If Bill Belichick caves in to Ty Law it will mean trouble with several other Patriots. Why don't the Pats trade Law before the draft? What could they get for him? Who would want him?

You bring up an option that is not discussed often; usually, the suggestions are pay him or force him to play for $7 million. We would be shocked if the Patriots give in to Law's demands. To trade him they would have to let his agent cut a long-term deal with a team that would be willing to give up picks and/or players. The Pats should get nothing less than a second-round pick for Law, who would be of interest to the Saints, Giants, Cardinals or Jaguars. All four teams have an early second-round pick, and the Saints have two -- 48th and 60th. If the Patriots make that kind of deal (and we believe they should) they would have two first-round picks and three in the second round. They would then be in position to get Virginia Tech's DeAngelo Hall or Dunta Robinson of South Carolina to replace law.
