronk was traded to the Lions for a second round pick two years ago, just like I said would happen at that time. It is worth noting only because player disputes can often come back to hurt a team with prospective free agents.

Wow, who could have predicted this before it happened? Oh wait.

I post this to illustrate how Gronk screwed the Patriots over a bit more than just in the 2019 season. Only saving grace is he finally got to play in a Super Bowl and the Pats won it after negating this deal in 2018.

+Sad to see Gronk playing for another team, but at least we got something in return.

+Wonder what Julian must be thinking right now.

+Really hope BB finds a gem at QB bc if we aren't winning games, BB isn't attracting anyone to NE. 

+It's clear some of these players didn't fully enjoy playing for BB, they made it work only because they were winning.
