Boutte available for trade?

Bring Diggs back. He’s better than Bout
Will Diggs add as much value as he will cost? I suspect not.

And to be blunt, I don't think that Bourre is even relevant. I think that it is a matter of time until he is traded, even if that time is after Game 1.
 
Unless an unexpected offer arises, we may wait until training camp to trade him. The inevitable injury to some team’s key player will undoubtedly happen. As a result, a team may be forced to part with a higher pick than originally intended; especially if said player is an impact player/team has high expectations for their season.
 
No, it makes players who are more deserving more difficult to pay.

The NFL would've been a lot better off adopting an NBA style cap where players have to hit certain accomplishments in order to get x amount of money. You can't pay guys top money just because you feel like it. A perfect example is a guy like Robert Hunt who nobody has ever heard of when he made top G money. It's been 2 years and it's already being talked about as a massive mistake. Blunders like this make better players value skyrocket forcing teams to make tough decisions.

I've been seeing this bad trend for quite some time now and it's a major reason why the overall product of the NFL isn't what it was 15+ years ago.


The Nazi Basset-Ball Ass-ociation's salary cap is Completely Indecipherable. Want nothing whatsoever to do it.

I haven't watched a basketball game in a few years now. It's quite sad because I grew in the 90's and I loved the game.
 
We're keeping him.
On a 6th round pick salary he can't afford the fines.... twin.. think of this...
2007 patriots top 3 WRs. Moss, Welker, stallworth

Nothing can ever replace 90s NBA.. absolutely best Era I grew up on! However as far as our Patriots.. take a look at the patiots top 3 WRs in 2007& top projected WRs entering camp 2026..

Someone perhaps Vrabel himself must have really had a long talk with Boutte.. he could have done stallworth season like 2007... Under 700 yards and still see a decent contract somewhere.. however he needs this season in order to capitalize on a contract.
