In some ways, this reminds me of the fallout of the Moss trade.
Something must have been up with Collins, as I cannot see why they Pats felt they needed to trade him now. Then again, that Lombardi tweet indicates that there's at least smoke around Collins' decline this year. Otherwise, the return just doesn't appear to be worth the trouble.
I'm of the belief that there's a player the Pats are targeting on the defensive side of the ball.
