Oh That Crafty Bellichek

We'll never know for sure whether or not that info is accurate & it really doesn't matter. I'm just damn glad we drafted Mayfield with the 1st pick & took no chance of losing him.

I hope you Baker Backers are right, I really do. When we drafted him I had the same sick feeling in my stomach when we drafted Weeden

OK....where does the "Crafty" part of BB come in?
I see nothing crafty in what is being told here. He would have had to have given up massive numbers of either draft picks or players......much of that team's future, to get Mayfield.
A future, by the way, that he would not be around to conduct.

BM and MM even look a bit alike when MM has his hair its real color and lets it grow out.

Well if what I heard is correct (which may not be) is the Patriots plan was to give up both 1sts and 2nds to move up. So they would have them given up Wynn, Michel, and Dawson.
That certainly isn't their future to not have a QB. The Patriots have had 1 back that was a high pick, Corey Dillon.
And it certainly isn't a forgone conclusion that BB wont be there in the future.
You seem to forget what Patriots do with players a lot of people didn't want.

The patriots have Tom Brady. Bottom line that's it he makes everyone better without him there average.

When I look at the current NE QB depth chart:
QUARTERBACK (3) Tom Brady Danny Etling Brian Hoyer
The Patriots still could bring in a fourth quarterback. NBC Sports Boston’s Tom E. Curran suggested the Patriots could sign Johnny Manziel if Patriots owner Robert Kraft signs off on it. — Etling isn’t guaranteed a spot on the 53-man roster regardless of whether the Patriots sign another QB or not. Etling could ultimately land on the practice squad, depending on how he looks in OTAs, minicamp and training camp.

I wonder why they didn't go like crazy for a R1 QB deal especially one of the better 3 or 4 guys, why Bill why? What tricks do you and Craft have up your sleeves.....or is Tom Brady really some 40+ year old freakin bionic QB?

They also took Sony Michel @ #31. Bastages!

Of course he does, but BB has something to do with their success as well. I give Brady more of it though.
But they did pretty good when Brady had been out. Also everyone's new it/best thing ever QB is Jimmy G. Why? Did every team just miss the boat, or did some of that have to do with the coaching he received?
But you just skipped over the main point. You said for them to move up for the QB they would be giving up the future. That is just simply wrong. Wynn, Michel, and Dawson may be future starters, but that isn't a future of the franchise. Yes Brady makes the guys he plays with better, but it also has to do with everything they do in New England

I have said it over and over and over.....BB is good enough to have his team be constant playoff contenders. But without TB.....I doubt that that teams wins a single Super Bowl, let alone 5.
As for "giving up the future".....from what I read it seemed like the thought was that the Pats would have had to give up like all their first and second round picks for the next two years...and maybe more, to move up to #2. I mean, that is giving up a lot of the future, is it not....if in fact that was the proposition?

Who was the last coach to win a Browns playoff game?
