It bears watching only because it might have some implication on Mallet's market price. Flynn has not seen a lot of looks either and he was selected with a 7th round pick in the 2009 draft. So he's an older prospect who was selected later in the draft/less highly regarded by scouts initially.
Flynn should get less in return than Mallet if those factors are considered.

Belichick probably isn't going to trade Mallett for anything less than a mid round pick, and I can't see how anyone would be 1/2 that stupid with no NFL experience and no tape or pro scouting to go on besides some boneheaded plays in limited time.
On the NFLN ticker the other day, saw that NE would only consider a one or two. It's highly unlikely we trade him this year. That said, I could see a scenario where if two of the tackles are gone by the time Cleveland picks, they trade down and pick up a second, then trade that pick to us for Mallett.

ESPN just reported that the compensation for Flynn is "2 conditional draft picks..." That's about all we know at this point.
Another thread on what we're not going to get for Ryan Mallet?
I would have to believe that Mallet would have more value than Flynn at this point for a few reasons. 1. He was signed a year ago by Seattle to be the starter and was beat out by a 3rd rounder before the start of the season, yes it appears Wilson is a legit NFL QB but it still must raise some eyebrows. 2. Flynn comes with a big contract. 3. Flynn 27 and will be 28 by week training camp.
