Yea, they wanted one of NE's LB's but the Patriots weren't willing to give up anybody Nawlens wanted, plus the 3rd/4th round pick. I can't remember for sure but I think they wanted Banta-Cain (don't quote me).
Oh, and Jabar's had a role it's just been reduced with the additions of Moss, Welker and especially Stallworth. The reason I say especially Stallworth is that during the first two games of the season Gaffney got a lot more snaps but as Stall's found his way closer to %100 (he's had a knee injury) he's taken a lot of snaps away from Jabar. Gaffney's still been getting at least one or two good chances at receptions per game though. The upgrades the Patriots made over their 2006 WR corp is really amazing to me.
