Let me list a few. 2006 Deon Branch to Sea Hawks. 2007 Acquired Randy Moss. 2009 traded Vrabel and Cassel to KC. 2009 traded Seymore for a first round pick. 2016 Traded Chandler Jones to Cardinals. All these players were tops at their positions. BTW their blueprint has won them many superbowls while MB hasn't had a team win a playoff game in the last three decades.
2006 Deion Branch FORCED the Pats to trade him by refusing to play.
Pats traded ZERO players to get Randy Moss.
Matt Cassel was not "tops at his position". He was a decent playuer, but he was a back up for the Pats. Vrabel was 33 and on the downhill slide.
So basically the Pats have made 2 trades in the last 20 years that fit your description. Not exactly standard procedure.
