Felger: Patriots will NEVER add or pay a number one receiver | Bedard and Holley debate on BST 

Felger is absolutely RIGHT! I hate to say it because his hot takes suck, but he is right. Jonathan and the old man will never pay a WR top of the market contract. They wouldn’t pay the best QB in the history of the league a top of the market contract

The Patriots were 100% targeting a #1 receiver when they traded for Randy Moss. Brady knew he wasn't actually washed and was pounding the table for him. Just because they didn't pay over market price for a player doesn't mean they didn't value him more internally. If you think the Bills were ever going to trade their Pro Bowl caliber #1 receiver to a divisional rival, I don't understand how you have a platform to speak about football. The Patriots weren't in on Diggs because they would've been required to pay well above asking to account for the interdivisional trade "tax". You're right that the Patriots will never make a Tyreek Hill trade, because it makes no sense to do that until the roster is better. Blowing up your draft capital for a stud player is only a good move if you're trying to compete right now, and don't care as much about the future. If the Patriots even tried to operate like that, every single person in the building should be fired

I agree. They need to get one. Seriously Brady and Belechick are not here to cover up anymore 😊

Is it just me or has Felger had particularly bad takes this draft season? "Pats will never get a #1 receiver." "Don't draft a QB at #3 because historically QBs taken there haven't worked out." I'd love to see him as a GM of a team, just because I think the dumpster fire he'd create would be so amusing to watch. No player would ever be evaluated on skill or developmental potential. Hed base his draft board 100% on what history says is the best position to take at each draft spot.

They tried and failed with NKele Harry and Antonio Brown.

5:56 someone tell me Greg is wrong about this take on Felger

I think Mikes takes are always fair. As Pats fans the truth can hurt.

Malcolm Mitchell. Awesome talent taken 1st laid low by bad knees. He was instrumental in playoff run and Superbowl 51.

Thank you for crushing Felger. Loved it Bedard.

"Randy Moss has entered the chat"

Did Greg just say Greg Jennings in 2010 wasn’t a #1 receiver? Jordy Nelson was a #1 receiver for like 4-5 years in Green Bay.

Bedard and every other Gm are insane, so you’d rather gamble with a 10% chance of landing an all pro QB instead of taking the 80% chance on a all pro WR

Brandin Cooks: Am I a joke to you?

We had one of the GOAT tight ends ever in Gronk (luxury other teams did not have), we also had balance with the likes of Edelman and Welker with pass catching backs like White. The Pats always had role balance and role players, with the GOAT throwing to them and Mega Mind coaching the chaos.

*Omg Felger never stfu…constantly complaining. How many Super Bowls did the Patriots win without a “True #1 receiver”?🤦🏼‍♂️*

Interesting take by Holly: If better WR talent does flood the market starting this year, I think their value could depreciate. Simple supply and demand; there'd be too much supply through the draft.

“Eastewn prwopane dats in yo neighbohood” 😂😂😂

40 years Felger? you werent around for Stanley Morgan

How many championships did we win with Randy Moss and Terry Glenn Felgie? Have the Chiefs had any problem winning without Hill? Please.

Has anyone ever been able to finish their point with Felger in the room?

The packer way lol. Greg blowing the wolf family is so annoying

#1 they just offered Calvin Ridley a boat load of money. #2 Diggs is no longer the player you think he is (and he would never play for NE anyways). #3 the Patriots have never had a receiver worth paying because Tom always made things work. #4 the Patriots have never drafted a stud receiver, N'Keal Harry and Aaron Dobson are probably the highest drafted guys I can recall and both busted bad. Absolute insanity for them to have drafted Harry over DK Metcalf. Pairing DK with Gronk would have been impossible to stop.

bro forgot antonio brown 🤣

Crazy. T.O, Moss, Calvin Johnson, Julio Jones, all WR1's. Will there be a day for us, your right, I doubt it. Need a failing old one. Everybody hates Roster building...

