Default Pires: Chad Brown to Pats -- Herald/Agent: Report Untrue

According to the fallowing Blog the NE Patriots have signed LB Chad Brown to a new contract.

http://acx.prospero.com/n/blogs/blog...tag=nbpatriots

The first time I clicked on the above link it gave me a page error, so here's what they have written:
2:58 PM
Pats, LB Chad Brown Agree To Terms
Holy Randy Moss, Old School is back in style. The Patriots and linebacker Chad Brown have agreed to terms, according to a league source.

The signing comes in the wake of a report by the San Diego Tribune's Jim Trotter that they have also come to terms with another vintage linebacker, Taiana 'Junior' Seau, in an attempt to shore up the linebacker corps.

For Brown, who'll turn 37 in July, it'll be his 16th NFL campaign. Brown was signed by the Patriots in 2005 as a free agent and was credited with 54 tackles in 15 games (5 starts). Brown was originally drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1993 and played there until 1996 - he made an encore performance last year for the Black and Gold of the Iron City.

Brown's a three-time Pro Bowler ('96, '98 and '98) and will provide added cover at either the outside or inside linebacker spots. Brown's most recent endeavor was working full-time at his reptile business based in Littleton, Colorado. He's the owner of www.proexotics.com.

Brown's represented by Peter Schaefer and Lamont Smith.

For more on his stats, click here: http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/3165

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I wonder if they mixed up Chad Brown with Chris Brown, since they've been interested in him? We'll see if this report is true.

What the hell, if he stinks they cut him in August. No big risk. It does add fuel to those that believe that BB likes the veterans more then signing rookies for the LB spot.

I am not excited about this at all. He didn't work out well the first time and hasn't really been a factor anywhere for a number of years. I'm sure there has to be better quality depth than this.

Hopefully they signed him to be the new water boy.

Seriously, if this is true, then maybe he's going to play OLB again. I can't see C. Brown making this roster as an ILB after his struggles there.

I certainly didn't miss Brown but as we've had him before Belichick must have a pretty good feel for what he can/cannot get out of him - if he wants him back he probably has a role he can compete for.

The fact that the link is bad tells me that this is like when someone reported that the Patriots had signed Stallworth when they hadn't.

It worked for me when I tried it the second time. The blog's authors are Dan Pires and Dave Brown FWIW.
