.. how many teams would have filed waiver forms to pick him up?
31 imo.
If we had put him up for trade asking a 4th.. I believe that 31 teams would have been knocking down Belichicks door to steal Hernandez for themselves.
And yes Peter King even Pioli -if he was still actually employed by an NFL team, would be there, standing in line, eagerly anticipating having Hernandez on his team.
Do anyone disagree with these assumptions?
If your team would have jumped at the chance to trade a 4th for Hernandez just a few months ago.. then Im sorry, you lose your right at any smug criticism of the Patriots for actually having drafed him.
"Would your team have traded a 4th round pick for him three months ago?" is should be the first thing we as Patriot fans come back with after anyone does the smug "we didnt draft him because of character concerns"
