Default Remaining notable FA Linebackers - Who do you want?

These are the players at LB that are left on the Free Agent market and may pose some interest by the Patriots

Who,if any of these do you want on this year's roster?

NO OBVIOUS JULIUS PEPPERS RESPONSES PLEASE- We all want him but we know we likely cant afford him,so pass on Julius in this thread.

Ok, now the poll is up

Chose Brooks, wouldn't mind giving him at least a look. Depends on whether or not he has something left, which I think he might. We'll be ok no matter what though.

Of that list, only Colvin and McGinest fit the Pats' scheme. I chose Colvin since I think he has more left in the tank than McGinest.

It's so hard to tell because it's difficult to see how some players would translate to the Pats' system (like Pisa, who has had some success in others, but may be too small for us). For that reason, I chose Colvin. If nothing else, we know he's had success with us, and maybe with a full training camp he can regain some of his form.

I chose Willie, but it was him or Colvin, mainly scheme-wise. Probably be affordable and can make max use of their smarts.

Brooks is hardnosed but a bit small and so is Pinoisamoa,but I choose Pisa since he is younger and has potential to be a tackling machine for the next 5 years or so.

McGinest is a player I absolutely love and admire but he is a bit up in age as well as having back problems.

Colvins best days are past him IMO

I don't know much about Boiman

So I went with my new FA Binky Pisa
