Can you imagine Butler on one side and Sherm on the other with Earl covering deep and Kam all over the middle.

You cannot say you wouldn't be jacked for opening day!

So first round pick to the Pats, guy who wants richard sherman money to be playing the #2, and in a year of many big impact defensive players easily available at #26?

I agree. I don't think we have a chance. I'm just dreaming LOB v2

Draft has a lot of potential

Butler is overrated. He's what Larry Brown was. Remember Larry Brown, the guy that picked off 2 passes in the SB against Neil O'Donnell and then took his career into the abyss. Basically the same thing Butler is. Had one interception is SB49 and does nothing else.

They don't have the dough, man.

Plus, why buy at a premium when there's a ton of impressive new stock arriving in the draft?

Well that's not true...

But not worth the money and draft pick

This.
They already have $31M+ in the D backfield. Not happening.

Lane was beyond horrible last year & Shead is still hurt! You guys want to gamble on a rookie...

The Patriots already threw money at Gilmore, i dont think they will match the offer for Butler & rather just get the 1st round pick. Maybe try to offer about 11-12million a year. 4yr 48million.

Butler has been consistent already for 2 years now after the Superbowl pick. He was ranked #2 overall last season. Imagine Butler, Sherman, Thomas, & Kam?

Got a feeling Sherman is going to ask for a lot when his contract is up in 2 years. At least with Butler we have leverage or safety net in case Sherman bolts or we cant afford him.

The difference is Butler made an amazing play. Larry Brown's interceptions could have been made by this Larry Brown.

Larry Brown

But no thanks on Butler regardless.

If the offer involves a time machine, I'm all in.

We have played this record before, he works well in New England, won't so much here, we ask for a different skill set. Besides having one CB that is very opinionated is enough isn't it?
