The New England Patriots were interested in trading for Arizona Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald last offseason, according to a trusted source of CSNNE.com’s Tom E. Curran.
Footballguys View: The Patriots sure could have used a receiver like Fitzgerald this year. Once Rob Gronkowski was lost for the season, the Patriots didn’t have any weapons in the passing game who could stretch the field. Danny Amendola failed to adequately replace Wes Welker this year, and he could barely stay healthy enough to play. Julian Edelman was a favorite target for Tom Brady, but he’s best at working underneath routes. We’ll see if the Patriots attempt to make a big splash in free agency this year.
