I would be curious to know if there was a better offer from the Eagles, if there was an offer at all.
I honestly don't know if there ever was an offer for AH, but some here and some (so I thought) rumors were, he would be worth about a 4th or 5th round draft pick. Now the Eagles knew MS was not going to trade with them, so what was to stop them from making a deal with the Patriots for a 4th round draft pick. The Patriots play along as long as they can get less then a 4th for AH.

I'll agree it's silly, AH should be happy he was traded to an every year contender. But... I was just asking. I would have prefered we trade him to the Eagles for the 4th vs. to the Patriots for a 5th only to have him end up with the Eagles anyway.
