It's only a matter of time before teams like the Philadelphia Eagles decide to trade certain players, with the expectation that it's going to happen in the next couple of days.

With the NFL trade deadline on Tuesday, Nov. 10, there's still another week of football left before teams have to make some tough decisions. For the New England Patriots, there's reason to believe multiple players in Philadelphia could help on both sides of the ball. 

With the most obvious needs being a wide receiver or edge rusher, a trade between the Patriots and Eagles for either position doesn't seem likely. 

However, there's also an argument to be made that Philadelphia has a cornerback who could be a great fit in New England. That guy would be Riq Woolen, who is on a one-year contract and shouldn't cost much in a potential trade. A recent trade proposal would send him to New England for just a fifth-round pick.

“CB Riq Woolen and a sixth-round pick for a fifth-round pick

“It looks like Carlton Davis will make his return to the Patriots’ lineup Sunday after a neck injury kept him out of the last three games. If that’s the case, cornerback isn’t as big of a need as these other positions. But the Patriots still lack depth, and Woolen could provide some for a playoff run. Woolen was a part of Seattle’s great defense a year ago that slowed the Patriots in the Super Bowl, but he’s on just a one-year deal that wouldn’t be a big lift to take on.

“So if the Pats opt for depth at cornerback, Woolen could be an option,” Chad Graff of The Athletic wrote.

Getting a sixth-round pick in return and only having to move a fifth would be an easy decision for the Patriots if they want to go in this direction. 

The question is whether New England believes that it's getting healthier in the secondary or whether it believes that there are other pressing needs that these assets could be used for. 

I'm of the belief that adding a corner wouldn't be the worst idea, but to waste these assets and not use them on a wide receiver or an edge rusher would be a bit questionable.

North Korea says it wasn’t behind the $6.3 billion Binance hack and claims the US blames it for “all the cyber crimes”

  • North Korea denies involvement in Binance's $6 billion crypto theft.
  • Kim Yo-jong accused the US of using cybercrime allegations to harm North Korea's global reputation.
  • Binance detected a $6.3 billion breach and said it would cover losses.

North Korea has denied that it was behind the $6.3 billion theft from cryptocurrency exchange Binance, calling the FBI's allegation a "grave political provocation."

In a Tuesday statement, Kim Yo-jong, the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, said: "The FBI is trying to brand the DPRK as a 'cyber criminal state,' claiming that it obtained information that a hacking organization 'supported' by the DPRK was involved in the incident."

The statement was carried by the state-run Korean Central News Agency and republished by South Korea's Yonhap News Agency.

"It is a grave political provocation against the DPRK that the US misleads the international public opinion as if all the cyber crimes in different parts of the world are our deeds," she added.

Kim also said Washington was using cybercrime allegations to damage North Korea's reputation. She said the Trump administration had announced plans to confiscate illicit cryptocurrency and use it as a strategic reserve, and suggested that who ultimately received "the so-called stolen cryptocurrency" could offer "a clue about who is behind the hacking incident."

This statement comes after a few days of disruption for Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange.

On October 29, Binance said it discovered unauthorized withdrawals worth about $6.3 billion. The company initially said the breach may have involved a compromised laptop used by a DevOps engineer, though it later said it had identified additional points of intrusion. Binance said it found no evidence that wallet private keys had been leaked.

The exchange temporarily suspended withdrawals and said about $3 billion in assets had been frozen as it worked to investigate the attack.

On October 31, the FBI said North Korea was responsible for the theft and identified the alleged operation as "TraderTraitor," a name it has previously used for North Korea-linked crypto thefts. The agency said it had observed the actors converting stolen assets primarily into ethereum and warned industry companies to block transactions connected to listed wallet addresses.

Binance began restoring withdrawals in phases on November 1 and said it saw a net outflow of about $3.64 billion in under 10 hours.
