Rumor (funny): Patriots and Cardinals working on a trade...

Hahahahahaha. Seriously, must be a slow news week since the pats won. Why would we trade butler for Fitzgerald? We need defense or offensive line if we make any trade. If you want a good laugh, read this article...

unless fitz plays defense were good.

I love Fitz, but we'd need other things if we were to trade with them.

Give me Deone Buchanon. He could be very well utilized here.

I stopped at "The Patriots are in ‘win now’ mode " . they been in that mode for 15 yrs

A few things:

1) Who in the world is Sportstalk360.com and have they had any credibility in the past? Or is this Erika Leigh and Sharks of Vegas' ugly love child?

2) Pats have ~$5.5M in cap space now, Fitz has an $11M base salary for 2017 (would be prorated based on timing). This trade isn't happening without a contract restructuring

3) I would be very surprised to find out that with all the miscommunication on defense so far and with Rowe being injured, the Pats would trade their generally most consistent CB so far this year for a wide receiver when Hogan, Amendola, and Cooks have performed decently so far.

I’d love Fitz here. However, a cover LB/ pass rusher would likely be more valuable. Also, the Cards are 2-2 & don’t really have any healthy receivers, so it doesn’t really make sense from their perspective. However, if it were to happen I have NO doubts Fitz would swiftly pick up the playbook.

I would rather hear that we are in talks with the eagles for Mychal Kendricks

 

[Gronkowski123]

This looks like a website you'd find on page 98613274957 on Google.

Zero credibility. It's some random dude posting whatever he wants on a WordPress blog.

Throw in Patrick Peterson and Deone Buchanon for a package of Dwayne Allen, David Harris and Stephon Gilmore and it's a deal! But we keep Butler.

Defense still wins. Willie Young from the bears. Wouldn't have to give up much

 

[mgteich]

If folks think that Mitchell would add anything, Fitz certainly would. He would complement Cooks, Hogan and Amendola.

 

[Love The Drake]

Fitzgerald would be the perfect Patriot
However Arizona fans would stop showing up if he was traded.

Out for the year with a torn triceps.

Are you serious? Just saw. That sucks. Well maybe we can get another pass rusher without giving much.

Random sports blog that I've never heard of using the default Bluehost favicon = fake rumor.

Fitz would be fantastic in this offense, between he and Cooks and to a lesser extent Hogan that's three WRs that can line up pretty much anywhere. I don't see it happening though, his contract is all base salary so we'd be assuming a $7.5M cap hit if we traded for him right now. I don't see the Pats agreeing to that plus giving up a significant asset .
