I'd love to see the Saints trade for Butler and give him a big deal. Same with Te'o. I know there are UDFAs that do very well, but Butler just makes me feel like the Pats would much rather have a 1st. Just reminds me of many other expensive CB trades/signings that don't work out because the player was much better in the system they were in than their pure talent level. Sort of the opposite of Chandler Jones where he was a 1st round pick, so his talent was apparent more-so than Butler. Butler was in a secondary with a 1st rounder, 2nd rounder and 3rd rounder. I am sure he played well in the system, but for any old timers, you might remember Larry Brown and his super bowl MVP at CB which he parlayed into a monster contract with the Raiders. He also had Deion Sanders and Darren Woodson in his secondary, which let him be a bit more aggressive.

Would be the perfect move for a rudderless franchise stuck in the middle of the river facing the current of division rivals on all sides and nowhere to turn.  Present or future?  Offense or defense?  Left or right?  Up or down?  Hell let's throw this against the wall and see what sticks.

So now, all that matters is where the player was drafted, not their actual production? Lol. 

Where are these corners that NE created that went on to suck elsewhere?

Hell, the Pats had a damn WR playing CB admirably well a few years back.

[imminent rogaine]

Per ESPN:

Te'o to the Saints

RB Shaun Draughn to the Ravens

WR Kamar Aiken to the Colts

 

And apparently I missed Knile Davis getting signed by the Steelers. Certainly depth and special teams. I've always thought he should have gotten more of a shot at a lead role.
