I totally understand drafting a top WR to grow and develop with our rookie QB, but if that was the plan we should have let Green walk.  When we drafted Green he was clearly our #1 WR.  How much play is Higgins going to get as our #1 WR with both Boyd and Green still on the team.

Still think we have a gaping hole at OG.  Would have preferred a possible starter there over a #3 WR.

I find it interesting that the Patriots have not drafted a QB or a WR thus far...and the Bengals have not drafted a guard.

I have no idea how it would work with their horrible cap situation, but could there be a Dalton/Green trade for Thuney?

As I understand it, the Pats can't get Thuney to take a "team-friendly" deal.  So, if he plays under the franchise tag, it costs them over $12 million and they won't get any compensation if they lose him a year later.  I have no idea how the dollars would work.  Maybe it is just Dalton and our 5th round pick for Thuney and the Bengals would also have to pay a % of Dalton's contract?  Or maybe Dalton does a new deal...I bet Dalton would sign for VERY little to play for the Pats...especially as a starter.
