Ellis Hobbs and the stiffs.
Or simply, the stiffs. It looks like the Pats are gearing up to get young blood in a deep corner draft. I think that's the right way to go. Draft 2 young corners, then sign a veteran CB to hold the fort. Hopefully by midseason, at least one of the young corners has taken over a spot.

Forget about another free agent cornerback and select three cornerbacks in the 2008 NFL Draft. Let Jason Webster and Lewis Sanders battle for the "veteran cornerback position". If the Patriots are able to trade down from the number seven draft position, I'm sure the Patriots will be able to pick up another 2008 second round draft pick or 2008 third round draft pick (with an additional 2009 draft pick).

As you and I AGREE, we have critical needs at two positions: Corner and Inside Linebacker. This is NOT a long list 10 days into the off-season.

The inside linebacker position may be in its worst shape since Belichick arrived in New England.

I'd feel alot better about the inside linebacker position if the Patriots signed a free agent linebacker such as a Victor Hobson, Chaun Thompson, or possibly Clark Haggans.

didnt we win a superbowl with earthwind moreland???
everybody relax. hobbs is not a stiff, and we'll draft a couple guys who can work with the vets, and capers. l.b., no problem. by july, everyone will be chirping "this is the best l.b. group b.b. has had since he's been here"
do we have holes? sure. but some of you make it sound like we have a bunch of "stiffs" on the team. chill
