Pats acquire Ocho Cinco

[TecmoElway]

His antics aside (which I actually find fun to watch), the dude works hard and is a stud. Patriots made a great move.

Is it me, or is Bill Belicheck and Robert Kraft playing Madden in real life.


The Pats seem to get Madden like trades.

[DenBroFan22]

The rich get richer. Lol hes gunna have to change his last name again cuz hernandez is 85

Ocho and him will have to have a little chat.

[rst08tierney]

Well I will be selecting the Pats in my football pool this year. Man these guys always get tallent to win 11+ games each year regardless of schedule

foxboro is about 5 min from where i now live...i may have to take a ride to the stadium and watch a practice

the pats fans here will be just as intolerable as they've always been...hooray

Once again, winning teams ( NE, Pitt, Bal, Gb, Atl,) are smart.

Once again, losers... ( DEN!!!!, Det, Sf, Stl, Buf) make stupid moves, hire stupid people, and do NOTHING to help their team but talk about what they are gonna do to help their team.

I love the Broncos, but this is rediculous, i cant take any more crap years. with crap decisions. Crap players. and crap beatdowns.....( 59-14 )

why cant we as an organization just get our act together. we were back to back super bowl champs a decade ago. We have done the opposite of compete since then. We are the joke of the league now. ***? Im tired of this, i just wanna watch my broncos win some damn games.....

[Denver Mike]

Take it easy..

We arent doomed due to some lazy slob who's only there to collect paychecks and a downhill has been receiver with an alarming drop rate. Come on now guys the Pats will always be dangerous because they are the Pats. But honestly if you guys feel that the Pats couldn't beat us without them you're dillusional. You're also dillusional if you think that those two extra signings will make them golden champs.

it's just the cycle we're in...eventually the pats will fail and we'll win...we used to be the pats...the broncos went a long time between really bad seasons

only twice in the last 20 years have we finished worse than 7-9...we're the only franchise in the nfl that can say that

I think its just because their FO is smart. They actually analyze what pickups can be taken for a steal. I mean, look at Haynesworth, its no surprise that the redskins were going to give him away, and this is no surprise either. These are quality guys that teams needed to shed and the patriots cash in. Then they make them even better and cash in again later down the road when they use them and dump them.

Why can't we get our act together? Because we as a organization don't have the balls to pull the trigger on trades like this, or have the balls to throw the pay check at a FA.

We let the good team get better, when we could be doing the same thing. We are not a small market team, so it's not like we can't afford to sign 1 or 2 big name FA's.

With that, we tend to waste draft picks on players we could have gotten at later rounds, but decided they was 1st round draft picks(i.e Moreno, Thomas, and Tebow) We pass on players that become stars(exrakpo, Matthews, Crushing)

We trade away or cut guys we need, that later look brighter on other teams.

like who? surely you dont mean players like:

Cutler
Marshall
HILLIS!!!! (still cant believe he's gone)
Todays Gaffney Trade.
I could go on and on.

We gave away a whole offense worth of players in the last 3 years. For WHO in return?

Im SOOOOOOOOO tired of what this team puts us through every year. Every year at this time, i am so pumped. New year, new possibilities. But then it all somehow comes crashing down. Like you said, there is no reason for us not to be competitive in FA.

That does not solve everything, but it sure would help to have some help.

I hope to God we sign some elite DT's before this is over.

Seems like they always make the right moves .. I hate it.. We trade for garbage

Agreed, they have some cases like Moss where they get a ton of production out of him and then guys like Adelius Thomas that were busts but it makes me mad, they get these guys for nothing and get a ton of years left...Pats are gonna be scary

[Puddleglum]

Ocho is on the slide, but he is still Ocho and NE still has Brady.

Gotta agree here, put Johnson on a competent team and look out.

I like what the Patriots are doing considering I think they had a rather lame draft.
