What 10 Personnel changes in FA, Trades and the Draft could have an immediate impact on the 2010 Pats IMO:
The Pats were low on talent and Heart in 2009. No leadership because it all retired or they were moved along. The FA market is weak this year. Trades will be required to make us stronger. BB does not value or trust Draft choices as immediate impact as a rule. With TB, Faulk, Moss the Pats do not have the requisite three years to wait on Rookies. The Rookies I chose should help in 2010
This is just an idea of how I can see a change in leadership, attitude and add more talent.
Resign:
Wilfork
Bodden
Mankins
TBC
Trades:
1-Trade our first second Rounder and NT Ron Brace to Arizona for WR Anquan Bolden (28). Their starting NT Robinson is 35 and a FA and so is backup NT Gabe Watson. Pryor has worked out so far.
2-Trade our third second Rounder and T Matt Light to the Bears for ILB Brian Urlacher (31). Pace is 35 and has been hurt and talking retirement. Bears need a Left OT. I think the Bears might blink.
3-Trade RB Maroney for a third round pick
FA:
1-OLB Keith Bulluch-32 but plays with passion and makes plays. Will add immediate HEART.
2-DE/OLB Aaron Kampman-30 but an upgrade over AD (older) , Burgess (older), Woods, and Ninkovich. Another passionate player.
4-RB LenDale White-Only 26. 1,100 yards two years ago and catches well. In short yardage he has been decent. Passionate and seasoned between the tackles runner BB wants.
DRAFT:
1-Take Jerry Hughes OLB and he can rotate with Burgess and Kampman as OLB/DE Hybrid
2-Our second Second Rounder RB Jahvid Best-Lightning
3-Our third round pick (Maroney) TE Ron Gronkiwski-Can block and catch-Should fall there because of previous injury, Better receiver than Watson.
4-Our fourth round pick WR Freddie Barnes. 4.6 speed (but so was Jerry Rice). Has "football" speed, can get open and has hands. 6’ and 207 lbs (keep a seventh in case we have to use it to move up)
5-Our sixth round pick and seventh ?????. Development or another Pryor, Edleman winner.
Put Nick Kaczur in at RG and Levoir at RT
Not perfect but thoughts?
