Darius Butler agrees to terms with Patriots

Agent Drew Rosenhaus, who unlike client Chad Ochocinco will be able to use Twitter during NFL games, has disclosed on his Twitter page that another one of his clients, cornerback Darius Butler, has agreed to terms.

Butler, the 41st overall pick in the draft, signed (or will sign) a four-year deal.  Other terms are not yet available.

Some regarded the former Connecticut standout as a likely first-round pick, so the Pats might have gotten a steal in round two.

    "so the Pats might have gotten a steal in round two."

    Fitting, given the cheatriots have stolen their three Lombardis.

    Knowing how smart the Patriots are with their draft picks you can almost guarantee that Butler is going to be a steal for them. However, they will surely pay him what he is worth and more on his second contract because we all know how Rosenhaus likes to stick it to teams on those deals!

    We'll see, the talent level that CT played against was far from top-notch.

    Darius Butler played against West Virginia, Pitt, Cincy, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Virginia, Wake Forest, Louisville, etc.

    You'll find he played against a lot of NFL worthy receivers, like Harry Douglas, Brandon Tate, Hakeem Nicks, Calvin Johnson, Darius Reynaud, Kenny Britt, Tiquan underwood, etc.

    These receivers far from top-notch?

    In Bill We Trust.

    "Pats Suck Blow and Cheat" will be wallowing at the banks of the Allegheny when the Patriots "steal" their fourth Super Bowl title this season.
