You mean the ones they just replaced thanks to moving back in the 1st round and again in the 2nd round?

Sure looked like they missed them...for all of three hours!

I know BB wheeled and dealed them back but that could have been another 3rd pushed to a 2nd in 2011!! 2 1st and 3 2nds!!

Maybe...or maybe they make other trades that don't net them a 2nd next year instead net them lower picks...either way his cost was nullified.

Sorry he didn't work out, but not so sorry to see him go.

I'd like to see Burgess re-sign.

If he plays like he did the last 6 games- yes.

If he plays like the first 10- no way in hell.

So would I. He's a reasonably talented guy who has experience in the system. The fact that his play improved late in the season gives me hope that he hadn't had a full grasp of the system until our last 6 games or so.

Let's assume there's a learning curve, or so I've always heard about NE's defense.

Nothing to lose.
I actually thought his best role would have been an INSIDE rusher in the nickel/dime. I'm pretty sure he did that in Philly, sliding into DT on passing downs.
