I never understood why teams waste money on players like that.

It's easy to take less when you have a massed a fortune over your career

Teddy Bridgewater is being thrown out there as well.

I read Bridgewater is likely headed to Carolina to replace Cam Newton who is being allowed to seek a trade.

 

[Stasheroo]

We've kind of already seen that story play out a time or two. Belichick has already proven he can put a contender on the field in Brady's absence.

That cupboard is now bare.

Dolphins.

 

[Stasheroo]

Out into the worst quarterback market you could get. Other years, there are none available. This year, too many.

Dolphins.

Yeah they have spent a lot of money bringing in guys who will have little impact on the final results.

Someone will think Cam is the solution. He isn't.

From my view, they've been doing that same thing for decades. Only the names change.

I just never understand it. You have money go get the impact free agents or don't waste your time. All these guys will be cut or traded away in a year or two. We have seen them do the exact same thing before.

I hadn't heard that one.

I'm interested in seeing who want's to take a chance on Cam Newton and at what cost. Dude's been very average and inaccurate since that MVP season. Plus he's probably not going to be much of a runner anymore....at least not at the level that he was a few years ago. So it'll be interesting to see if there's anyone out there who believes they can build a winner around Cam Newton the pass first QB.

Didn't they have the most cap room to work with after basically stripping their roster down to the bones last season?

They've still got a ton of work to do at the skill positions. They don't have a single RB, WR, TE or QB on the current roster than scares you. Devante Parker has his moments but he's inconsistent.

CBS Sports reporting that Rivers to the Colts is a done deal. Another head scratcher to me.

Never a great passer and now awfully banged us as a running quarterback as well. I expect him to be cut before someone trades for him. I don't know what team would bring him in to start.

seems like they're going with the understudy. maybe he's another Garapolo.

I think the Pats get Andy Dalton.

You heard it here first, boys.

That's been the rumor for a while now, that Belichick really likes him.

 

[Stasheroo]

Even if he is, nobody to throw to. And their former assistants are picking over the bones for defensive players as well.

And Scarnecchia is retiring, and he was the glue that held things together on that offensive line. They sorely missed him when he retired that first time and undoubtedly will again.

They had a great run, arguably the greatest of all time, but it's over.
