I wasn't listening my father was but he was telling me that they were talking about the Pats offseason SO FAR and think it is by far the best of any team.......AND they still are talking up the Peppers rumors

Ok take a deep breath and re-write the beginning of that sentence.

Kirwan is heavily invested in that idea (Peppers to pats).

With the growing buzz of a return to Miami by JT, it's still a possibility.

Just be sure to take "buzz" as rumour...

Rumor!! Dolphins close to signing Jason Taylor for 2 years & obtaining Tony Gonzalez - FinHeaven Forums

I'd be shocked if JT returned to the Fins. What is different now than when the Tuna snubbed him and ran him out of town last year? I think there was some serious friction between Tuna & JT, and given that Taylor will have many suitors, not sure he heads back to the Fish.

As far as Tony G, that would be a great move by Miami, I hope it doesn't happen. He's exactly the type of underneath threat that would help Noodle Arm tremendously.

Not seeing how we can afford Peppers right now cap-wise. Plus we do still have a boatload of draft picks and CB is no longer a need so I'd imagine OLB will be addressed in the draft.

I do share his views on our offseason thus far, I'm loving what the Pats have done at CB. This has GOT to be our year.

As much as I love the direction the Pats are going this offseason and some of the signings, I would argue that Kansas City has had the BEST offseason so far by adding Pioli, Todd Haley, Cassel, Vrabel, and resigned some of their guys. Denver would be a close 2nd since they got JM from us and a bunch of talented FAs as well including Dawkins, Gaffney.

I personally rank the Pats offseason SO FAR as the 3rd best since we lost some great personel and one of our defensive leaders/captain/signal caller, a very good #3 WR, some key backups, long snapper and special teams guys, and we don't know for sure about Rodney's future with the team. Also, we've yet to extend Big Vince. Some positives are improvements at TE, RB, CB (but can't get a whole lot worse than last year), 34th overall pick, another pretty good LS, too early to tell on Greg Lewis now, and we resigned some other key backups + Sanders.

Some valid points....I dont think they were factoring in the front office moves and to be honest I dont even think they were thinking of plus minus I think they were speaking more of just player acquisitions.

I think the Patriots are doing a hell of a job this offseason!! Our defense looks much better than last year and the best part is that Deltha O'neal is no longer a Patriot!
