At what point will you give up on the Butler trade?

At some point this week, the trade will become very unlikely. I'm thinking that by Wednesday afternoon if Butler isn't a Saint then both teams have to go into their individual draft strategies and move forward.

After all, drafts aren't conducted pick by pick but as a whole. Teams may address a need at pick 11 knowing they can address another need at 32,for example. I also think the Pats are more desperate to unload Butler than we are to take him and by Tuesday their asking price will be dropping significantly. I haven't heard of any other suitors for him.

If Foster does indeed fall, I'd much rather him at #32.

Eh. My thinking is it's best for both the Pats and Saints to wait for the pick (be it 32 or 42) to be on the clock to see what the options are.

So it is in my opinion the trade is on the table until pick 32 and 42 is made by us.

If we can get him for a third and 5 rd shidddd best available player at 11 or trade back with the cardinals or browns for their first and a second then grab wat we want and have ammo to move ?

In an alternate universe, the trade has occurred.

NE wants the 32nd pick lets get that established first.
They also want another pick,now at what value do you place him. If Saints don't give up 2nd ir 3rd round pick in addition to 1st. This deal ain't happening.
