PFW's list of 2010 free agents - Page 4 - New England Patriots Forums

this guy is proven to be a bonafide STUD pass rusher @ OLB in the 3-4 (as well as a force with his hand down in the 43).

25 years old... comes off as a smart, good character guy... why shouldn't he be #1 on the Pats off-season wish list?

If there is no new CBA I think he will be restricted. I imagine that the Broncos will do what they can to keep him, but damn he would be a nice addition.

2 Reasons:
1. He's too small. BB likes them big. I personally love Elvis (not the stupid rockstar

).
2. He'll be way to expensive. I don't see the Pats breaking the bank on him. If the CBA reach an agreement and it's capped next year, I think there is no chance we get him.

I'd love to be wrong and land him. He is just what the defense needs.

if there is a cap next year the pats dont have the money to sign him and if there is no cap there would be two tags and he is denvers only big FA he is not going any where

If there is a cap... how couldn't the Pats clear enough space to get this guy on board?

Agreed. We let go of Seymour this season for a reason and we still haven't signed Wilfork yet. If we don't re-sign Big Vince, I don't see any reason why we couldn't land this guy (though we would have bigger problems on defense in the form of losing a dominant two gap NT).

I don't see why they couldn't sign Vince AND Dumervil. Other teams seem to do fine signing more than 2,3 players to big deals... The Pats front office is surely smart enough to make it work after they clear out all the dead wood.

We'd lose out on Mankins and Brady is also coming up on an extension.

A kicker is a kicker... i wouldnt lose sleep over losing Gostkowski..

Wilfork is a priority... So is Mankins... I would let Neal walk if it meant a premiere pass rusher coming aboard.
