Patriots jump to the lead for Dalton

[samhain]

It would still shock the hell out of me, but I wonder if New England might be trying to negotiate for both Dalton and Green. Both contracts off the books would certainly explain the amount of money they were comfortable with spending yesterday. I'd hope for at least a decent pick in that exchange along with the cap relief.

If those two can squeeze out a first from the Pats, then you get a chance to draft a WR in round 1 to replace AJ. That's a big ask if Green is healthy, but not so much if he continues to struggle to get on the field.

DO the Pats have a first? Seems like they were missing a first or second round pick.
