2. I think you're wrong about Henry, he has been an important safety valve, and he is still a reliable receiver, he has also been a mentor to Maye which might play into Vrabel's decision. Austin Hooper is ending his contract, and his production was nothing compared to Henry. Diggs may actually be physically better next season having had a bit of time to recover from his knee injury which he rushed back from. I would try to re-work his contract because he was not a WR1 this year but if his legal issues get worked out and his cap hit comes down, I'd keep him. I would hold onto Lowe as depth at least until you know you have someone better for sure, don't forget that when Campbell went down late in the season, Lowe did fill in well, and line depth is never easy to find especially at LT.

3. Diggs best game was against his old team the Bills in Buffalo

4. Stefan Diggs has to go. That’s an easy one. Too much drama and it’s only a matter of time when he blows up . Please release him asap

5. I would totally rather get Harold Fannin over Njoku mainly because hes already 29 and Fannin posted a great rookie season with the browns.

6. Josh McDaniels called 13 run plays all game. Nobody wins a football game running 13 times

7. Guy who said Brett alper I agree☝️

8. The thing is, you’ve gotta give slack to Drake Maye for the shoulder injury and a horrible offensive line. That trickles down to all the skilled positions on the offense. I think the biggest thing they can do is shore up that offensive line. Whether it’s moving Campbell to guard or having him build strength. And then acquiring another solid offensive lineman. And yes, we could use a tight end and a skilled wide receiver. But I think we will be back to the Super Bowl sooner than Seattle will.

9. I thought you did well with the cut candidates and cap space. However, Gibson didn't have a fumbling issue like Stevenson has. I trust Gibson more than I trust. Stevenson my personal opinion

10. It’s a C grade. Henry has to stay for stability at TE and get Njoku or Likely. Pitts will cost too much. Can you trust Hooper or Dipre? Gibson can be cut. Need a plan at WR BEFORE you act on Diggs but a lot also depends on what happens away from football. And who’s to say he can’t run it back another year? He was open multiple times in the SB and Maye didn’t see him because he was running for his life. Cut him and you’ll still need cap room to get a WR1 and OL help. Then you have to pay Gonzalez and get a pass rusher…better the devil you know.

11. Hunter Henry makes no sense. Hooper is a free agent and he isn’t worth the bag.

12. What happened to HH in the SB? He disappeared; was Drake unable to get him the ball?

13. Diggs personal baggage could easily be the deciding factor; he's not exactly your Model Citizen!

14. Fun Fact: We're talking about tens of millions of dollars in "cap space" aside from the money that's already committed on existing contracts. The original Patriots owner, Billy Sullivan, bought the "Boston Patriots" AFL franchise for $25,000 in 1959.

15. 10:38 Antonio WHO?

16. I think Diggs leadership another whole asset beside his on the field performance

17. we need to revamp most of out O line, (I'm looking at YOU Will Champell).

18. I made a post on insta abt played who I wouldn’t be shocked if they weren’t here, Henry isn’t goin anywhere, Diggs,Bradbury & Douglas could

19. Not only is Henry not going anywhere maybe he fell off in the playoffs bc Maye didn’t do as much and the weather was crap?

20. Hunter Henry looked old & slow at the end of the season

21. Could see us cutting Diggs and bringing him back for cheap since he got his bag this past szn

22. They going to cut Henry just because of that much cap space

23. Yeah i would cut diggs unless he will take a pay cut to be like the #3 receiver and Henry should be cut also because there is better options out there for TE!
    We will beed a much better offense roster to get through this seasons schedulecbecause it is ugly

24. Our #1 priority needs to be our O-line. You fix our O line, keep the defense the way it is the best you can, and maybe get another good tightend, and Keep Gonzo then we will become a team to be reckoned with. Plus our schedule next year is gonna be a tough one.

25. Harold landry

26. As usual you have no clue

27. 2 lame tight ends

28. Patriots need to take a hard look at the WR room and decide who they want to keep. They have a bunch of guys none are stars.

29. Diggs will get cut not only because of his salary but because of his off field antics and Robert Kraft doesn’t want another Hernandez publicity campaign. His production is ok and he’s not feared as a down the field threat anymore. He would be better off as a slot receiver like Edelman and Amadolla were. I’d get George Pickens or Justin Jefferson as great Patriots WR candidates. He’s right though everyone on his list overall is better than Diggs. Hunter Henry, Andrew Lucks twin 😂 Needs to go, not worth the money, there are better and younger TE’s to choose. We also need a stud center or left and right Tackle. Drake Maye needs protection to be successful, he’s not a Mahomes type of quarterback but can use the legs effectively. Without that the Patriots won’t be a threat in the AFC.

30. An "A".

31. Keep Diggs, cut the other Henry and Gibson. Rework Digg's deal or convert most of his base salary into a signing bonus. Coming off an ACL tear and still putting up a 1k season says a lot. Plus he's a great mentor for this young receiving core.

    Sign Kyle Pitts or Cade Otton, both are 25/26.

32. We need to go for Njoku and Pitts a Twin TE package will be better for Maye

    Also if we drop diggs we need to go after Olave for a solid possession WR

33. Boutee haven't been good either he show up for a play or 2 then thats is for the game touchdown or not

34. BB always say its better to get rid of them a year to early than a year to late

35. At this point, this channel is just like rest. I hate when people start making content, just put stupid stuff out just for engagement. There is no way they get rid of Hunter Henry. Austin Hooper would likely not be resigned. Then, they could sign Njoku to pair with Henry to help in Red Zone in 12 personal. They will likely restructure Stefon Diggs contract. They aren't cutting a 1000 years receiver who is the heart of the offense. Plus he was open all superbowl… Maye didn't look his way most of the time look at the All 22 film of the game. Lastly with Running back… we need as manny play makers as possible. Plus Gibson is better at catching from the back field than Henderson is.

36. this dude keeps mentioning receivers not doing good in the playoffs like that was their fault lol

37. carlton davis is my cut candidate

38. I take Pickens fr or Alex pierce aj brown and JJ cost too much

39. Pop Douglas is my cut

40. I personally wouldn’t cut diggs. I would try and restructure some contracts and maybe trade a player or twos if you cut diggs you better hope you can get an AJ brown and Alec pierce

41. Diggs ? 😬😬 I don’t think so

42. What a bonehead

43. I give it a C I don’t think hunter henry or snoop will be cut they were detrimental in the teams overall success this year I do agree we will be shopping for a top receiver tho
