Andrew is really on top of things.. we know for sure the Pats are hosting that Sunday night game.. and they have 8 home games.. so...
Of the 8 teams the Pats face at home, its probably down to Cleveland, Dallas & KC. No one else would make sense to open the season.Andrew is really on top of things.. we know for sure the Pats are hosting that Sunday night game.. and they have 8 home games.. so...
I know it’s the Patriots and they always find a way to win but without Gronk I really like our chances and that would be a great way to open the season if we get the win. Is it September yet?Of the 8 teams the Pats face at home, its probably down to Cleveland, Dallas & KC. No one else would make sense to open the season.
KC makes the most sense. AFC title rematch. I’m sure we will get them at some point on National TV though.Of the 8 teams the Pats face at home, its probably down to Cleveland, Dallas & KC. No one else would make sense to open the season.
Defending Super Bowl Champs are 10-4 in week 1 since 2005. Give me the Broncos, Dolphins, Bills or Bengals at home with a 4:30 kick off in week 1.I know it’s the Patriots and they always find a way to win but without Gronk I really like our chances and that would be a great way to open the season if we get the win.

The earlier we get them, the better.I know it’s the Patriots and they always find a way to win but without Gronk I really like our chances and that would be a great way to open the season if we get the win. Is it September yet?
It makes the most sense for sure. However, I could see a "passing of the torch" story being a huge headline. Especially with the moves we have made.KC makes the most sense. AFC title rematch. I’m sure we will get them at some point on National TV though.
Personally, I’d love to see us on Thanksgiving.
Ozzie was offered a job with people he had known and he took it and was promoted to the top over the years because he was good at it.
That doesn’t mean he ever stopped being a Brown.

Perhaps I find myself in the minority but if the return for Ogbah is a late 4th/early 5th I think I’d rather just keep hang onto him unless the organization feels his medical prognosis isn’t particularly promising.
Ogbah isn’t an above average starter — at least on a consistent basis but he’s serviceable depth which is still more than most middle-round/late selections become.
We wont keep him past this year as he is a free agent and he wont be a starter so we wont get a compensatory pick.
We need cheap rookie contract players going forward, if we can get a 4th for a non starter or even a 5th, you take it and move on. Last year Dorsey picked Calloway in the 4th, Avery in the 5th. Year before, 4th rounder was Jehu Chesson and 5th rounder Ukeme Eligwe. and year before, Parker Ehinger, Eric Murray, Demarcus Robinson, Kevin Hogan and Tyreek Hill.
You look what Dorsey does in those rounds and he hits about 50% of the time. Calloway, Avery, Murray, Hill, Robinson, Ehinger have all become useful players, with half of them starters. I mean I like Ogbah, but what do you think we will get for him since he is about to be a free agent?
Totally forgot he was a free agent; perhaps Dorsey can get a second rounder out of Gettleman.
Gettleman: it’s tough to find good defensive ends especially after you just traded your best one.
