The Patriots had trade discussions with the Texans, Cowboys and Bills, per source.

 

Interesting. If I had to guess this was due diligence when looking for a backup QB when it was just Lewis and Tuel, but they obviously weren't willing to give up a lot and I'm sure the Pats* wanted a lot it Mallet was traded within the division.

Mallet is going to be a good player. Patriots wouldn't have been able to afford to pay him after this season. Savage and Mallet. This is a good example of filling a pipeline with legitimate hopefuls (you know not second stringers from Washington st. and undertalented guys like thad lewis and dixon)

That's why he was a 3rd round pick, played lousy most of the time he played in preseason, was beat out by a rookie and then traded for a #6 pick. And yes, I did know and took into consideration they were going to lose him next year. They were going to lose him because they didn't want him.

Per league sources it was a 6th round pick

 

Bill belicheat and the pats* are a bunch of geniuses. See how they turned a 3rd round pick on a QB that they didn't need into a higher draft pick? Oh wait...
