Jason your Pats are under arrest.

Theft. The Bengals where robbed. But I guess from their stand point something is better than nothing. Faulk was had for a 3rd rounder so I guess by todays standards it isn't terrible.

[Jason Menard]

That's pretty cool. Thanks for the heads up on that. Maybe they'll actually have a decent ground game this year.

[Don Stadler]

The Pats were robbed themselves! A second-rounder for a runner with 7 long hard years on his clock?!!!

[Paul Stevens]

That Pats have more draft choices than normal this year anyway. They have 2 firsts. Giving up a second isn't a loss.

[Don Stadler]

I respectfully disagree, Paul. The Walter Paytons, Barry Sanders, and Emmitt Smith are rare as hens-teeth. And Dillon isn't at their level anyway (except for a game or two perhaps).
I think the Pats got themselves into a corner and overpaid to have a runner for next year. Good luck to them.
