Over the weekend I saw Tom E Curran interview Peter King. Curran had heard some rumblings that Kraft may ask for his draft picks back at the owners' meeting going on now in Florida. King said there's 0 chance the Pats will get the picks back.
My question...WHY NOT?
If Berman's ruling is upheld and Brady isn't suspended & since there's no proof that Brady did anything & since the club did nothing wrong, why wouldn't the picks be returned? Is this simply a matter of Goodell being stubborn or is there another reason the picks won't/can't be returned?
King also said that although commissioners are normally voted into the HOF, there's no way Goodell gets voted in bc of his last 3 tumultuous years unless he does some great stuff the rest of his career.
Reading now that Robert Kraft, at this morning's meeting, said that he wrote a letter to the Commissioner asking for his 1st-round pick back, outlined his reasons, and has "put his best foot forward."
Nothing will come of it. I wonder if there was a response.
