This is how I think the conversation with the Saints got started. BB told wichard to go ahead and make a deal for Jones but to tell any team that the pats would require a 2nd rd pick as comp. He went to the saints and they negotiated the deal. Loomis probbally called back and said that the saints would give a forth. It went on from there. Once Wichard got the great offer from the saints, he did not bother to shop jones anywhere else. This essentially took Jones out of the market. If they only offered the 10 mill over rfour years wichard would have kept marketing Jones to other teams. And the Pats may have been able to get a better package. I am very happy with how things turned out, BB could have not tagged him and he could have left for nothing but maybe a 5th rd comp pick next year. |
