Trade for Patriots: I absolutely love this trade for the Patriots. They desperately need cornerback help. They have a few young cornerbacks, but none of them are playing well.

The Patriots sure weren’t quiet during their bye week, bringing in new faces who included, most notably, cornerback, Aqib Talib.
Well, we’re in the midst of the annual worst week of the fall. No, I’m not talking about daylight saving time or the cancellation of the New York Marathon because of Hurricane Sandy smashing the East Coast or even the presidential election on Tuesday...
