DanInSouthBuffalo Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 (edited) A 2nd round pick and only started a handful of games in 2yrs. Hmmmm. Considering the lack of depth I wonder if the Bills would be interested? http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=32940&draftyear=2009&genpos=CB Edited September 6, 2011 by DanInSouthBuffalo

Between him and Meriweather, they're giving up on some high recent draft picks.

Rockinon Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 They tried to get something in trade for him before releasing him
billsfan in n.h Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 we could use him like we did with lawyer milloy
CBD Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) Wow! Between him and Meriweather, they're giving up on some high recent draft picks. According to PFT article DT Ron Brace could be on the bubble as well: The Patriots took defensive tackle Ron Brace one spot ahead of Butler and he’s no lock to remain on the roster through the season. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/09/06/darius-butler-let-go-by-patriots/ Edited September 7, 2011 by Carey Bender

PromoTheRobot Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) That is some very Bills-esque drafting my the Zen Master. But you wanna talk kool-aid? Most Pats fans would eat his socks with glee. PTR Edited September 7, 2011 by PromoTheRobot
San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) Apparently it's my turn… Git 'er done, Buddy!!! Not really. The Bills actually brought Butler in for a pre-draft visit. Those visits are sometimes a red herring though. And as it turned out, we couldn't have drafted him at his value spot. The Patsies* took Butler one pick before we took Jairus Byrd… kind of similar to this year when they took Ras-I Dowling one pick before we took Aaron Williams … all four players are DBs and were high 2nd rounders.

Golden Wheels Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Trading down in the draft for more picks always seems like a good idea unless those 2nd and 3rd rounders turn out to be busts. The best thing the Patriots have done with some of those lower picks is turn them into veteran acquisitions. They have been successful at FA acquisitions and trades. Vrabel, Harrison, Moss, Welker, Dillon, and the various OL FAs they got were an impressive group of FA acquisitions/trades. I don't think you can compare what the Patriots have done draft-wise with a team like the Steelers who have built multiple championship teams through the draft.
3rdand12 Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Panthers picked him up. Damn them, it has been on my mind that we need a very real cb right now and i had hoped we would grab one asap. Sleeping Buddy? not sure but i hope we are watching for one.

CSBill Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 damn them! oh well, I suspect he just wasn't that good, which is why he was released by a team that is thin at that position in the first place
