(2 min. video)Patriots Unfiltered: Pondering who will coach the defense; Draft talk; More. (2 hours)LOCAL LINKSMichael Hurley skewers Andrew Brandt’s bad take on Rob Gronkowski: “Would Gronkowski have been safer from a flying helmet tearing apart his knee ligaments if the ladies had been wearing one-pieces instead of bikinis? Perhaps if those gals had shown some more decency by covering up with a sarong, Gronkowski’s spine would have been able to better handle the rigors of getting hit by NFL linebackers and safeties. Same goes for his head being protected from a concussion, or his forearm snapping.”/Worth a read.Justin Leger takes Andrew Brandt to task for his implication of Gronk: A “free pass” never was given to Gronk, it was earned.Matt Dolloff also disagrees with Andrew Brandt, stating that actually it’s NOT a fair question “to ask whether Gronk would have been injured less and had a more productive career had he partied less.”“Partying had nothing to do with Gronk tearing his ACL when T.J. Ward launched his helmet into his knee. It had nothing to do with his back issues that preceded his NFL career... And it definitely had nothing to do with the concussion he suffered when the Jaguars’ Barry Church lit him up in the 2017 AFC Championship Game.”Alex Reimer notes WEEI guest Andrew Brandt tries to defend his lazy, bad take about Gronk receiving an undeserved ‘free pass’ for partying.Evan Lazar’s best Patriots draft fits: Edge defenders.Mike Reiss gives us the details on Michael Bennett’s reworked contract.J.P.
