Not a surprise at all..Thanks for the confirmation...

 

[PATSNUTme]

Good luck David.

 

[BelichickFan]

Good luck David.

I've never been a good loser and I'm not starting now. No good luck wishes from me - except when they play the Colts, I guess.

This season Rodney and co. will give DG a not-so friendly reminder of what Patriot football is all about in Nashville. I plan on going to this one- now there's some intrigue to the game!

At least we'll get a third rounder next year (hopefully) or a 4th, at worst, for DG.

That's only if we don't sign matching UFA ourselves.

YEA WE WILL GET ANOTHER ANDRE DAVIS

 

[Pats726]

I wish him good luck...even though I feel his agent created a bit more af a high profile with some phony stories and such...but a class guy..will miss him.

It's too bad....but before we start declaring the 2006 season a total loss, lets see what BB has up his sleeve! I'm with him until he starts signing guys off of The Ground Round's flag football team!

 

[shmessy]

Best of luck, David. You've always been a real class act. 7th rounder who worked exceptionally hard to create a career in the NFL.

Nothing but respect and thanks for your dignity and work ethic. A true Patriot.

 

[JoeSixPat]

He clearly wants to be a big fish in a small pond -

I'll be interested to hear what he signed for to and assess whether I'd have wanted the Pats to match it.

 

[Feep_FLA]

A fond farewell and best wishes to a class act from me. Thanks for the effort and memories David Givens! I never hold a grudge when players leave for a big payday. What's the use? Besides, each player is the "master of his ship". Now I am really curious as to how the rest of the free agency period and the draft will unfold...... :rocker:
