but does a jets trade countWere you born yesterday then?
Why don’t you take a look at the trades teams made for John Gruden, Bill Parcells, hell even Bill Belichick.
Instead, the sides worked out a trade, with the Patriots sending a first-round pick in the 2000 NFL Draft to the Jets for the right to hire Belichick. (New York wound up with defensive end Shaun Ellis — an eventual two-time Pro Bowl selection who coincidentally finished his career with New England in 2011 — at No. 12 overall after another draft swap with the San Francisco 49ers.)
To say the trade — a real Hail Mary at the time, considering Belichick’s previous lackluster head-coaching tenure with the Cleveland Browns (1991-95) — worked out for New England would be the understatement of the century. Belichick drafted a quarterback named Tom Brady in the sixth round in 2000 and quickly won a Super Bowl in his second season as the Patriots’ head coach, kickstarting an unprecedented run of dominance for the organization.
