What Patriots fans think of Gay (1 Viewer)

[AdamWest]

Uh, at the price we signed him at, we certainly are looking at him as a top 2 CB. You don't pay nickel backs that kind of $$$.

In today's CB FA, yes, you do.

In today's CB FA, yes, you do.

Give me an example, because I say your wrong.

Here is a link to a Patriots message board talking about Gay. Man,, this is the kind of stuff the Colts message board was talking about when we picked up David and everybody knows how that turned out.

my thoughts exactly, once i saw that the deal was done my first thought was that this whole situation is frightenly similar to jason david a year ago...

Can't please everybody i see.. Congrats to gay, don't know if i'll get the courage to wear his Jersey but if he just out right become impressive i'll buy it and hang it up somewhere, no way it's going on my back.

You could do a little research and give ol loomis a listen. I'm thinking Loomis is saying what we're trying to tell you already.

C'mon Dninc...........it's like the pink shirt idea in the 80's people thought you were more of a man for wearing a pink shirt. The Randall Gay jersey is the pink button down of our time. I call it Salmon colored.

 

[friday]

In today's CB FA, yes, you do.

sorry, that's starter money in the NFL.

Well, Jacksonville just signed Drayton Florence despite having Brian Williams ($4 million) and Rashean Mathis ($2.45 million). Of course Brian Williams will probably move to FS now so

 

[oodank]

And we're paying our Jason Craft 4.5 million a year?

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek2:

 

[st.randy]

Do you guys listen to the interviews?????? Ever????

 

[hobbers]

Someone posted a link to the loomis interview from this a.m. He says directly that they consider Gay to be a top notch slot coverage guy, and that is how they intend to use him. And today the way teams love to spread defenses your third corner is considered a starter.

It's not up to me to argue the point, I just listened to the GM's evaluation of the player and am trying to help people on the forum understand what the team is thinking.

So everyone can go along thinking gay is the interim #1 or even the full time #2 corner if they really want to, and then they can be surprised when he goes into the season basically a starter but at the "slot corner" (term Loomis seemed to like) spot. Seems like a good spot for Randall Gay, and if he excells at it, 4.5 is fine with me!

Which of our present CB is going to play over him? JD or Usama and a torn ACL MM. I don't know if he really is playing slot.:dunno: IMHO

 

[longtime lurker]

It would not surprise me to see the Pats pick DRC with their 1st rounder....

 

[Professor]

I don't know. I say we cut him right now, second tier FA corner or not.

(sarcasm off now... you may all return to your regularly scheduled whining.)

 

[cruize]

He says directly that they consider Gay to be a top notch slot coverage guy, and that is how they intend to use him.

I guess that means he's also confident David is a top notch starting CB.
