If joins the Saints this offseason, the wont be getting the 11th overall pick in return. On Wednesday, at the NFL owners meetings, Sean Payton made that much clear.The top first-round pick in this years draft wont be heading to New England.We had a chance to visit with him, Payton said, Currently, to my understanding, he hasnt signed his tender. It was just that. We can sign him Bobby Orr Men Jersey to an offer sheet, but I dont think were going to do that and give up the 11 pick.In fact, I know were not going to do that. Its kind of it what it is right now. That makes sense. The Patriots tagged Butler with Alex DeBrincat Kids Jersey a first-round tender, which means if another team like the Saints signs him, theyll owe the Patriots a first-round pick if the Patriots choose not to match their offer. Butler -- the Patriots top cornerback since his miraculous goal-line interception in Super Bowl XLIX -- is a good, young player, but hes probably not worth the 11th overall pick AND a lucrative contract, which is what he reportedly wants. Butler wants to be paid like a top-10 cornerback.But if Butler signs his tender with the Patriots then he could potentially be moved in a sign-and-trade move that doesnt involve a first-round pick (if the Patriots Henri Jokiharju Kids Jersey are willing to move him for a lower cost, of course). Payton acknowledged that if the Saints made a deal to acquire Butler, it would be a sign and trade.Butler earlier this month, the Saints are in dire need of defensive help, and involving . In 2016, Butler snagged four picks and ranked as Nicolas Beaudin Jersey Pro Football Focus fifth-best cornerback, allowing a 78.2 pa ser rating to opposing quarterbacks. So, given all of that, dont rule out the po sibility of something getting done in the future. For us, it was a chance to meet him, put him on the board, find out how much football he knows, Payton said of Butlers visit. Hes from Mi si sippi, and I think it was good stuff.Butlers deadline to sign the tender is April 21. If he does that, the Patriots and Saints can begin talking about a trade. Just dont expect the Patriots to give up Butler for a cheap return.Im rooting -- I hope hes with us and signs his offer sheet and plays for us, Patriots owner Robert Kraft said on Monday, I have a great affection for him, and he actually was part of probably Alexandre Fortin Men Jersey the greatest play in the history of our team. But there are a lot of people involved in that on both sides.
