If we could trade down a few spots and say get Simmons and a T,CB, or WR, and then a 2nd I'd do it. Not only that whose to say we couldn't trade back to 5 and then to 7 for more. Not saying its going to happen but it is an option. I just wouldn't want to go back anymore than that.

The Patriots have a system based on having the NFL’s greatest QB OF ALL TIME play for them for 20 years. He ALWAYS played for salaries below what he is worth, in order to help the team. Because they are a perennial winner, they yearly have high-quality players flocking to the Patriot on a short-term, under-paid contracts in order to win a SB ring. They are a highly disciplined teams and because they always win, it’s “their way or the highway”. Most player are dumped at age 30. Now Let’s see how they will do without the NFL’s greatest. QB. I could stand for them to go through the kind of suck azz seasons most teams experience regularly.
