I wasn't suggesting that it would fix the D's problems. Just that it would be a good move and strengthen the secondary to where we could focus on the other areas that need fixing. But what the heck, they made their BIG DB move with Reeves (ugh...).

Apparently Richard Smith didn't.

Either trade would be fine with me.

The Pats need an offensive weapon like Maroney now more than ever with Brady down. As for the #2 for Brown, I'm not sure Philly would do it either. However, if they would, Brown's a proven quality starter in this league and I'd rather give a #2 for him than risk drafting an unknown.
