On face value the veteran Patriots that made the Patriots what they are perceived to be have been slowly on the decline/retired/moved on and Belichick is in the middle of a massive rebuild of this team.Green had some solid years here and no one should ever forget his play in the 2003 title game against the Colts. This team could use a guy who can give them what Green used to.
The last two years he has been a total non-factor. He looks to me like a guy who just can't play anymore. He was ready to move on which is good because even if he wasn't the fact is he was still going to be moving on. While I think it is likely that they will regret bringing him in, I wish him luck in Denver.

He was a good backup at DE. Not a starter, but more than a JAG on passing downs.
Best of luck to him.
Now now let's not be brash and blame BB for that. I prefer to blame the linebackers for getting one year older at a time .that would not have been the case if BB did not let the average age of a starting LB get to 36 and then have nobody to take over once the all went away......at roughly the same time
I think you need to take a step back and really look into what he is saying just maybe BB's style of coaching just wears players out over a period of time. There just seems to be a lack of trust and comradery with this team and that goes to the ownership. If I was a young player on this team the reality is I already know no matter how good I play I will have to play my contract out before I get paid and even then I'm asked to take a team friendly contract. There is just no reward for being good at least with this team IMO.
and people gave me crap when I said he was a waste of $$ when they extended him
he was a part time player who shined brightly for very brief periods of time

What did we get in return for him?Aside from last year, Jarvis played well when with the Pats. This trade was a win for both teams.

I'll say it, Jarvis Green is now dead to me.
We got a freed up roster spot!What did we get in return for him?
