Texans Potentially a Trade Partner with Patriots For Boutte?

[Wozzy]

I believe it has been discussed thoroughly that Brown, Doubs and Boutte can all play X, Y and Z

Borregales can line up in the slot or outside… that doesn’t make it smart.

None of these guys is who you want in the slot.

 

[Family]

the issue with some of that could be that Pop, Boutte, Brown, Doubs do not play ST
Williams is a fairly good return man on kick offs. Chism not so much on kick offs

You can sit Chism and bring up any practice squad backup you wish to fill in special teams.

I swear, some people on here want to make trades just for the sake of making a trade. Nothin less than a second IF he's traded (no way ami in favor of trading Boutte). You don't trade away one of your QBs favorite outside receivers so you can get a 5th round pick.. ****ing morons

 

[Hyped]

I don't want to trade Boutte for anything less than a 3rd rounder.

Why trade a perfectly good WR...arguably our best WR the last 2 seasons for a late round pick? Injuries do happen. I still see Boutte seeing enough snaps even with AJ and Doubs being #1/#2 right now.

 

[Pape]

we will see how serious the texans interest is

if he plays tonight, its hot air
if he doesn't, then maybe there is a real fire causing all this smoke on the rumor mill

 

[Thelonious]

The more I see of him, the more I want to keep him. I'd be happy to see the matter dropped, even if that means keeping 7 WR's. I expect AJB to be a one-year player. I hope and suspect he'll be a valuable addition this year, but that will be another year of wear and tear on a player already showing signs of decline and likely to ask for a boatload of cash next year, more than I think the Pats can responsibly pay given his age and the need to sign other, younger players, Drake included.

I have no intention of getting into a pissing contest about this and I respect most people's opinions, but I have yet to hear a compelling argument that having the redundancy that Booty brings makes us a better team than having a WR corp with a diversified skill set.

JMcD is a matchup game plan coordinator. Booty is a contested catch X who is good at the catch point and that's about it. So are AJB and Doubs and Hollins obviously has that element too.

As training camp is showing us, AJB and Doubs are building chemistry with Maye and will be the featured WR in this offense.

Hollins blocking is a key attribute to our run game and he plays special teams.

Pop is our best quick man beating WR who can get separation.

KW has explosive play potential and a speed element and reportedly has the best release package outside of AJB. Yes he's a work in progress but he's under a cheap contract for 3 more seasons.

We have a log jam and other teams know this and Booty is on the last year of deal. A 5 or conditional 4th is all we'll likely get, unfortunately.

Maybe not directly related to Boutte, but allegedly Houston is willing to offload one of their edge rushers.

I could be wrong but I don’t think those 3 are even average

 

[Uptown]

Allegedly..

F the Bills…but other teams, let us see those day 2 draft picks, edge rushers, off ball LBs & OL..

I'd agree with you..
