Dominant bitch of those leaving Soldier Field Sunday, McCaskeys must go (of course with Fox as well). Fans are outraged at the McCaskeys and their perceived/factual incompetence.

Eh that long post above was good. I would definitely take Jimmy over Mitch. As I said prior to the draft Jimmy was the best QB available by far. He made Louis Murphy look like a pro bowler. That said Mitch is comparable physically in talent level. Jimmy is more refined, and educated in the NFL.

I would take Jimmy over Biscuit because of the experience around the Patriots, but also the cost. Jimmy was a 2nd rounder and I like Biscuit.mmmc_35 wrote:Eh that long post above was good.

We'd get a 1st round (3rd overall), third and fourth round picks back, but then had to give up a 2nd. I'll take that deal.
But at the draft it was a 1st and a 3rd. I think at the time I said I would have done our first for JG and their late 1st, but that wasn’t on the table.The Marshall Plan wrote:I would take Jimmy over Biscuit because of the experience around the Patriots, but also the cost.

The Patriots overplayed their hands on that a bit.

That's a fair point. I recall that as well. Had the cost been a 2nd rounder at the time, Pace would've had to have done that deal.BR0D1E86 wrote:But at the draft it was a 1st and a 3rd.

I was just shocked by the Biscuit trade given the recent signing of Glennon and the QBs available in 2018.

Jimmy G won a game over the Fox lead 3-9 Chicago Bears. Put him in the HOF.

I agree - if the Patriots had offered up Garappolo for a second round pick prior to the Bears signing Glennon or drafting Trubisky, it would have been a chance worth taking ... but they didn't ... they were holding to their 1st and 3rd for him even after the draftThe Marshall Plan wrote:That's a fair point.
