Default Guess the Derrick Burgess era is over...

was hoping he would come back and see what he could do in a full offseason, but with Warren signed, that throws it out the books...

How do you figure? Warren is a 3-4 DE for the Pats.. Burgess is a pass-rushing nickle specialist?

Completely unrelated......


Burgess is a nickel/dime DE passrusher.... he 260 lbs


Warren is a 3-4 DE, way over 300 lbs. If he makes the team, he'll play 1st and 2nd down, and if he plays on 3rd down, move to DT just like Seymour did.

guess you missed the "Patriots will make decision on Burgess within a week" thread started last month. Forget who threw that one out there.

Should have been signed by now... Lewis and Warren signing, could .. And I say COULD... Signal the end of the short lived Burgess era...

Even assuming Warren makes the final roster, depth at DE/OLB is still a need. I don't think you can say it is over yet.

Oh, sorry. He's a FA, but he could still sign.

[Not as a 3-4 lineman was my point.....]
