After weeks of listening to offers for the No. 3 overall pick, all signs now point to the #Patriots standing pat and picking.
The belief within the league is that pick will most likely be North Carolina QB Drake Maye.

When #Patriots are on the clock and Drake Maye is there, will #Giants GM Joe Schoen up his offer from so far? I think he will (for a lot of reasons).
I have no read on if Patriots will meet him in middle if he ups it or hold firm on getting even more
Yep. Hope we get McCarthy then.
👍
I still can't get over the fact that McCarthy sounded like he was going to the Giants. But that is just a subjective take on my part.

All I know is I’m riding with Peppers all the way to the end.
The Pats ARE weird.
Fuck the Patriots.
You have no interest? We're fine where we are at, or we're fine with McCarthy.

Oh, they are/were trying to milk the crowd for a ton of picks - seeing how desperate everyone is.
And exhausting. I’m now at the point of expecting all the speculation to be ‘Sound and fury, signifying nothing.’ And somehow we’ll draft a WR who will make OBJ look like a level-headed team-first guy.
I need to be sedated.
(1) Pats take McCarthy
(2) Pats take Maye
(3) Pats trade down with Vikings or Giants
I wouldn't deal with the Pats if they want our #1. I just wouldn't. I'd call their bluff on that and deal with the Cardinals instead, just like I said all morning.
So now NYG either play a freaking bidding war against Minnesota for 4 or 5 for McCarthy, or are just saying the hell with QB and taking a wideout instead?
If I’m forced to watch Jones under center for another year, I’d rather jump off a cliff.

Again, I just can't get over McCarthy's interview with Eisen....heck he even mentioned Tierney.
My gut tells me QB.
Plus side for those who want QB - betting odds really like OT to go at pick 5. If we like JJ he is probably there at 6.
But then again, as I’ve been saying for months, it’s hugely unlikely for 4 QBs to go in the top 6 since it’s never happened before. Looking like I’m going to be correct.
Is that a foreshadow?
McCarthy or Maye could fall to five or six.
My gut tells me QB.
I'm holding out hope its JJM if we're indeed going QB. #1 I like him more and #2 it will cheaper to move to AZ pick than NE pick. But if its not JJM and its Nabers, I'm 100% good with that too.
Bears - CW
Commanders- daniels
Pats - Maye
Arizona- mh Jr
Chargers - nabers
Not sure why you guys are stressing yourself over the obvious
WR or Corum at 70.
So many opportunities to transform this offense.

Yes it would.

No, Chargers appear to be taking an OT.

I would love it, but i still worry we pass on JJM, which would be a mistake in my perspective.

Imagine this happening and then the giants select Odunze.
One of the reasons why I'd stop talking to the Pats.

Not sure why the Vikings wouldn't trade up with the Chargers at #5 for McCarthy they seem like good trade partners.
is going to
(1) Pats take McCarthy
(2) Pats take Maye
(3) Pats trade down with Vikings or Giants

Could happen if they only want Maye
They have guys who can get vertical in Jefferson and Addison.
Who is the best long ball thrower in this draft?
Penix.

Why in the F were the Patriots even listening to offers and fielding calls if they are just going to take Maye anyway. That makes zero sense. All reports earlier were that they wanted JJMC>Maye. So was literally every source wrong?

Giants might of tried to talk themselves into him by spend extra time with him.
If I am on the fence about an interview I bring in people I trust and keep interviewing him until I feel good either way.
If you love someone it might be one round and you lock it down.
Just another prospective

Not sure why you guys are stressing yourself over the obvious
So, per your logic, it’s “obvious” that Minnesota had no intention of trying to trade up within the top 6? ::eye roll::
Not sure, but the oddsmakers certainly believe (-900) Daniels to Commanders.
Because they’ve been saying it for weeks
And more nuts when JJM slips to 8
It could 10000% be NE trying to negotiate through the media

Per reasonable logic....
(3) Why would the Patriots trade out of 3 when they need a franchise QB and a projected franchise QB is available for them
(4) AZ needs a #1 after committing to K. Murray. Why would they pass on a projected game changer for some additional 2nd round picks?
(5) Chargers got rid of both their WRs. You think their "fresh start" is passing on Nabers for additional picks?

Hey, the owner can sell more jerseys though. And I'm sure plenty of fans will eat it up like they always do.

A new QB is selling far more jerseys than a WR

Betting odds strongly suggest chargers going OT.
Right. We're going to get a very good player if we stay at #6, or a haul if we trade down.

Hey Sean, you’ve been following this soap opera as closely as anyone on the site:

Hysteria

stick at 6 for a WR, or trade down.... lot's of possibilities
Schoen: "No. That's just what they'll be expecting us to do."
LOL
Sorry for essentially asking same question again, but is that what you’re hearing or just seeing on Twitter?
WHAT!?! How do you shop the pick like they did if they're really prepared to bank their franchise on him?
Long story short, sit back and enjoy because no one has a clue.
Rico : 7:45 pm : link : reply : Delete
we probably won't trade up.
Long story short, sit back and enjoy because no one has a clue.
Pelissero just said that the league sources expect it is Maye. I think Maye is still a chance.
@JordanRaanan
With New England seemingly not willing to move out of No. 3, attention now shifts to J.J. McCarthy or WR at pick 6 for the Giants.
Fingers crossed they don’t. I can’t have my emotions toyed with like this haha.

The Patriots must have tried squeezing Schoen for more picks after they perhaps had a tentative deal, thus the reports from the asshats earlier today.

LOL covering all your bases and probably spot on
@prettyrickey213
It's looking like I was wrong and the Patriots are staying at 3 to take Drake Maye. I'm sorry and I love you guys. I hope I can work to earn your trust back. Based on the intel I was getting that's what it looked like was going to happen. #fraudalert

Gonna need a postmortem from the asshats on what changed. Gut says Kraft got involved and told FO not to get cute or something to that effect
