Well, I hope he goes to the Phins. That's one less team in the running for McClain.

Pats are known for just coming out of the woodwork, getting a deal done fast, and making a big splash. When you hear big rumors over time (ie Peppers) it's probably not going to happen. BB just loves to keep a poker face on everything he does. Even poker.

Ridiculous.

Some guy who may make it.

Or, a guy who is already a beast of a defensive player and will get better.

Well hopefully he doesn't have some personal grudge type problem with the Patriots that makes him want to say no thanks to any offer they conjure up. If the Pats could get him I'd be pretty giddy going into the draft (assuming Wilfork remains), but I'm not holding out hope.

As nice as it would be to have a player of Dansby's caliber here, especially at a major area of need--I can't really pretend that I'm shocked.

Financial concerns + many of our own FA's to sign + downcreased spending in an uncapped year = no major FA's of Dansby's caliber (IMO anyway).

Since Brady has never reached a contract year, and we have some major pieces to sign here first, (Bodden, Wilfork, Faulk, etc) I'd be quite surprised to see us give 10+ million/per to anyone else right now.

There will still be plenty of cuts/more minor FA's on a lesser pay scale, some of who they will probably give a look to.

(Not that I wouldn't be just as excited as the next guy regarding top-tier FA's)

If we can't get Dansby then I would rather see him with the Giants as their MLB then with Miami.

Creator of the Pats must draft Jason Verrett in 2014 no matter the cost fanclub.

Misleading title. He didn't say anything about the Pats, just that other teams were possible destinations. Doesn't exclude the possibility that he could sign with New England, although that seems unlikely.

I wish it were more likely, because we definitely need a guy like Dansby to play the strong side ILB position. That does not appear to be Mayo's forte.
