Agreed. Can hate a lot about the Patriots but not this guy

And? When has that mattered for Tom? He doesn't need ballers. He just needs players. He'll get his little white guys the ball and they'll score TDs.

Is Gordon ever going to play again?

1st ballot ?

He'll be back.

Not exactly what I'd call dependable. The low tender they placed on him shows how they value him currently. Guy is allergic to not being suspended.

Yes and

I wonder how they replace him?

Jared Cook is still available and had nearly 900 yards receiving on the Faiders but reports seem to have him signing with the Aints soon...

I mean if your buying Dorsett, Edelman, Bruce Ellington, and Stephen Anderson (tight end) as a super bowl offense, I don't know what to tell you.

Gronk has always been Tom's red zone safety net. Josh Gordon can't stay unsuspended. At some point losing good players catches up to you, even if your the Patriots.

People still doubt TB12. Smh

Gronk is the people's champ. Brady...used to be.

I saw him dropping up before and this only pushes it further. Father time catches all.

Ellington

TB gonna turn him into a "weapon" (finally becomes a legit #3 WR). On another note tho, NE has 8 picks and can gain up to 4 compensatory picks as well. Any WR (with their first pick) available in this class could be an upgrade to their current list.

Who's doubting Tom Brady? Dude is a baller and one of the best of all time.

The current depth chart isn't exactly inspiring around him. People have to realize that as great as Tom Brady and the Patriots are. Their not going to win the super bowl every year, and losing good players like Gronk, plus a currently suspended Josh Gordon have a price as well in the NFL.

As long as Tom Brady is still Tom Brady and Belichick is there, they'll be in the hunt. They have some work to do on that offensive depth chart right now though.
