Butler & Saints working towards finalizing a deal (Thread now UFC Pats Fans Event)

[Palm Beach Pats Fan]

If your're a pro bowl cornerback, then you're a top 10 CB (for that season anyway), unless 8 CBs turned down the honor. System corner? Get out.

So, if true:
5 yrs of #32 > 1 year of Butler?
Also: JAG gets the tag?

The tag is now free for Garoppolo to get next year, anyway.

 

[Todd Bradley]

Okay, so which free agent CB do we add now?

Claiborne? Offer sheet to ****rell?

I suppose there's no chance we could all settle down and stop flinging insults and accusations until there's actually a real update from a real source?

 

[QuantumMechanic]

Wow. I am THRILLED they got their #32 back.

What? Has something official happened?

 

[TennisBallHead]

So, it's Happy Gilmore and whatever slappy (Cyrus the virus, E. Rowe) in the second corner slot?

Not to worry, though, Pats have had great success drafting corners.

If they decided that, then Butler was likely gone for a comp #3. Thus the motivation to get more now.

IF this is true, and we are getting the #32 back, the trade winds up being:

Butler and 3rd round pick
For
Cooks and 4th round pick (our own since NO's 4th gets forfeited)

Pretty even as far as I'm concerned. Not a huge win for BB, but each team gets a player who seemed to want out.

I am reacting to the rumor and hoping it is true.

Too bad free agency is over also

 

[Todd Bradley]

Am I the only one who would prefer to see our 1st and 3rd returned and they get their 4th back?

Especially since we get screwed, as their 4th turns into our 4th thanks to Goodouche. New Orleans really would only loses 11 spots.

So Butler for Cooks, straight up. Seems fair.

Some sports blog tweeted thatbuyler was traded for the 32.... Which the actual Saints account quickly denied.

Ya maybe they can bring FatRevis back.

 

[Bruins29]

Ya maybe they can bring FatRevis back.

I'd have no issue with it

 

[nowayback]

So a 32nd....will try and be satisfied......gimme a 2nd or 3rd too pleaseeeeee

 

[oceansizer]

Cooks for Butler? - sounds like an exchange of two dissatisfied players.

 

[TeamFirst]

Claiborne? Offer sheet to ****rell?

 

[Double TE]

Except Cooks is 4 yrs younger

 

[Todd Bradley]

LOL, welp...
