@GregABedard That’s a deflection. If the Pats don’t want the player, or if he won’t come to terms they’re comfortable with, maximize the asset and trade him. Gardner yielded 2 1sts and a player AFTER signing his re it’d deal. But crying cash flow poverty is either a lie or poor planning.
@GregABedard Of course, it’s good strategy. The Pats wishing away real facts and pining for a bygone time is not a good look for good faith negotiating.
@GregABedard @FascismDefeat Def not an excuse but a reality. Anytime Vrabel is doing that job he’d not doing others. Since they’re being secretive about why, how about pivoting and promoting or hiring someone?
