That means we'd have two good players picked instead of one.the 28th and (possibly) a 6th for 2 seconds? (jets have 2, TB has 2, Miami has 2).
would you pull that trigger?
one big problem, alot of other teams are looking to do the same, so their competition for a deal will be crowded, also what player at 24 or 28 would be worth a 2 and a first next year?its been said that there is 18 or so first round grade prospects, so the player at 24 or 28 must be someone special for some one to give up a 1 next yearHeck, I'd add a 5th instead of the 6th and do it. That means we'd have two good players picked instead of one.
I hope the team trades away some of the 5th-7th rounders (or at least the picks they are allowed to trade) in order to move up from their current third round position. There's apparently a lot of talent available from mid-first round to third/fourth round.
what REiss is saying isnt anything that most people assumed might happen, again all hes saying is if the right oppurnity is there, something might happen you can say that about any team , it sounds more of a generalization than something based on fact, even if it was a fact lots of things need to fall into place before something happens, which is like any draftIn Reiss Pieces:
"Top draft deals
The Patriots are interested in trading out of the first round if the opportunity presents itself in this weekend's NFL draft. The interest in a trade involving draft picks for draft picks is not surprising given the team's history.
Since vice president of player personnel Scott Pioli and head coach Bill Belichick teamed up to run the Patriots' football operation in 2000, they have made 21 trades involving solely picks as the draft was taking place. The 2001 and 2003 drafts marked the high points, with six pick-for-pick deals apiece during the draft."
What's interesting about this is Reiss language, He's not usually one to go out on a limb with unsourced speculation. But here we have the Patriots are interested, not might be or could be, but are.
Is the FO perhaps using him as a herald to the rest of the league to take a look at one of these two picks?
i think Patriots are interested in anything really. They dont mind moving up..moving down..trading for next year..trading for a player.
Beioli are open to everything that can help us
We have 10 picks of which 4 are untradeable kind. SO i can then move one first rounder to next year as we do not have too many rooster spots.
Yeah,I hate having not enough 'rooster spots' - Prefer more Chicken or Hen spots instead
2nd round. LaMarr Woodley.
DO IT.
For what??
Well, I hope they don't trade out of the first round. Their record from 1st's to 2nd's is drastically different. They don't miss with their 1st rounders, whereas their 2nd's have been real mixed bags. For example, Mankins, Watson, Maroney, Graham, Wilfork, Warren, etc. Vs. C.Jackson, Klemm, B.Johnson, Marquise Hill. Now, granted, Eugene Wilson, Matt Light, and Branch were second rounders, but it seems the Pats don't miss in the first, whereas they bat .500 in the 2nd round.

GMs make these "weak draft, only 10 good players" comments every year, and every year they're full of $hite. In the "weak draft" of 2005 Logan Mankins, maybe the best guard in the NFL, was available at #32. The problem isn't that there aren't enough good players, it's that the GMs can't tell who the good players are. If the Pats trade down it's not because there aren't enough good players, it's because there are too many and the Pats want more of them.
or is he being used to disseminate disinformation?
