Patriots trade WR Demaryius Thomas to the Jets

To throw floating ducks to all game.

......either NE thinks Thomas is shot, or the Jets think he can still play.

Who's right?

Your obsession with Darnold is so extreme that it reads as manufactured. As in, to conceal the possibility that you and fanofthejets are actually the same person.

but it's the Pats so don't know if we're missing something here

some mysterious physical ailment that'll knock him out for the year. Belichick is evil.

is Thomas complains about his helmet, tapes a phone call with Gase, gets released, Patriots re-sign him and trade him for another pick.

Good for them.

Based on the return, a 2021 6th, it sounds like both think he's done.

I can hear that conversation....
Anonymous Pats Representative "Ok, we have an offer from the Jets for DT. Its a good offer...but, of course, its the Jets, a fellow member of our division. Not sure about making a trade in division.

Rest Of room: "The JETS? HA HA HA HA HA!!!! Yeah man, put that trade through, its all good:)"

I think both thoughts are true but only one is right and it ain't the team wearing green. No way would BB trade him in Division if he didn't think he was shot.

Perfect Moops!

is catches against our backups haven’t changed my mind.

Cut him a couple of weeks back.
But a 2021 6th rounder is fairly cheap.

that is not good value for Thomas the Pats cut him two weeks ago. They could have just picked him up for free than.

Zog I totally agree :)

In danger of not making the team? I believe he was cut and then resigned. He is not the player he once was.

The Pats get out from under any salary he has, send him to a team who is no threat to them and get a future pick. The Jets fet help at a position of need and keep Thomas from having options (for all we know he might have just said screw it I am done).. The Chiefs lost a WR and maybe could have used Thomas and his knowledge of the Pats, maybe Buffalo, maybe Baltimore or even Tennessee. The Pats essentially kept him from any other contender.

Not really. The Patriots cut him with the intent of re-signing him. I believe it was even discussed with DT prior to the move. Procedural crap.

It's a good gamble for the Jets. A sixth is nothing and there was no room left for DT after the Brown signing.

Is washed.

the fork in his back? That the Pats were willing to trade him in-division tells you they think he helps them on the Jets more than on NE. Buyer beware.

Thomas is shot.

Three days after releasing him when they put N'Keal Harry on IR. Didn't see too much of the Jets game, but it didn't look like the WR's fault, think it was Robbie Anderson, when Darnold overthrew him deep late in the game and could have sealed the win.
