Getting one position doesn't prevent getting the other.No. I want a cornerback. We don't need pass catchers. We need guys who stop them.
He hasn't managed to get over 3.9 yards a carry ever, in his career. Blount, Bolden and Gray all have career avgs of 4.6 yards a carry.Not claiming he's the next Walter Payton but he had 969 yards in 12 games as a starter in 2013 against mostly stacked lines, Kellen Clemons as his QB and a bad OL. He's better than you say he is. Patriots don't have anyone at RB too far above JAG level anyway, I'm sure they'll add to the RB's this weekend one way or another.

Agreed. But if getting another pass catcher prevents us from getting a corner, I'll be justifiably displeased. Scoring through the air is our strength with the guys we have. Most OC in the NFL would sell their souls for a crew comprised of Lafell, Edelman, Amendola, Gronkowski, Chandler and the others. Most DC would sell their souls to have their offense throw against a crew comprised of Ryan, Dennard, Arrington, Harmon and the others. Butler, hopefully, will continue to grow and McCourty is fine. But, losing Browner and Revis was huge. We need corners.Getting one position doesn't prevent getting the other.

Trades, draft.I agree we need corners, just don't know where any significant improvement is going to come from.
I don't know enough about Floys. But wrt to Stacy: Any guy who says "I'm not happy with my reps, so I want outta here" is a really bad fit for a BB coached team.
