Trade for Andy Isabella?

Look he runs a 4.3 40 which is very good. He did a 6.9 3-cone which is OK but not great. He was a Belitnikoff finalist his senior year with a ton of production at UMass. I don't know why he failed so badly in Az. It could have been the system, the coach, or the players in front of him. I don't know or care.

Ideally we can wait until they cut him, and cut him they will....but when. Or we trade for him. He's worth about a 2024 7th which only transfers if he makes the team. The obvious trade is to send Harry for him, but I think Harry has more value than Isabella right now, even as an apparent bust.

Well everyone wants a speed guy for the slot. Isabella would be a fit just on that alone. Remember it's a 90 man roster we will be building. And I want more than just one speed guy vying for that slot job.
 
This board had a weird infatuation with him during the draft.
Not sure what was weird about it? His 2018 at Umass was legit good. 102 rec 1698 yards and 13 tds. His last game vs Georgia was 15 catches 219 yds and 2 tds. He would of done well with Brady and learned a lot from this team imo.
 
There is and always has been a desire to sign local NFL players, but there are the 36 games and 31 receptions that stick out.
 
Berrios is much better than Isabella. He's a UFA and won't cost a ton.
Berrios had a good season with the Jets and IMO would actually be considered a WR hit by the Pats draft in the 5th. Plus, he is a Kick returner.

Isabelle was a 2nd round pick. So, its not as if AZ didn't expect to plug him in and shine. He is buried on the depth chart because he sucks. AZ went out and brought in AJ Green and signed up Zach Ertz who produced. Hopkins was hurt last season and missed 7 games. Opportunities existed for Izzy to step up.
 
Isabella was a guy a lot of people on this Board was clamoring for.
I would trade him for Harry or Wino.
So you want to trade a disappointing player, for a more disappointing player???
 
what kind of receiver is he? slot?
Kirk was in the slot almost 80% of the time this past season. He played more outside in his first three years, but was quite a bit less productive.
 
I don't know why you trade for him. If the Cards are letting him seek a trade, that means they are unlikely going to keep him on the roster whether they get a trade or not. If the Pats like him, offer a conditional sixth or seventh. Otherwise, pass on him and wait for the Cards to cut him.
 
Yeah, I'd kick the tires if he was cut, I still think he could be utilized a lot more here than there. But I wouldn't be trading for him..
 
Sure, why not?

But he has an awful...awful name.
The last name, Isabella, is like a song title. What he needs to do is change his first name. A two or three syllable name would fit but not Andy. Mario would be a good one.
 
Do the Patriots have a 12th round pick? Isabella isn’t worth anything higher than that. He sucks.
 
I'd actually rather bring Berrios back as many others have said here. Would also probably rather just draft someone though.
 
Harry for Isabella! Send both players back to their home school’s states!

Ps: if arizona needs more, we send them an autographed Tom Brady football!
If the trade goes like this, the team needs to ensure that the football is properly inflated. We don't need any more distractions.
 
Really hope Harry is saving his $$$.
 
Well, we've got Matty Patricia so we might as well add to the Bad names collection.
Pats have done fairly well without having bad names on their roster or staff. Colts have been the biggest offenders since 2002.
