Patriots gonna Patriots...

New England just pulled off yet another trade. Sent Jamie Collins to the Browns for a 3rd round draft pick.  Recently acquired Van Noy via trade as well.  Jamie Collins was going to be an FA after 2016 and guess Patriots wanted to get something out of him than letting him walk... GMs should take note this is how you trade and make it effective.

Well they were going to get a 3rd round comp pick in 2018 for him by letting him walk after the year and now they get a 3rd round comp pick in 2017 so they didn't really get too much out of it.

I get your point, and I suppose every spot counts, but I'm thinking they would have received a third round pick for his loss anyway. But, yeah, I like the way Billy B is forward thinking---seemingly always thinking---and thinks outside the box.

    • https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking
