The black community's greatest triumph over the American judicial system. RIP hero.

"Man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love."

So my buds and I were talking about the Pats and their draft scenarios. This is what I would want...

Give up that number three pick. Minnesota is a perfect partner. Get their 11 and 23 pick, and their number one and a second next year. Pats need line help so bad that I would honestly spend those TWO first picks on O linemen. Clearly not the popular take, but jeez, you can get studs this year.

NEXT year, 2025 they will be just as bad. So let's say top 3 again? Pats give up their number one and the Vikings (and whatever else is needed if necessary) and draft Sanders. They get their linemen and QB in that two year span, and work on weapons (we have NONE) that same year with free agency, (Pats have not spent any money this year) or wait till that third year and grab the weapons in the draft and the next. There could be your five year turnaround.

There's a part of me that still wonders if we should listen to an offer to trade back as well, we need serious OL help, too.

If Brady unretired and rejoined the Pats and won another Super Bowl this year …

What would your do

I’m sure he’d celebrate, my god that would be funny and a giant kidney punch to Belichek.

I'm no draft expert, but that seems like a lot to move up 8 spots.

Now if it were 9 spots, and a 3rd with three 1sts instead of a 2nd...for a much worse QB prospect? All in baby.

It is. Because you are getting a POTENTIAL franchise QB. If I'm the Vikings, I'm sure going to offer at least the two picks this year and the one the year after and I am done with the QB search. Plus aren't they a complete team at this point minus a QB? (I'm not a Vikings fan)

In the top 10 picks lets say, teams aren't grabbing the best guy on the board unless they have no needs, which 99% of the time not the case, or you wouldn't be drafting this high. They have their guy in mind. Don't get your guy? Trade out for more picks. The Pats from all the talk want Jaden Daniels. All the talk is that Washington wants him also. Pats would settle for May. OR they say, ya, he's good, but not our guy. Trade out.

I'm full of hope and prayers the Pats do this right. This is the BEST case for the team IMO come draft day. I do NOT want a QB at this time with sooooo many holes to fill. You will just break the kid.

Trading 3 1sts to move up 8 spots is a horrible idea on par with the worst draft day trade in history (49ers for Lance). The most I would give up is 2 1sts and another later round pick. If the Pat's hold out for more, good luck with your rookie QB and no line.

And how did that work out!?

Like every other trade up for a QB, depends on the QB. Most hated KC trading up for Mahomes when it happened.
