Rickey expects Pats to trade back or take JJM

ajr2456 : 4/25/2024 10:50 am
BREAKING: I'm now expecting the Patriots to either trade back or select JJ McCarthy at 3 #NFLDraft 
Rickey - ( New Window )
Pages: 1 2 | Show All |  Next>>
Heard that they liked JJM more than Maye

Back in March but didn’t buy it. Now I do…
Rickey has already earned plenty of respect but he could become

a legend tonight if what he's said comes true
They think a Michigan QB  
jeff57 : 4/25/2024 10:53 am : link
Is all they need for success.
Originally  
Scooter185 : 4/25/2024 10:54 am : link
I wanted NE to fall in love with JJM so Maye would be available for us

Then I was okay with JJM being their for JS

Now it's sounding like my initial hope is going to come true

Maye the Force be with us!
Let's hope so.

If that happens  
eric2425ny : 4/25/2024 10:55 am : link
There will be a very fast trade with AZ to move up to 4 and take Maye. The question is who makes the better offer, us or Minnesota.
I think Pats  
Sammo85 : 4/25/2024 10:56 am : link
are trying to goat people to trade up. They do not want to pick at 3.
I sure hope that is the case  
Mike from Ohio : 4/25/2024 10:56 am : link
Then call Arizona and get up to #4 to get Drake Maye and let's get to work.
 
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 4/25/2024 10:56 am : link
I think Drake will be a Giant later tonight.
Supposedly JJM  
BleedBlue46 : 4/25/2024 10:57 am : link
Is the only QB that met with Robert Kraft.

Who gets boxed out? NYG or MIN?

We're about to get a big, burly playmaking QB with a rocket arm.

Let Cowden work out a small trade up with AZ and get the 18-year old Scotch ready.

If they want Maye or McCarthy they will have to. If they trade back to #6 they will potentially be in the same boat we could be at #6 - all of the top 4 QBs are off the board.

If they trade out of #3 it is because they value the draft picks more than Maye and McCarthy.

Exactly. Kraft wants to pick JJM too.

From this leaking out is AZ. They can use that info to drive up bidding for 4..

I suspect both LAC and AZ want Nabers or MHJ and neither are willing to move down to 11. Remember Harbaugh has never traded down in the first. There's a real chance we could get Maye for say 2025 2nd and pick 70 or 107. I'd prefer JJM, but either of them for that cost is good with me.
The Pats have  
mittenedman : 4/25/2024 10:59 am : link
overplayed their hand in classic fashion.

Everyone knows they want JJM, and they can't trade down. It's like they didn't even think it through.
Conclusion: JJM to NE, pretty much guarantees we get Maye  
KingBlue : 4/25/2024 10:59 am : link
Arizona will not go lower than 6. So the only way we lose out is if Arizona insists on Marvin at 4. If the rumors are true that we have a tentative deal in place with Arizona then we get Maye...

Let's go!!!!

I really don't think AZ or LAC want to miss out on Nabers or MHJ. There might be a much bigger drop to Odunze than most realize. Plus, Odunze wouldn't be there at 11 either. Harbaugh can get Morgan or Seumalia for RT with their 2nd round pick.

Kraft being vocal about loving JJM and reportedly he only met with him, none of the other QBs. Plus a first year GM equals this.
Arizona  
3rdnlong : 4/25/2024 11:02 am : link
Wants one of the top 3 WR's I think we are a better trade partner. They are guaranteed MHJ or Nabors/Odunze at 6 if the trade with us for a QB.
Pats beat writer  
Big Rick in FL : 4/25/2024 11:03 am : link
Tom Curran posted 3 minutes before this tweet that he expects the Pats to take Maye at 3 unless a team makes them an offer they can't refuse.
there is a huge risk here  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 4/25/2024 11:03 am : link
The Cardinals can still trade down with the Vikings and then trade up with the Chargers. I posted about this threat a week or two ago.

They can't trade to 11, if Kraft doesn't get JJM and he looks great with Minnesota which he likely would then Wolf is fired on the spot.

This compensation makes sense and provides everyone with the player they want.

I think the best idea for NYG is offer AZ pick 6 and 2025 2nd round pick to move up to pick 4. Get in position to get a QB, then offer NE pick 70 to swap places. They Get JJM we get Maye.

Otherwise offer NE 6, 70 and 2025 2nd round pick to NE to get to 3.

They could but it's much easier to go from 6 to 5 (if they indeed want Harrison badly enough) than it is from 11 to 5. They might even have Harrison and Nabers close enough that they don't care either

I don't think Harbaugh wants to move down for the first time when he has the chance at 2 all pro potential wr prospects. I really think the Vikings are boxed out.

Adding to this, that would mean JJ is there at 6. After that interview yesterday, maybe JJ knows something we don't

I firmly believe both AZ and LAC want Nabers or MHJ. They are likely the two top rated players in the entire draft. Once again, Harbaugh had never traded down and LAC have 2 receivers on their roster currently. Count em, 2!
You guys

Is there any chance the Giants could stay pat at 6 and let Maye fall to them? Does Arizona and LA really want to pass out on a top WR or Alt?
Schrager has the Pats picking Maye.

They have Palmer, Johnson, Derius Davis and Fehoko (non-factor). It's not so dire that they can't wait until the 2nd round. At 37 there should be some good options

Heisenberg : 4/25/2024 11:12 am : link
I still can't see how either AZ or LAC passes on one of the three WRs  
The Mike : 4/25/2024 11:13 am : link
So my guess is, a slight trade back with the Giants is still the most sensible move for either. So if the Pats pass on Maye, then it would seem that the trade up from us to either four or five to get him would not have to include our 2025 first round pick.

The idea that a North Carolina Tar Heel could again be the savior of this franchise is beginning to actually feel possible. The ten minutes the Pats are on the clock tonight will be interminable.

Hard to say. Minnesota will likely offer #11, #23, and their #1 and #3 next year. Schoen would have to offer #6, #47, and our #1 next year to compete with that, which he might unfortunately do. But if he does, I think Arizona would take that offer.

I can totally see this happening. We get boxed out of getting one of the top four QBs. Then, the DJFC will be rejoicing tonight (unless we make another move for Penix/Nix).

I don’t care. Oh no, I stay at 6 and and draft an elite prospect at a premium position and don’t have to give away valuable draft capital. Unclutch the pearls boys, we can’t lose here.
if MIN jumps us for Maye  
mphbullet36 : 4/25/2024 11:27 am : link
and Charges go OT which they are now rumored to.

Wonder if a Giants CHI trade is in the cards.

Bears trade up for MHjr we get #9...and unless 7 and 8 picks are both Nabers and Odunze...we would probably get one of the top WR's a ton of extra draft capital.

So all is not lost.
