Three Browns making Patriot news today. Another record.

We didn't care about the draft? Look at the last two drafts. Not very good at all. We better keep parlaying draft picks into the Randy Moss's and Wes Welker's of the world, because obviously Pioli is in a MAJOR SLUMP with his draft selections.

AD to outside to replace Colvin, maybe, and Brown/Seau/Bruschi inside?

BB isn't a big fan of waiting for guys to get healthy during the season. The fact he stuck it out with Ted Washington for 7 weeks in 2003 when he broke his leg is amazing when you look back on it.

I knew we were ****ed when Andrea Kramer was boasting about how healthy we were during the pre-game.

My reactions to this thread.

What? REALLY? YES.
What? REALLY? NO.

Oh.

A big loss and a great feeling gain.

So, will Troy be seeing action Monday?

Now Alexander and Chad Brown are the main backups at LB? And Pierre Woods, I guess. I suspect we'll see more and more 4-3 looks with Colvin gone.

Good to see Troy back, though.

Oh good god. We waived Kareem Brown, not because he sucked, but because we needed a place for the other Brown.

I love Troy but one of the positions he *can't* play is LB.

NEPat · 11-27-2007, 04:46 PM

That's terrible news on Colvin. Damnit...

Brown is an OLD. They tried the inside experiment with him acouple of seasons back and it failed miserably. This is terrible news about Colvin however, (with all due respect) how much worse would Brown be on the outside? I mean Colvin hasn't really shown up that much this year and OLB is Brown's natural position.

Chad Brown, ugh.
