Not sure if we still are talking about the Sanu trade, but if we still are, I have a few brief comments.
1. I don't like the fact that we traded for a WR in the first place. I like it less that if we WERE going to trade for a WR he wasn't a "field stretcher" speed guy. I like it even LESS that if we were going to to trade for a WR we'd do it for a 2nd round pick.
2. Now that I got that out of the way, let me tell you how I REALLY feel. I worry that the fact that Bill felt the need to make this trade for this price, says more about where he feels Gordon and Harry are in their return to the team than the immediate need for a WR.
3. Sanu has been a quality professional his entire career. I'm guessing a pick in the early 60's was the price that it took to get him. Ideally one of the 3rd round comp picks would have done it, but the market IS the market.
4. I would have rather gotten someone like Howard, though I'm cooling on Brate because I'm thinking that's the same as a healthy Lacosse. Howard was the prize for me. I don't understand why TB is so adamant in not trading him. Arians doesn't value TE's, the team isn't going anywhere, and there is a Patriot connection to the FO.
5. In the end we are a better offensive team for having him. But by how much better remains to be seen.
