Trade changed

Posted by Mike Reiss, Globe Staff April 27, 2008 02:51 PM

The original announcement on the Patriots' trade with Tampa Bay was incorrect.

Here is the official trade:

The Patriots sent their 2008 fifth-round pick (160) and 2008 seventh-round pick (238) to Tampa Bay for the Buccaneers' fifth-round pick (153).

That leaves the Patriots with just their sixth-round pick (197).

  1. Looks like nfl.com draft tracker has crashed

  1. It hasn't crashed but it is pretty far behind.
    The value of the player they selected here is yet to be determined but I believe in what they did. If you pick in the top 100 you expect a solid player at the least. They essentially gave up one of the last picks in the entire draft to move up and get a guy they wanted in the 5th round. Say what you will about Brady being #199 but it is basically a crap shoot this late.
