Wasn't Rey Maualuga a huge draft binkie on this board a few years ago?? Seem to recollect he was a PatsFan Favorite..
Great move Rey, fighting about a $40.00 bar bill, and then forfeiting $53K a game for the rest of the season and probably the end of his career.. great economics "schooling" at USC.
No shame in wanting a USC LB. They served us very well in the past.Wasn't Rey Maualuga a huge draft binkie on this board a few years ago?? Seem to recollect he was a PatsFan Favorite..

Bill used the pick from that trade to get Gillislee. Who was a healthy scratch last week and who has looked underwhelming, especially considering his salary. Neither team got much out of this trade.

Derby was drafted in the 6th with pick #202 in 2015. He was IR'd as a rookie and contributed nothing in the 4 games he was active for the Pats in 2016.
He was traded to Denver for a 2017 5th-rounder, #163.
The Pats used the #163 to acquire Gillislee from the Bills.
Derby with Denver:
... 15 games active (4 starts)
... 473 offensive snaps (25/game)
... 384 yards from scrimmage and 2 TDs
Gillislee:
... 8 games active (2 starts)
... 156 offensive snaps (19.5/game)
... 355 yards from scrimmage and 4 TDs

I take Gillislee 100/100 over Derby. There is no question in my mind that we got the better end of this trade (via the received pick).
Broncos got a **** sandwich and we got a **** sandwich with cheese. Yay. And gave up Blount in favor. Can you imagine how scary this team would be with Sheard and Blount?
You said the magic word...Gillislee will have his moment to contribute. A slow bruising back just isn't a good matchup against Denver. We even saw last year they used lewis against Denver for his quickness.
Gillislee is a better player than Blount. Blount cant pass block for **** and was giving away play tendencies. Sheard was a nice complementary piece that never was able to put it all together after his first year with us. Am not losing any sleep over those two.
I don't even know what to say to the claim the Gillislee is "better" than Blount. Wow! Speechless. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion. But that is just a stupid claim.
