I'm still hoping he wants to come to the Pats..
I didn't even know the Pats had him in for a tryout. Are you sure they gave him an offer?

And its not dreaming to think that a RT looking for good money and a starting job would want to come to a championship calibre team.

The Patriots could provide all 3 to him.
I know one thing - He is NOT coming to New England for a visit anytime soon

Tomorrow he is scheduled to head to Baltimore and talk about a contract and if he does not find one a Tampa Bay visit is next in line and finally the Chargers want him if the other two don't, I would be shocked if any of those don't sign a deal with this guy

You forget that NOT all players give a ***** about championships there are more than you know who say its all about the $$$$ - ask any former Patriots player why he left a potential SB team and you know the obvious - more cash offers = more $$$$$

Forget it,Ain't happening - Lets move on to the next guy who gets cut that is signing here

Agreed to a 3 yr deal worth $11mil w/the Ravens today: http://news.cincinnati.com/apps/pbcs...7-436d-a33e-62

There is a league wide quota on ex-Bengals on a team...we have 2 already. Still waiting for one nice,calm,intelligent,or posetive response from you instead of the same old stuff.

That's too much money for a dude his age, though I have to remember the iron clad rule that all Cincy personnel moves are wrong, so ...?

Either way, I'm glad he's not coming here because he's got no interest in winning. the Ravens don't have a chance in the next two years for sure and likely beyond. Maybe he's friends with derrick Mason's wife? the crab cakes are awfully good down there...I'm hope they make up for never getting a single ring of any kind. Of course, Willie can buy all the cakes he wants while I have to cry in my discount beer...

Although I initially wanted Anderson, I realized he had next to no shot of coming to New England. The Pats usually go with smaller quicker linemen rather than big beefy linemen. So Anderson probably was never an actual consideration for the Patriots.

Willie Anderson signed with the Ravens. $11M for 3 years, 3.5 guaranteed.

http://www.profootballtalk.com/2008/...r-three-years/

I don't think he has 3 years left.

Next time do a little research before mouthing off - Every news report had him serously looking at Baltimore FIRST if you bothered to realize that there are more teams than New England to make money on and championships like I said mean crap to A LOT of these guys,if you could read thier minds of what they really want out of thier NFL career you would be shocked,more than half want BIG dollars and if they win a championship great,but its not a failure as long as the money goes their way

- Its a money thing - Only in rare cases like Bruschi,Brady and Moss does winning mean more than the big bucks they could have received elsewhere
