Unlike Carolina who sound like they may just flat out cut Cam soon.
Maybe they don't want to step on Brady's Day (week).
Seeing the same thing, it almost seems a little likely especially with Cam saying what he said and being injured last year and
we cannot work out players at this point. This really hurts players coming off of injury. Plus if the Pats want to unload Thuney's
salary he is the perfect player for us at an area of need and it wouldn't have to cost either of us a Draft pick if we just swap
Dalton for Thuney and our 3rd round picks.

And, I can't see him going into the season with a 4th rounder and a new Rookie if they get one in the draft. Again, BB may prove all of us wrong.
Cam and JW just don't seem like the scheme fit that Dalton does with the short passing game. Dalton and Brady always are at the top of the league in getting the ball out of their hands the fastest. The short routes their WR's on the roster take and the accuracy that Brady and Dalton have are better than Cam and Jameis. And, Jameis just turns the ball over regardless which would drive BB craaaaazy!
But, I'm afraid BB is just waiting for us to release Dalton. That is the only thing that BB and MB have in common. They don't do what the NFL expects them to do. MB could hold onto Dalton just b/c he expects a return on Dalton. And he will not let him go until something happens. I know this is against what most people on here are saying. But, look at MB's past with QBs.
I don't think you are way off base at all. Neither Cam or Jameis make sense for the Pats. Cam is coming off injury and Jameis
is a pick machine. Dalton fits so much better as he is healthy and can take care of the football, get the ball out quick and is
better in the short passing game. Not to mention Dalton is smart and a class act.
Also Billy B and MB have a good relationship that has worked out well for both in the past.
