If, and I do mean IF, we do make a deal I would be surprised if it was before the draft. As someone mentioned earlier, it may come down to whether what is sitting there at #32 is a better deal than Butler.

Re: Breaking: Malcolm Butler visiting Saints Thursday!
 

The only concern I see with Butler is that he has struggled against bigger receivers, which the NFC South is full of :doh:

Re: Breaking: Malcolm Butler visiting Saints Thursday!
 

Valid concern... That's why we really need PJ Williams with his 41" vertical to stay healthy for once. Breaux can handle them too. It would be so nice to have a great group of CB's that we could game plan with instead of just throwing guys to the sharks and being exploited.

Re: Breaking: Malcolm Butler visiting Saints Thursday!
 

technically we have not had a CB play over 10 games that could handle a big WR. Once added he would instantly be our best DB. No doubt about it. Will a rookie do that? Maybe in a couple of years. I want to win now.

Re: Breaking: Malcolm Butler visiting Saints Thursday!
 

First of all, who said the saints were even looking at CB with that pick. This organization does not draft for needs!

Either way Payton and Brees will go down as someone who could never be cut throat. Cooks has more value than Butler.

What I find so funny is how after the season ends now everyone wants to throw our corners under the bus outside Breaux. Like the pass rush wasn't the issue now it's the corners. What is Butler gonna do that what we had didn't when there is no pressure?

Fuller, Rhodes, Peters were NFL ready CBs btw.

This trade is going to happen,hopefully we give up #42 . I would try and keep #32. I would rather trade #42 and #39 which adds up to the same point value on the trade chart . Keeping 32 gives us more potential for trading for extra picks

Re: Breaking: Malcolm Butler visiting Saints Thursday!
 

Bingo we have a winner

Pick 32 has a long history of being a prime trade pick. So you are actually giving up more than one pick, Then paying top dollar for CB that is not a shut down CB. This deal can turn to another case of Byrd turds real quick with a safety to help out over the top. That is the main coverage package the pats run.

In the long run this deal could cost us more than the Pats deal for Stephon Gilmore.

Trust me the pats will make fools out of us when all is said an done.

People... we never owned pick #32. It isn't ours to wheel and deal with. It was always part of the Cooks/Butler trade.
