Patriots Trading For RB Corey Kiner (2028 7th rounder)

The answer to the RB3 issue?

Jam's injury is worse than thought? They are very similar.

 

[Joey007]

Is he really anything better than Miller/Larison/Haskins? His preseason stats look nothing special.

You're not trading for someone on cut down weekend unless you plan to roster them surely. Even if it is only a 2028 7th.

Is this the pick they got for Boutte, to close that trade out?

 

[BadMoFo]

So basically we traded Boutte for a safety and running back.

Ya this one is surprising to me.
As Goblin mentioned, seems very similar to Jam, maybe his injury is serious?
I thought Jam made sense as a 1-2 down back behind Rham, guess the new guy slots into that role now.

 

[Uptown]

I also suggest sending a 7th to Houston for Will Anderson in case he gets cut. Don’t wanna risk it, betting that he gets through waivers..

 

[manxman2601]

Not convinced yet but if both stick on the roster for the year and Kyle Williams steps up, not too bad.

 

[Thelonious]

Sounds OK to me, I suppose. Hopefully, unlike Hendo, he's interested in pass blocking (Wasn't that supposed to be a strength for Henderson") and believes in keeping your eyes open when you get near the line of scrimmage. If this is the trio, that's probably adequate, but I hope they draft a good RB prospect next year. Rhamondre's effort is inconsistent, Henderson has some limitations which do not seem to be on the mend, and the new guy is a castoff, gotten for a 7th.

Yes its only a 7th, but you could not claim one guy off the waiver wire without givingbup a draft pick for this JAG
Another brilliant trade
Blazing 4.57 40 speed
Not even 5-9
Midget
Undrafted free agent

This guy is better than Larison?

He will be cut or on ir by week 4

Wolf can add this to his list of horrible trades where he always gives up more than he gets.

That's a legitimate, bright take on the matter, assuming the two guys work out, which they just might.

It's a 2028 7th. You can't really get lower value than that.

Depth at 2 positions???
Boutte is better than these 2 jags combined
Neither Reed nor Kiner will be on roster by end of season.
I will bet Boutte has at least 50 catches 800 yards

I think Reed has a chance based on his PSU play.
I said in another thread I put the chances at 50/50 Reed is the opening roster in 2027, but he will have a chance to determine that outcome. He's a good STs player.
The RB is foreign to me.
If one are on our opening roster in 2027 the trade is...ok.
If not, well the trade certainly won't be on the Pats front office resume.

It's a 2028 7th. You can't really get lower value than that.

A 7th rounder allows you to choose any potential undrafted free agent

More valuable than random jags off the scrap heap.

I wouldn't count Reed out yet.
He's a very good STs player.
Schooler is hurt and in case you haven't watched, our kick coverage has been bad in the pre-season.
Reed could stick on STs play alone.
