In 2002 Donte Stallworth was picked by the [[New Orleans Saints]] in the first round of the [[NFL Draft]] (13th overall). He had a productive four years with the Saints. Not only was he a realistic threat to make big plays but he was also an effective endzone target for [[Aaron Brooks]] (New Orleans quarterback during Stallworth's tenure as a Saint). During those four years he had a total of 195 receptions for 2791 yards and 23 touchdowns. Struggles with some character and team needs issues lead to Donte being traded to the [[Philadelphia Eagles]] in 2006 for a forth round draft pick and Philly linebacker [[Mark Simoneau]]. Despite fighting injures all season long in 2006, Stallworth still was very productive for the Eagles in the 12 games that he appeared in. In the 2006 season, Donte caught 38 passes for 725 and 5 touchdowns. He also had an incredible average of 19.1 yards per reception. In the 2006 playoffs he also caught a 75 yard pass for a touchdown from Eagles quarterback [[Jeff Garcia]] in the Division Playoff matchup. The touchdown put the Eagles ahead but they ended up loseing the game. Stallworth was entering the last year of his contract with the Saints when they traded him to the Eagles in 2006 and his contract expired as soon as the 2007 March free agency period began. He received offers for contracts from the [[Miami Dolphins]], [[Tennessee Titans]] and [[New England Patriots]]. Even though the Titans offered him the most money, Donte chose to sign with the Patriots. He later said that taking to former and current Patriot players such as [[Deion Branch]], [[Ty Law]] and [[Tebucky Jones]] helped him to make his decision to join the Patriots; plus he would be signing with a team at a very really chance of winning a [[Super Bowl]]. The deal that he signed with the Patriots is reportedly worth up to 30 million and could last as long as 6 years.
