The Patriots have won SIX Super Bowls and lost THREE others just in the Belichick era.

They have no trouble attracting just about any free agent they want.

They accumulated talented as hell players during that time, including those deemed malcontents like COrey Dillon, Randy Moss, Aqib Talib and Darelle Revis.

They haven't had a long history of botching draft picks the way the Jaguars have.
We have none of that going for us.

Just two seasons agi we were <3 minutes away from reaching the Super Bowl.

Now we are rebuilding-AGAIN!

Shaking my head in dismay.

Defensively they're young still and can add in some areas. Offensively they're also relatively young still and can stand to add some protection and chain movers at the TE position.

I think in about 3 years this trade will look damn good for this team and subpar for the Rams.

In the six months or so since the Ramsey trade...

We have traded away Calais Campbell, AJ Bouye, Nick Foles, Yannick Ngakoue is holding out, demanding a trade, and has repeatedly stated he doesn't want to play for the Jaguars again, we have cut Marcell Dareusand we are now shopping Fournette.

If Ngakoue is traded, the only two contributing players remaining from that 2017 defense will be Myles Jack and Abry Jones.

From that offense, Bortles, Fournette (if traded or cut), Yeldon, Parnell are currently gone, and it looks like Lee and Cole will also depart.

Anyone still think I overreacted?

Anyone still think we aren't rebuilding?
