Word out of Foxborough, Mass., is that Saints running back Pierre Thomas (injured left ankle and all) apparently was close to becoming a member of the New England Patriots. The teams apparently discussed a deal on the eve of the trading deadline on Oct. 19 - Thomas for a cornerback. Talks, according to a source, ended when the Patriots wanted the Saints to throw in a draft pick.

Add that into the equation of what his future here might be.

More Cornerbacks!

That doesn't make sense, the pats have some pretty average cornerbacks.

They aren't going to resign him and they were trying to get something for nothing essentially

I don't think I would've liked that trade. PT, injury prone or not, can be a gamebreaker and a huge difference maker when actually playing.

Pats fan here, and I would be insanely surprised if they were even talking about McCourty. Kid would be in the running for rookie of the year if Suh wasn't being so dominant. It was either Butler or Arrington. Butler is not a bend don't break corner (His upside is an Asante Samuel, takes a lot of chances, jumps a lot of routes, gets burned, and doesn't play the run game particularly well) and Arrington is a special teams guy who covers deep threats particularly well, but is below average in every other category.
