Apparently McDaniels staying on at NE.
I wonder what impact, if any, that’ll have on Brady’s decision on where he goes next year.

I like him, West coast offense, screens, play actions and good balance between run and pass. Though, if I remember correctly the Vikings were bad in the red zone in 2017.
Are any of the top WRs free agents this year?
Green, Amari Cooper and Sanders will be free agents if nothing is done until then.
Is Cooper really likely to hit FA?
I can see Green and Sanders making FA, dependent on how 49ers go in the next game or two.

Cooper FA would depend on the Cowboys cap outlook. They've got a few OL plus Jaylon, Lawrence and Zeke on big contracts. Dak is likely to get paid or franchised. Cooper may get the hook due to the cap crunch.
Sanders would extend. He's vital without needing a big contract.
Surely the Bengals would've traded Green if they didn't want to keep him? I think they'll franchise tag him.
They're a sleeper team to do well next year imo. On the OL, they missed Cordy Glenn for the majority of the season, as well as their first-rounder Williams. Add Green to that, and maybe a healthy John Ross, assuming they draft Burrow... That's an exciting young QB, one of the best dual-threat RBs in the league, a perennial Pro Bowler at WR alongside Boyd and Ross, ... The only problem is that their defense is horrible so they're gonna need to put up a lot of points, kinda like the Bucs this year.

Unfortunately, this is gonna be the new norm going forward. Luck and now Kuechly, both surefire hall of famers if they didn't bow out early. Kuechly is such a stud. As tough as they come.
Looking at his stats, even with a shortened career, he might make the HoF. Similar to Gronk.
Kuechly is a surefire HOF'er even now, same as Gronk is indeed.Unfortunately, this is gonna be the new norm going forward. Luck and now Kuechly, both surefire hall of famers if they didn't bow out early. Kuechly is such a stud. As tough as they come.
Patrick Willis retired just before I started following the NFL but I've seen claims on Twitter that him and Kuechly are the best ILBs drafted in the past two decades and both bowed out before they turned 30. It's a shame for the game, but you can't blame them.
Ahh only 28. But understandable considering his history with concussions. A lot of the character being drained out of this team. Olsen and Kuechly retired, Cam on the ropes.
Kuechly was the first in his position where I (as someone who barely knew the game) could see how good he was. He quickly became one of my favorite players.

Very good player & a big loss for the Panthers.
I’m glad players who have struggled with injuries are now putting their health first & retiring early rather than playing on & risking further (possibly more significant) damage.

Wow. Big news and unexpected (at least for me).
True stud. Wonderful player. But fully understand why he (and likely others) May go down this route.

I was just checking the year Kuelchy was drafted in, fecking hell that's a great LB class:
Luke Kuechly
Melvin Ingram (don't know why he's listed as a LB)
Dont'a Hightower
Bobby Wagner
Lavonte David
Demario Davis
Nigel Bradham
Mychal Kendricks

Melvin Ingram (don't know why he's listed as a LB)

Any draft with two consistent all-pro players at a skill position is impressive alone, even if you ignore the other pro-bowl calibre players too.
Was looking at the 2011 draft and there’s quite a list of names in the top spots:
Cam Newton
Von Miller
AJ Green
Pat Peterson
Julio Jones
JJ Watt
I only looked at the top of the list to be fair but yea I’m sure there’s a bunch more further down. Sherman was a 5th rounder and yea he’s been a great player.
2017: Chad Kelly at Mr Irrelevant
Mahomes and Watson at 10 and 12 though, plus McCaffrey, obviously Myles Garrett, plus a bunch more, yea another great class.
Look up the 1996 draft class for linebackers.
Left out Tyron Smith, one of the top tackles of the decade.
I only know Ray Lewis from that bunch tbh. Still catching up on the history of the NFL before 2007 or so
Some good news after all the retirements: Larry Fitzgerald is returning for a 17th season with the Cardinals
News is that Tom Brady is selling his New England home and moving to Connecticut. Also his family suite at stadium has also been cleaned like never before. End of era?

Wouldn't surprise me, in fact I'm expecting him to leave NE. I think BB wants him gone & this time I think he'll get his wish.
He should test free agency, there is a few teams that really needs someone like him and he can increase his fees.
Glad I missed the jerking off over the Patriots loss.
Loved Henry using Earl Thomas as a blocker after him mouthing off.

Not true. Regarding the Connecticut bit anyway apparently
There is no Tom Brady house in Connecticut, says Tom Curran.
Brady will stay obvs
Like the Patriots were obviously going to walk their playoff game?
Good chance he leaves, but the house thing is a bit misleading. I believe he’d made plans to sell his house way before the season started / early in the season.
But just get the feeling he will go. Fact McDaniels stayed though may suggest that the team wants to keep him. So not that sure that BB truly wants him gone.

If Brady leaves New England, who do yall think would benefit the most having him on the roster?
XFL teams
Colts, Broncos, Bills, Bears, Buccaneers
Bet Colin Kaepernick would still not get a chance.
I’d rather play Philip Lindsay at QB than see Brady in orange and blue.
