Earlier this month we looked at potential trade targets for the New England Patriots to improve at cornerback. Outside of trading with the Titans, it doesn't look like the Patriots could grab a cornerback on the cheap with a traditional midseason trade; any sort of improvement would require a major cash investment.
With the Patriots releasing cornerback Bradley Fletcher after being a week 3 healthy scratch, the need for a cornerback is even greater. It turns out that the San Francisco 49ers just released cornerback Shareece Wright after the veteran cornerback complained about his lack of playing time.
