The Rams have a bunch of WR, lets make a trade with them... - New England Patriots Forums

Torry Holt
Isaac Bruce
Shaun McDonald
Kevin Curtis
Dane Looker

Those guys are all proven vets and pretty set.

They also have Dominique Thompson, a guy in his 2nd year who is having a big camp and they like a lot.

Seems like a good match with the Pats for improving WR depth.

Honestly,Id rather keep what we have.Being as Bruce and Holt are both nearing the end of the road.Mcdonald has shown some flashes in the past,But again nothing much better then what we currently have.I'll take my chances with the WR's we have,and then lean on the running game and Play Action to those stellar TE's we have.

Exactly. None of those bottom of the depth chart guys are worth trading for. If they get cut, maybe I'll think differently.

Now, I'd gladly trade Deion + a high pick for Torry Holt.

I'd just wait for someone like Thompson or Pyatt to get cut. No need for a trade.

I wonder how our personnel department sees Mike Williams and Charles Rogers. Branch would be dynamite playing for Martz in Detroit. Williams and Rogers aren't setting the world on fire, a deal could almost certainly be made from Detroit's end.

im 90% positve Beioli will not trade Branch. He'll come back eventually and if nothing works..we franchise him and then trade him i guess. or is that illegal like Abraham?

I kept expecting the Packers (or anybody) to rob the Rams practice squad last year. Instead those morons kept Robert Ferguson and Rod Gardner.

It's illegal to franchise a player specifically to trade him. It is not illegal to franchise a player and then, gee whiz, a trade opportunity pops up.....
