Sanu for a 2nd would of been a good deal a few years ago. I dont know what he is like anymore, but 2-3 years ago he was a great Z.

for a similar price you could get Green, or Sanders

I think the Pats went for Sanu as he comes with a smaller contract (around 3.7 mil this year I believe).
 
Didnt realise the Pat's were that tight in the cap. Brown really f**ked them. Even if they wanted a solid 2, they could of found a better one or a better price.

Even a late 2nd seems overs for Sanu now. If it was anyone else we would call it a desperate trade.
 
New England reportedly offered a second-round pick for Sanu before the draft and the Falcons turned them down. Now 1-6 and projected to be $8.7 million over the 2020 salary cap, Atlanta had no choice but to begin shedding weight. Sanu's departure is the first domino to fall and clears around $3.7 million from Atlanta's books this year (and $10.2 million in all).
 
49ers acquired WR Emmanuel Sanders from the Broncos in exchange for third- and fourth-round draft picks.
The Broncos are also sending a fifth-round pick the 49ers' way. Truly receiver desperate, the 49ers haven't been able to settle on a receiver rotation all season. Although it's a role 32-year-old Sanders is probably miscast for at this point in his career, they now have their No. 1. Still providing WR3 relevance in Denver despite Joe Flacco's unsurprising awfulness, Sanders will have a chance to push for WR2 value in San Francisco, though the 49ers' offense will remain run heavy to the extreme. 2019 is the final year of Sanders' contract.

Seahawks acquired S Quandre Diggs from the Lions in exchange for a 2020 fifth-round pick.
Seattle is also sending a 2021 seventh-rounder Detroit's way. With the Seahawks dealing with injury issues at safety, the Lions are surprisingly shipping their starting safety westward. Diggs has had injury issues of his own, playing very little since Week 4 because of hand and hamstring problems. He was back on the field for Week 7. A 2015 sixth-rounder, Diggs used to have the air of an ascending player in Motown, but Matt Patricia's staff had clearly seen all it needed to. Diggs should immediately assume starting-level snaps in Seattle, while Tracy Walker, Tavon Wilson and Will Harris will hold down the fort in Detroit.

Interesting, BB finds a loophole to take a minute off the clock...


Belichick, showing mercy for once, decided to punt with the clock approaching 10 minutes and the Patriots facing a 4th-and-2 from the New York 33. New England intentionally took a delay of game penalty but the Jets declined it. The Pats then took an intentional false start penalty, which was also declined, before finally punting it away.


Typically you take a penalty there to back the punter up a little bit so he has a better chance of pinning the opposition in deep. That wasn’t Belichick’s aim, though. Up by five scores, he was trying to make a point about the NFL’s clock management rules.

Because the clock was running at the time of the first penalty, it kept running after the play clock was reset. That allowed the Patriots to run more than a minute off the clock.

After the game, Belichick was asked if there was any “gamesmanship” involved in the decision.

“No, it was just the way the rules are set up,” Belichick told reporters. “We were able to run quite a bit of time off the clock without really having to do anything. That’s probably a loophole that will be closed and probably should be closed but right now it’s open.”
