[Mike Kadlick] Eliot Wolf on if he thinks people are underestimating what the #Patriots have on offense: “I do, yes. We have NFL receivers. We have NFL tight ends. We have NFL running backs. We have NFL offense lineman. We feel good about where we are.”

“technically” those are NFL players
Yeah I’m aware they feel good about the offensive line, they told us as much last year. The team might have NFL caliber players but they aren’t difference makers which is gonna take time to find.
Gotta admit. That is a solid “no answer” answer.
I’m going to assume that wasn’t a typo, and we have 1 offensive lineman.
If we do something stupid like trade down and take a defensive player who is projected to go in the 3rd I will eat Eliot wolf alive
I mean on one hand if he admits we suck he’s insulting every player in the locker room. On the other hand if he actually believes our offense is fine then…uh well I can’t wait to be one of the worst teams in the league again!
He has to say this. The more concerning quote isn’t mentioned in the tweet, he said they feel confident that due to their work in FA they don’t have to draft for need on offense.. which is bananas if he actually believes it
Of all the offenses in the NFL, ours is certainly one of them.
“We feel good about where we are.”
As in you have enough players to meet the minimum number required? Considering no GM is going to say their team is trash, this is probably the most damning comment about their team’s roster I’ve seen.
FUN FACT: Any athlete currently on an NFL roster is indeed an “NFL” Player
Oh no
nfl players on shit teams who wouldn’t make the cut on a legit contender is what he meant to say.
What do you want him to say?
“Those people are right. Our offense is shit top to bottom and it’s going to take a miracle couple of years to get it anywhere near good”
That’s a quick way to alienate your current players and destroy any morale
LOL
Tbh, we are pretty good on the OL besides LT. Obviously you could argue thats the most inportant part but this is deep draft class for that. Onwenu is a dog and should lock down RT. Sidy Sow and Cole stranger were playing well until the end of the year and Andrews is proven commodity.
I think people are exaggerating the deficiency of talent on offense. Clearly we don’t have a QB, WR1, or LT, but other than that our starting OL with depth is great, TE is fine(could use a young developmental guy), RB is fine/another young depth piece would be nice. QB will be addressed with the 3rd pick. WR has decent depth, just need that primary X guy who I’m confident we will get and could use an upgrade at LT with just okafor able to play on that side.
* Go 4-13 * Keep key contributors, but make minimally impactful additions * “We feel good about where we are”
I mean … if he means “where we are” is the middle of a rebuild, okay I get it.
Would love to ask him his plans to spend to get to the NFL minimum salary (cap) floor for an NFL team. Maybe with all these NFL players they don’t need to spend on talent.
No matter what website you look at, Pats are one of the three lowest spending teams in the NFL. Without Tom Brady as your QB you can’t do that, Eliot.
I like that he didn’t say quarterbacks
Reminder that what is said for public consumption may or may not have a basis in reality.
Yeah, the Pats have professional athletes on the team. All is well.
1 of 32 teams with NFL players
We have our WR1 Kendrick Bourne 🤣🤣🤣
“Man our offense sucks. We really need a left tackle or we’re screwed. I hope the other teams don’t take all the decent WRs and LTs before us because that’s going to be our second round pick.”
Eliot Wolf
Okay, bro.
This team is going to be absolutely horrible This year, isn’t it?
Every year the worst offense in the NFL has NFL WRs, TE, RB, etc.
Of course Eliot Wolf is going to say this. Bill takes a lot of the blame for the team’s recent poor player personal decision-making, but most people don’t realize that Wolf has been directly involved in all of these same decisions since 2020…
