If this is the "real" Adalius now, BB would cut bait with him next offseason if he had zero OLBs signed for next year.
The real question is whether or not the Patriots can actually get anything for him, rather than cutting him outright.
At this point, I'm sure they'd gladly take a 2011 7th rounder from, say, Detroit.

Yes, the signing is part of the message to the team. The reality is that it makes little difference. Ninkovich was an RFA and was always going to play for us. As with others, Ninkovich signed through 2011 which is great. I hope that Wilfork is next.

Just to keep him out of the Jets' hands, I could see them essentially giving him away to anyone who was willing to take on his contract.
Wait..... given how us Pats fans have trashed AD here all season, wouldn't we want himto go to the Jets?

Because the last thing you need is a smart, talented player (and he is talented) who has an axe to grind with your team and knows your defense inside and out playing for your division rival?
Adalius is talented, he's just also a head case who quit on the team.
Ninkovich will tell you that football is engrained in his soul. And while talking to him, you can hear the passion resonating from a place deep inside him.
“When I’m out on the field I’m all into the game, everything about me is into the game. Anything could be going on around me and I wouldn’t even notice it because I’m so focused on what I’m doing out there on the field,” he said. “I don’t feel myself getting tired. When I put my hand down and it’s ready for the snap to go, I’m not tired anymore.
“It’s a weird feeling because I know that every play I’m going to go from the snap of the ball to when the whistle has blown … I’ve always been that way.”
