PhillyVoiceAs long as we’re on silly Patriots trade rumors, I got asked by a few different people a week ago if the Patriots selected firstrounder Caleb Lomu with the intent of including him in the A. an Eagles content creator put that out there? Anyway looking at content creators, guys come the playoffs showed last season especially in the Super Bowl, the Pats have an obvious need for offensive line was a very logical projection to them, especially with starting RT Morgan Moses playing in his age 35 season in more importantly, the Pats traded up for him! If Lomu were selected with the intent of trading him to the Eagles, are we presuming that Howie Roseman worked together with the Patriots in trading up for him? Really? And then also, would the Eagles have taken another offensive tackle early in the third round if they were expecting Lomu to be sent to them in June? Respectfully, think things through for a minute before you put stuff out , if I’m guessing what the A. trade looks like, put me down for a 1 in 2028, and maybe a 3 in 2027?

In an offense that was stagnant, at best, for long stretches throughout the season, his effectiveness as a running QB was a dynamic that was sorely missed. Without that threat, he became the product of the offensive system. That choice also showed up in his effectiveness to QB from the pocket as defenses no longer had to account for him scrambling and making out of structure this leads is a very interesting thought exercise surrounding QB1. All the narratives are already out there so no need to rehash them. Instead, what happens if we look at this scenario through the eyes of the this offense looks similar to the offenses of the past years in regard to targets over the middle and intermediate routes, what does that say about Hurts? Does it imply he is not the right QB for the system Mannion installed? This is the conundrum we have no answer to at this time. What does the conversation become if nothing changes? How many more OCs and positional coaches does the team cycle through? How much money is wasted on coaching contracts trying to build a system around a selflimiting QB?On the contrary side, what does the conversation look like if Hurts executes the system at a high level of efficiency and the offensive metrics improve? What becomes of the perception of Hurts’ declining skillset? With no guaranteed money on his contract at season end, what does the team do? How does his next contract look? How does that get structured to be both team friendly and put to rest the notion that Jalen is a limited QB?It is such a strange dynamic with Hurts. His successes in the league cannot be dismissed. Yet, his play can elicit feelings of uncertainty in the ability to continually evolve and age into the position for a lengthy career.
