Could Gronkowski be available via Trade?

Could you imagine what the celebration would be like with Gronk in the Black and Gold?

He would probably cost a kings ransom since the Patriots don't make bad trades.

Well, we didn't do too shabby sending Cooks for Ramczyk and moving our fourth into the late third to get DE Trey Hendrickson...

That's a rookie contract for another four, five counting option year, and gained a cornerstone franchise offensive tackle...

And I wouldn't have a problem taking a guard to shift Peat to Left Tackle full time or moving Ramczyk to Left Tackle...

A Left Guard or a Right Tackle would be easier to replace than the vaunted Left Tackle position that we trade Mr. Glass (Armstead)...

With that being said, it wouldn't surprise me to see the Saints FO pick an O lineman (center/guard) early.

Me, too. C/G would be nice since Bushrod is a short-time fix.

Why not Price who was 1st round (higher than 27) before his pec injury at the Combine.

Who cares about that injury if we lock down a OG then (after Unger) a Center for a decade?

This turned out to be bogus and Florio was not amused...

...That is a humorous anecdote. I can’t wait to tell that one at parties and other social gatherings.

I told Curtis I’m not happy about any of this. Needless to say, nothing WEEI ever reports again will be taken seriously in this space. It’s hard enough to keep people up to date on everything that’s happening in the NFL without people throwing gratuitous and unfunny hurdles in our path...
