What does Mac Jones trade mean for Patriots? 

I'm a Jaguars fan, and I'm actually really cool with this pick. First we have a really good backup if Trevor gets hurt. Part of why we had issues late in last season was Trevor was playing hurt. Now we have a viable backup who can fill in. Second, Mac Jones now has a low pressure environment where he can learn from Doug and his staff as well as Trevor. Finally he can either stay as a backup or if he learns and gets better will be really good trade bait in a year or two.

Honestly, I don't know what to feel about this. Mac Jones probably won't get another opportunity, but at the same time he gets a fresh start. The staffing of Bill belichick really ruined Mac jones, but hopefully he gets another opportunity. As a Patriots fan, I wonder who will actually get with pick number 3

Any team that wanted Mac Jones as a starter could have had him... Not one team / let that sink in

He was an alternate in the pro bowl, meaning he was a backup. In the end, everyone ends up where they’re supposed to be.

Idk but the pats need HELP BAD.

Sad situation in all honesty. The worse part is the Jaguars isn’t really the greatest destination for his situation.

It’s just to get a good backup for Trevor.. he gets hurt a lot.. mac just needs to work on his game when he comes in be good… you have an offensive coach.. sit and maybe next year maybe get to competitive for a starting job next season

So many good vet qbs in gree agency id like marvin harrison jr at 3 and snag a qb free agent

Doesn't mean much... Just means we need to get a new QB. Again

Man y'all... Every time I see this show, I think "we used to have Kay Adam's..."

They traded Mac Jones for a 6th round pick and a bag of sunflower seeds.😅 Flavor is unknown.....

It means that they have a sixth round pick to use on a QB

Jamie, my family shall look forward to watch you in Los Angeles, after The Hiatus? Have fun & God bless !

He had to go start fresh somewhere .. bill shattered this dude completely I feel bad for him

Weird trade. Way too cheap. And why to the Jaguars? They already have a good QB and a backup QB.

either they say they role with zappie and draft a wide out for him or draft a qb to start or to sit and learn

Going Harrison and then trading up for Penix would be fun

We now have 2 first round QBs from 2021 nfl draft on our roster! Go Jags!

Charlie Brown Jones got a rock

When he had an actual good OC in Josh he was decent. Then he got coordinated into oblivion like many qbs sadly do. It is so important for young players, especially qbs, to get consistent coaching in their early years. Even elite qbs like Mahomes wouldn’t be where they are if not for solid coaching

Better be either Daniels or Harrison at 3 anything else , like trading down I am done with the pats until, the krafts are out as well

Mac lost me when he went Full Grayson and started tripping people and hitting them in the nuts. Punk moves.

🐆 🏈

it means brian house will be our starting qb cause we’re gonna trade the third pick to draft a full back and kicker

Mac had no coaching and no O-Line or receiving threats. Wtf kinda chance did the kid have

Patriots were shopping Mac for a 5th Round Pick and had no takers. Then they had to make phone calls to collect a 6th Round Pick for Mac Jones. He's lucky the Jaguars agreed to take him for a 6th Round as backup QB's are a dime a dozen and no one gives up any draft picks for that position.

I hope Mac does good somewhere else.

They rip on Mac jones for 2 years but now defend him

It means we’re drafting a QB instead of MHJ

Mac wants Mac wants Cassells career. 10 more years of paychecks without getting beaten up every weekend

Patriots two most valuable assets are both worth pocket lint. At least Mac Jones was worth a 6th round pick. Bill Belichick wishes he was worth a 6th round pick.

Drake Maye would be the most upsetting selection

He was NOT better than Cam Newton who went 7-8 throwing to damiere byrd, nkeal harry, and jakobi meyers. Cam had 23 total tds in that covid season 15 games but mac had 22 in 17 games with much better receiving options and made a phony pro bowl over josh allen lol mac jones has always sucked

It means the Jags have a backup qb

It means we’re going to take Jaden or Drake and they are going to be great quarterbacks within a couple years. We are going to build around them correctly. Patriots will be back in the mix within three years.

Not the Mac Jones Jersey they trying sell..😂😂

Who's Cam Nu-in?

Jones might be better off getting away from the crumbling mess in New England.

Bs, they said the same about. Marcus marioto, and they got rid of him

Mac has a weak arm and it results in slower throws downfield that are then more prone to interceptions. He does make a good backup but not for a WR1. He does not have locker room charisma.

Thank you so much NFL for the best news here is a gift🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁

It means they moving on from him lol 😂

That they’re gonna get better… 😂😈

Trevor gonna take next step???

