Denver gets 3rd and 4th round picks in 2019 49ers get Sanders and 5th round pick in 2019 This makes the sanu trade seem even worse IMO for the pats. Sanders is a better WR then sanu by far and it only cost the niners a 3rd and moving back from the 4th to the 5th where the pats gave up a 2nd
Doesn't matter. Tom Brady throwing to Sanu will make him way more productive. The trade will look better for the Pats simply based on the production.
Ryan was slinging it too. and they pass more then the pats. I can't see his production going way up. even gordon's numbers are medicore, ABs numbers were medicore the 1 game he played as well. on the falcons sanu had julio drawing all the attention, he won't have that on the pats. his numbers should be pretty medicore.
he's only due 1.98 mil for the rest of the season and has 0 guarenteed money. he's also under contract next year for 6.5 mil. very reasonable numbers. ATL only saved 200k by trading him. it had nothing to do with cap. ATL wanted a pick. they have julio and riddley already. sanu is meh and expendable for them. NE really needed a WR
