Good story. Hate the news. Gave a like because I don't believe in killing the messenger. I do not want to lose Malcolm Butler.

I might not think butler is top 5 but christ you can't trade a proven corner back.

I can't even right now.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

DO NOT LIKE!!!

 

[K. Dog]

How can this be seriously considered? Obviously Butler is far, far more valuable than some WR. It just would make no sense at all.

Idgaf what Butler did or did not do this off-season, this is ********.

 

[Fixit]

This may turn out to be true, but with what we know so far this headline seems a tad premature.

 

[Uptown]

Y'all STILL have not learned to trust in BB?!?!!?

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

We need a new GM if this happens!

But now with Gilmore...can you pay 2 Cbs 14 mill? and keep DH? No. So yeah it sucks but once Gilmore signed..we all saw this coming or something like this

Seems like it's only a matter of time before Butler is officially gone.

Man, that's sad. I thought they'd have him stick around beyond his first contract at the very least.

Props to Horse Faced Elway for holding together a top performing D with top CBs and pass rushers.

Butler is my favorite Pats player not named Tom Brady. Will be sad to see him go

This is what you get for liking any players outside of Tom Brady.

You should have learned by now not to get attached to expendable pieces.

Do we have a better chance of winning number 6 next year with Gilmore and Butler or over the next two years with Gilmore and Cooks? I guess that's the question.

As much as I like Butler, Cooks is not just "some WR"

 

[NG Pats Fan]

come on folks! Trust in BB. Cooks is an absolute beast. It will make Brady's job much easier and our team much better. It improves our team speed and allows our offense to beat man coverage from the best Ds

 

[BKapatsfan]

I am so sad

We're talking about one of the best young CB's in the league and a legit Superbowl hero. This team has another Lombardi in its office right now because of Malcolm Butler. A lot of fans are going to take awhile to digest this news, I know I am.
