Default Jets Cut Brett Favre; should the Patriots go after him?

Favre released by Jets, free to sign with any team - NFL - CBSSports.com Football

He could serve the vital role of "experinced backup vet QB" that this team has has not had since the departure of Testiverde.

I think he would be a good fit in our spread packages and wildcat.
Also, he is familiar with the 3-4.

Good post!

Yeah, we really need THE HOF veteran gunslinger in here to teach the youngsters how not to manage an offense efficiently and draw up plays in the dirt when watching film just puts you to sleep.

That is true, but he might be a bit old to transition to playing defense. What position did you have in mind?

He would fill the void left by Asante, and especially in cold situa... oh wait he THROWS the int's not catches them.

I guess Mangini left a void at D-bag that he could fill.

It sure would be a confidence boost for the rest of the AFCE, lol.

He'll wind up with one more pitiful year in Vikings Purple.

I hope he ends up facing the Packers as a Vik and Rodgers chucks 6 TD's in each game. That would be almost as awesome as watching the Pats in pre-season.

Well, Brady might not be 100% coming off an injury. Brett can compete for the starting role at camp. Either way we will have a vet back up that way.

With the departure of Hobbs, there is a glaring need at Kickoff Return Specialist...Favre did have the luxury of studying under Desmond Howard for a few years, I say bring him in as camp fodder and see who prevails.
