jbt Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2016/03/15/patriots-trade-chandler-jones-to-cardinals/ In the most surprising trade of the year so far,Chandler Jones is heading from New England to Arizona. Jones has been traded from the Patriots to the Cardinals in exchange for guard Jonathan Cooper and a second-round draft pick, Adam Schefter and Dianna Russini of ESPN report. The Cardinals believed heading into the offseason that their biggest need was a pass rusher, and now they have a very good one. This is the kind of trade that could put the Cardinals over the top and make them Super Bowl favorites. But there are also risks: Jones is heading into the final year of his contract in 2016, and it’s possible that Jones will leave Arizona in free agency a year from now. The potential of Jones leaving in free agency is surely part of the Patriots’ calculation in making this trade. Cooper was considered one of the best guard prospects ever when the Cardinals took him with the seventh overall pick with the seventh overall pick in the 2013 NFL draft, but he’s struggled with injuries and generally been a disappointment. The Patriots must still think he has a lot of potential — perhaps more potential in the future than Jones, even though on first blush it would appear that the Cardinals got the better player in this deal.

Beerfish Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Cooper is an underachiever who was going to be moved to center. The Pats interior line just holds all the time and never gets called, they needed to get a tackle. Pats fleeced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriot Killa Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Cooper never panned out. Probably not going to be an All star for the Pats either. Only good part about this for NE is that now they have 2 second round picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRL Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 With all the drug nonsense that went on with Jones late in the year NE probably knows there's more to come. Because to me they didn't get full value, ARZ #2 pick is low and Cooper has been a massive disappointment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're wrong, all teams have a former Jets' employee (intern) as commissioner. During that 1983 year it's amazing how he was able to force Brady and Belichick to systematically cheat over 25 years later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangers9 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 This kind of reminds me of the Richard Seymour trade. It's all about Jone's upcoming free agency and NEP not wanting to pay him. They don't believe in paying or over paying. They get the best years out of a player and then let them walk unless they can get something for them.
