Since Butler has already been brought up as a possible trade option for NE, I'm starting this year's version of the All-Too-Early Trade Speculation thread.
Even if Butler stays, my first bet for the patented in-season trade target is DE Alex Okafor, former 4th round pick for the Cards who signed a 1-year deal with the Saints this summer:
P.S. Continuing with the Longhorns theme, LB Sam Acho (Bears) is also UFA next year. Another versatile, smart, special teamer player who could be a backup at the LB position.
Even if Butler stays, my first bet for the patented in-season trade target is DE Alex Okafor, former 4th round pick for the Cards who signed a 1-year deal with the Saints this summer:
- In last year of his rookie contract
- Fits body type at 6'4", 260 lbs (Wise is 6'5", 274 lbs)
- Versatile - has played multiple spots on the DL (and stint at OLB)
- Considered to be a "leader" and having high motor out of Texas
- Speaking of, was a teammate of Malcom Brown
- Played ST for both Cards and Saints