Randy Moss and Gronk who I would consider a #1 pass catcher. But with a QB like Brady, a #1 guy isn't really necessary. But they may need to do that with the new QB

They tried to get Ridley but he didn’t want to be there! And I’m a Patriots fan but I don’t blame him! They have to get better and find them a QB before anyone will want to come! It doesn’t help New England with the taxes and all that. Just got to get better and its not gonna happen over night and not even 1 season. Gonna take time!

Dave "Mr Angry" Felger. Obviously @tomecurran & @PhilAPerry missed the NBC Boston 'angry Presenter' course at their inductions.

Calvin Ridley’s girlfriend is a better GM than Eliot wolf 😭

Does this clown even like the pats? Never heard him say anything positive about them, not once. Biggest hater they have😂😂

I can't believe Felger thinks the Patriots will be drafting 12 next year. That means 8 wins.

Why is a number one receiver so important when a number one corner can neutralize him? All positions are important .

The pats will not trade down. If they were trading down then why were they sending their entire staff to Quarterback pro days.

They can add one through the draft now. New people making picks!

Because you don't need a no.1 reciever to win SB's flog, i remember ppl looked at the last few years and found it is not necessary

Not sure that will be the case moving forward, definitely the truth under Bill. Packers drafted receivers and had weapons.

And the Pats one 6 superbowls without having a number 1, a true # is not needed to win

Fegler gonna Fegler. IF they ever do, count on Feglin' Felger to be there on DAY ONE, saying it's a stupid decision or that RKK "only did it to get into the HOF." God, Dear God, please, please PLEASE move the draft up a week, so Mike The Generator Felger can talk about something else.

yeah, draft and develop like... Garoppolo. Remember that Kraft. What happened to drafting from the picks you got from the Brady trade? oh yeah that's right, Kraft got in the way and told bill to trade garoppolo instead.... and then brady left the year later LMFAO

True, theyre too cheap. not sure why tee higgins or aiyuk arent in foxboro yet

If Pats actually had a number 1 WR...be equivalent to the rest of the teams in the NFL number 3s/4s. Get ready 2-15 coming...3-14 in 2025....its back to the early 90s.

Listen bro they won 3 games last season if thay cant get players its because bill destroyed the image and roster and he did it on purpose because he knew he was going to get fired now stop trying to blame the knew head coach

Felger 6x super bowl 🏈 championship rings. F the wide receiver.

We’re always scraping the bottom of the barrel and bargain shopping

If player’s girlfriends are going to influence where they play, then not only is the NFL in deep trouble, so is mankind.

I don't listen to guys in suits whom have no experience in making actual decisions

Gronk and James White, Edelman all top receivers

Oh boy these guys at this time of the year are just unbearable

Wel just ignore they tried to get a true #1 WR but screwed it up by drafting Harry over AJ Brown… bill couldn’t hit on “top 10” WRs… he tried but still. New era. Let’s see negative Nancy

Julian Edelman,Jakobi meyers,Deon branch no number one wide receivers

So Mike, CLEARLY the offer to Ridley was phony, right? Classic Felger, playing an angle just to make a point. This is Mike "I only speak facts" Felger. Let the world suddenly pay sports talk guys to ONLY deal in facts and not wild conjecture, and you wouldn't recognize a single thing this guy says. Count on THAT.

Take harrison and boom #1

Felger is a pimp

Edelman wasn’t a #1??

Eldelman, AB or Deon Branch are not a number 1 wide outs???? Just get a real QB please

The Krafts are known for two things: ending antisemitism and being cheap

Felger gets paid to stir the drink and gets paid Bank for it. His takes suck- don’t draft a QB but they need one. Says he’s scared to death to draft one, blah blah blah

Well Pats fans just like the current POTUS it appears our team has walked out into the wilderness for a while and isnt coming back soon. Its been a great run America...lol ( cough) I mean Patriots.

Felger is such a baby, always crying and complaining about everything. Truly dont get how he still gets air time

Wish the draft was over. These takes are dumb.

Please FIRE Felger.

Felger is useless

when felger speaks l hit MUTE...TRUMP/FEGER MAZZ/RUDY
