This is not baseball.

But to your topic, I heard that the deal is close to being done. I just am not sure how he improves the Pats though. Unless Pats fans like you have started thinking of him as an elite DB starting 1 pm EST.

Our #1 corner is Malcom Butler who, while beloved for winning the Superbowl, has 7 games as a starter.
Our #2 corner is Logan Ryan who went to Rutgers like Devin McCourty so he must be good right?
(He's actually has 3 interceptions this season, so he may not completely stink)

Our #3/slot corner is some guy.

The rest are on IR or so bad they were let go.

With the coach being fired I figured they wouldn't be making any huge roster moves. Usually like to get things settled first at what all the coaches want before deciding those kind of things.

NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports Titans RCB Jason McCourty isn't expected to be traded before Tuesday's 4ET deadline.
It was Rapsheet who reported that the Patriots had interest in McCourty, but there's nothing afoot from a team that just fired its head coach. Nov 3 - 3:14 PM

I honestly don't know how you can get any more talent on that team other than replacing Tom Brady with Colin Kaepernick.
........Brady to Tenn.,......."done deal",.......oh wait, Wizzenhunt's gone...?,.....sorry/null-n-void....!

On the other hand there have been examples of deals not getting done due to teams missing the deadline for silly reasons. Like the Von Miller stuff.
Is this from a valid source? or from someone who delivers clean laundry to the Pats and "knows" someone?

:eek:

My apologies, I had two people with the Patriots tell me that a Jason McCourty deal was happening pending making the money work.

If you want to yell and scream at me for being wrong. Have at it.

As I said the money side of it was going to be the bigger issue in my opinion. No deals other than Broncos getting Vernon Davis seem to have happened.

there have been exceptions made in prior years. 4:00 isnt a cement line in the sand.

and yes, the deal is getting done. hes an upgrade from the trash they have back there and he gets to play beside his twin brother.

i break news.
Accurate or not, it doesn't matter.

So Rock have you found those exceptions to the rules yet? Sounds like you think this deal could never happen now yet if the exceptions are allowed then why is it dead?

Again I think you are thinking of baseball where exceptions to the deadline are allowed. The NFL has a very hard dead line which is why so many deals get done very last minute as they know a minute after and it doesn't get done.

I've looked everywhere for your exceptions rule and have come up empty. Just hoping you can find something to show me that trades are still possible.

I still think the McCourty deal is going to happen. One last roll by Bill using yet another unknown loophole.

You don't think anyone will notice do you?
