Re: Hypothetical: Texans offer a 5th and 6th for Waters

Texans are obviously an AFC competitor and Waters could add to an already talented offensive line. Patriots are in need of middle round/late picks pretty badly and "losing" Waters doesn't do anything since he wouldn't play for us anyway.
Do you do it?

The Patriots have been overachievers the past two years. It doesn't have the talent to compensate for injuries, and it wins so much because it puts in 99% effort in the regular season and plays with terrific schemes to mask its deficiencies.
But in the playoffs a good team at 99% will not beat emotional, talented teams that play at 100%. It's what happened against the Giants in 2011 and the Ravens in 2012.
