Ahead of Tuesday's NFL Trade Deadline, the Patriots traded for wide receiver Isaiah Ford from the Miami Dolphins. In exchange, they gave up a seventh-round pick in 2022, which could become a sixth-rounder if certain performance-based conditions are met.
Since Isaiah Ford and I went to college together, this pickup means more to me than it otherwise would. However, it's also an opportunity for me to show what he's capable of as a player – not just what he's done since entering the NFL.
I will publish a more in-depth, film-centric analysis of Ford later this week. But for now, here are my thoughts on New England's newest receiver – and likely new starter in the slot.
