Sunday night watching the game I intently watched Gocong play. To be honest I never heard of the guy except for the members here who were wishfull that Belichick would grab him several drafts ago. He did seem to be a Bill kind of player ... athletic and moldable.

So today Colvin goes on IR and is replaced by Chad Brown ... I again think of all the members here who wanted Gocong ... hindsight is 20/20 but it sure would have been nice to plug him in for Colvin rather than Chad Brown.

What round was he taken in??? I remember he was one I liked...not sure what round and who the Pats took instead..

I feel your frustration brotha. I don't know what BB has against drafting young linebackers. Some youth and speed at linebacker would be soooo helpful. It's not like we didn't have our chances to draft one. That Beason kid would look real good in a Patriot Uni.

Early 3rd in 2006, about 15 picks before David Thomas. 5 picks ahead of the Green Bay pick the Pats traded for the early 2nd for Chad Jackson.

Gocong has made one play in 2 years. If we're going there, why didn't we take Shaun Philips, Jared Allen, James Harrison, Trent Cole, Kiwanuka, etc? Maybe Pierre Woods will step in and surprise. It's not like Colvin has lit the world on fire this season. He had a couple big games, but otherwise was quiet.

Colvin is an excellent LB. He's made plays and maybe more importantly, hasn't looked like a fvckup out there.

This sucks.

Sorry to ruin this pity fest, but AD is being plugged in for Colvin, not Chad Brown.

Chris Gocong, DE Cal Poly could be the next Tedy

NON-MOCK - Blast, The Kiss of Death for Gocong!

Who do we pick at #86?

Yeah and who is plugging for AD or are we going to alot of 4-3 with Jarvis.

Either way ... we need some LB's for our geriatric LB's next year.