No chances he will play in jaguars

He's an average quarterback simple

Off topic, but can Kyle Brandt shut up and let other people talk, always interrupting, wait till ya turn buddy 😕

6th round great, brady was 6th round 199th. History repeats itself😊.

Mac is coming home to Duuuvvvallll! Jacksonville favorite Son

It means the Kansas City Chiefs are starting Caleb Williams brooo duuuuhhhh 👁️👄👁️

It means you had better surround the next young qb with an offensive coordinator offensive line and a wr or two or you will be blaming them next as great a head coach as bill was he was a horrible gm

He deserves it, the guy wasn’t doing his job

HARRISON

Mac was good for a 7 game stretch his rookie year that was it! ever since that wind game in buffalo he has never been the same, look at the stats. the team was not winning because of him, it was the run game and the defense! Mac Jones was a cry baby soft brat (rookie year vs NOLA, pouting on the bench after the game and Bill had to drag him off the field). zappe looked better in Patricas offense and yes struggled at times this year but was still better than Mac. lets not forget he is a poor sport and a dirty player

He should’ve went to Seattle man 😭

Lol

Corky Jones.

Why is everyone assuming the QB pick for New England is going to be Jayden Daniels or Drake Maye? JJ McCarthy fits the Patriots mold to a tee. Game manager, smart, winner. Sure there are some question marks but if there's a "best fit" for JJ it would be the Pats. Multiple teams have JJ as QB2 or QB3 this draft.

Dude played well with a real offensive coordinator, sub-par receivers, and a decent line blocking for him. Year 2, all of that got ripped away from him. He got Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumn coaching and calling plays on offense, his receivers were last in the league in separation and big plays, and his offensive line became a revolving door. On top of that, he was playing hurt. And after THAT disaster, they got a new offensive coordinator (the third in three years), let his best/favorite receiver walk in free agency because they were too cheap, and proceeded to ignore every one of the offensive issues from the previous years. Now add to that all of the drops and he actually played average compared to the rest of the league. He just had noone around him that could play, as we saw with Zappe. Nothing worked and Mac was the fall guy.

Im first oof nvm im was too late

He’s not not no Tom Brady there is going to be Jayden danils to fill Mac jones shoes when I frist saw Brady’s first year was in New York they were playing the jets two times we got kicked off every single time we played Against him I knew that we lost

Mac was an inconsistent, nervous, crybaby. Bill O’Brien as your OC isn’t sexy by any means, but as a Patriots fan, Mac cracked under pressure. At what point does the individual holding the role of quarterback take some of the blame? He isn’t a child, he’s a young man, same age as me. I respect him for his time and football abilities, but I and many people know that Mac was at least half of the problem, if not 3 quarters of it.

First

Bye bye Lawrence!

He might say I'm done, because football has been toxic for him.

Should have kept Mac, drafted Qb at #3 and had competition for starter!

It mean we use the 192 pick on Joe Milton or Jack Plummer.

I’m a Jaguars fan and I think Mac Jones will replace Trevor Lawrence at some point next season. Trevor is overrated and he is not a great qb, he is not even good 😂 he is average.

Hahaha sorry you lost your oc once

Means that Zappe was always better. Get that man some weapons.

What are the odds of Mac beating out TLaw within the next season and a half?

Mac jones is the guy who has the huge ego but mediocre talent

Amazing. A first round draft pick, pro-bowler his rookie season, and two bad seasons later, he’s traded for a 6th round draft pick. Talk about a precipitous decline😮. QBs aren’t supposed to go to the Pro Bowl their rookie season, then fall off the map the next two. Usually, it’s the other way around. They stink their rookie season as a starter, but with maturity and coaching, they end up doing better in their subsequent seasons, and EVENTUALLY make the Pro Bowl.

I think they're about to move to 11

I think Trevor Lawrence needs to know his job security isn't solid. Playoffs record is 0-1 to 1-1. Record is 21-30 to 19-22.

Pats going jj

It means we’re going to the playoffs! 🎉🎉

I hope Mac is prepared , because he's gonna get a chance to win the starting job , Travis is too fragile and can care less for football ( his words ) . This will be the Baby Ruth trade for the Patriots , will bite back 😂

Bill Belichick turned him into a bust.

It’s funny how “fans” down talk Purdy but make excuses for Mac

Mac just needs an offensive minded coach. Belichick is a beat down confidence killer.

Belichick ruined him.

Means nothing . Mac jones is a scrub 🗑️

Jones was never given a fair shot. Never had the same play caller and never had a true WR1 or 2

Nope he didn't have a chance to succeed

What do you think it means? They’re getting a new Quarterback
