Seeing Jakobi Meyers playing well for the raiders this year got me thinking of what recent moves are questionable looking back at the past five years. Hoping we can discuss/grade Belichick as our GM over the last few years when it comes to free agency.
Players that have performed well for other teams and should have kept: Joe Thuney, Shaq Mason, Jakobi Meyers, Johnnu Smith, Brandon Bolden? (this one is complicated, maybe more a discussion around coaching rather than GM). And the most obvious of all Tom Brady.
Which ones did we retain or brought in that moved the needle. I can only think of Judon really.
PS. if we believe the reports that Belichick wanted to replace Tom with Jimy G at the time this kinda ends the conversation about how crap he is as GM, but that was all speculation
We would have had to make a commitment to Brissett, you’re right, but I maintain he was a throwaway. A potential starting QB for a low end WR.
