Mock have us Dangling Wilfork?? Getting Dorsey?? - Page 4 - New England Patriots Forums

Wilfork is one of the best nose guards in the NFL. Why would BB want Dorsey? Makes no sense.

Moral of the story: Don't listen to closet Rat fan writers who make up all kinds of crap that tears away at the Patriots. That idiot is a Jet jerk pinhead, probably smoking crack and drinking Ripple and wearing his Madden 2007 Thomas Jones bra.

The New England Patriots do have to address the interior of the defensive line

This is where his argument falls apart.

Why? He played 4-3 in Miami, didn't he? Didn't it take some time for him to learn the 3-4, and not to shoot the gap?

But why would you think we'd be moving to a 4-3? What have you heard? I haven't heard this OR the rumors we were dangling Wilfork as trade bait.

I don't think that we're going to a 4-3 or that we should. I responding to the silly rumor. WHy would we trade one of the best nose tackles in the league. We MIGHT if we were considering a move to 4-3.

About Wil in college, he was built to play in the 3-4. That's the difference.

Great analysis. I give it a 9 on the snore scale.

I'm glad your not my team's GM then.

Stupidest mock draft I have ever read. Why would the Pats want to trade Vince Wilfork? He makes the probowl and is regarded as one of the best NT's in the league. But the Pats should address the D-Line by trading away their youngest player for a guy who has a history of injuries? Wow, this guy is an idiot. Trading Seymour would make more sense, but I still would think this guy is an idiot.

If McFadden falls to us we take him ... no questions asked. We'll have Maroney, McFadden in the backfield with Moss outside and Welker in the slot. Throw in a TE or another WR and who on earth could stop us???
