NO, the pats should trade woodhead for a 3rd round pick..... in 2012
If he was north of 30, ( Vrabel, Seymour, Moss, etc ). Pats don't generally trade youth.

He is locked up being a 2nd year player and at most a RFA.
If he keeps up with this kind of play I think he will get a nice tender before free agency.
I was unsuccessful in getting a "Rudy" chant going whenever he made a big play.
If this was his 3rd accrued year then then he's not an ERFA, he's a RFA after the season. But he spent his entire rookie season on IR so this is his 2nd year so he's an ERFA. Which basically probably means he plays for the minimum unless he signs a longer deal.He'll be an exclusive rights free agent after the season. This is his third year. No need to do anything with him because he will be the Pats' property next season unless they don't want him.

But be realistic. People think of him as a young rookie, but he's not as young as you think. He has been in the league two prior seasons. There is controversy about his actual birthdate but it appears he is 10 days OLDER than Maroney. So he's not a guy who is necessarily going to be getting steadily better for years.
Having said that, the Pats have had much success with guys who are basically JAGs but fit well here. They often experience success here and depart for more money, unless they are smart enough to realize they are better suited to be here. So enjoy this but don't start buying Woodhead jerseys for your whole family
I'm not sure what his deal is? Rotoworld has it listed as undisclosed contract, not sure if anyone knows? I'm assuming it is a one year deal.
Should the pats offer him a 3 or 4 year deal?
I'm sure they could get him on the cheap.
This guy looks special. I know its crazy to say he's going to be better then Faulk was, but Faulk wasn't this impressive early on in his career.
Everytime Woodhead head touches the ball, I'm on the edge of my seat.
I say lock em up.:singing:
Agree, Disagree?
Are the Patriots even allowed to?
IIRC, I read somewhere you can't redo a contract in the same season it was signed. The Patriots just signed Woodhead to a deal. He was a FA signing (not a waiver wire pickup with us assuming the Jets contract)
