The Patriots are the absolute best at playing the rest of the NFL for the saps that many of them are. There are always the teams that absolutely jump into a total panic mode and vastly overpay for a …ahem “franchise quarterback”. Right, Minnesota?
The Vikings were this season’s version of the panicked snow birds. You know…the people that at the first sign of a snow storm rush to the grocery store and buy all the milk and bread because they’re worried about an inch or two will turn Greater Boston into a Donner Party/Walking Dead scenario.
The Vikings lost Teddy Bridgewater early in 2016 and then went overboard and overpaid, to the tune of a first and a fourth-round pick for “I’m more fragile than a carton of eggs on a three-legged mule” Sam Bradford.
