Both Pryor and Ballard both reportedly I eligible to return this year.
THere goes supposed help for the inside pass rush.
I just hope that the Pats have a way of keeping Pryor and Glass IR Dowling from associating

Well that was a well earned rookie contract for Pryor. Very Crablesque.
Because he's spending the entire yr on PUP, he is no longer going to be a free agent next year, so technically his rookie pact will go through the 2013 season too.
Either way, you are certainly right. He has indeed been very "Crablesque" up to this point.

At least we can say that Pryor was 'only' a 6th rounder, as opposed to the massive hype and hope that Dowling brought as the 1st pick of the 2nd round.
It's obviously never a good thing to see any draft picks wasted, but I can live with the Pryor situation much more than Dowling.
I wonder if/when they'll be making a call to the Gerard Warren bat phone, unless that's a worst case scenario that will only occur with substantial injury?

I think:
Trevor Scott - to IR, because he is injured and hasn't done much when active
Tracy White - to IR, because he has been injured and they've replaced his SP/DEF contributions with younger players.

...replaced?
We don't have anyone capable of playing half as well as Mayo/Spikes/Hightower other than White. The other LB who could is on IR.

The Patriots have been overachievers the past two years. It doesn't have the talent to compensate for injuries, and it wins so much because it puts in 99% effort in the regular season and plays with terrific schemes to mask its deficiencies.
But in the playoffs a good team at 99% will not beat emotional, talented teams that play at 100%. It's what happened against the Giants in 2011 and the Ravens in 2012.

See I dont care where they are drafted. They are on the team either way. I guess its just because I never had any interest in the revisionary history exercise of analyzing the draft in hindsight.
You'd rather put him at LB and away from DE instead of using White?
I know he 'can' but moving Rob away from DE when you don't have to is bad news.
Which is why White is important. Probably one of the better coverage LB on the team too

Scott deserves more time to heal (from whatever ails him) before IR is a possibility.
I would've had no problem IRing White a long time ago when we still had Carpenter;
but because we don't, and the rest of our backup LBs are complete garbage, then Bill
has no choice but to hope that White is good to go after Thanksgiving.
My choices for *****-canning when/if Talib/Shiancoe are activated: Mal Williams & Rivera.
