Default Big Ol' Shake-up next week?

Anyone think Lynch and/or Law could appear next week on week-by-week deals w/ Law getting what he wants based on Performance (which he can likely NOT deliver)?

I don't think those two guys necessarily will turn up (Lynch seems 60/40, though), but I think with week one out of the way, any sitting vets look a whole lot more interesting to the Pat's. Of course if the "weak areas" turn in a solid performance, maybe little/nothing will change?

I think the Oneal signing proves that if there is someone they want, they wont be totally cheap and will go get him. I think cutting him was because Meriweather is healthy and thats alot of $$ for a backup slow safety. Hey, we got Ventrone,lol.

Negative on both. If Meriweather is healthy, it's a big ole sayonara to Lynch. Law wants way too much $$ and I don't think he has anything left. I think the Pats pass on him, regardless of the price. A trade for Sheppard would be more likely, but only if these CBs consistently get torched the first few games. Then the Pats might end up being that team that overpays for Sheppard.

Lynch maybe. Only because we were always playing a safety as LB, and still having a SS back. I wonder if that experiment is over, or if Lynch comes back in a week or two, and resumes that role.

As for Law? No. We can't afford to feed his family. It's a REEEEALLY big family

The only shake up , I see is CJ Jones cut, Kevin Faulk activated..


I dont know who you cut if John Lynch is resigned.. And the more time goes by, do I want him back?? who do you cut lewis sanders.. ?? Sammy Morris?? highly unlikley there..


Again Ty Law has not played for this team for 4 yrs, that will continue, the junior seau era has offically ended also in my opinion..

I think that Junior will be back with the first injury on the defensive line.

wouldnt we be better off picking up a defensive lineman to replace an injured defensive lineman?
