Its official: Chad Ochocinco dealt to Pats!

Re: Its official Ocho dealt to Pats! 3 Year deal

Two late picks, one in 2012, one in 2013.

Seems like a deal for me. Why would the Bengals let him go?

I'm not a big fan of this deal. While I like the work effort, he's no longer a deep threat and that's what we all agree we need. I'm hoping that I'm proven wrong.

Christmas in July! What a day today, now bring me an OLB to give me the last hole I think I am worried about.

Re: Its official Ocho dealt to Pats! 3 Year deal

Now if he can just remember two things:

How to catch a football when it counts

and

How to keep his effing mouth shut and stop with the self promotion.

I wouldn't bet the my morning coffee money on either....

I think a big difference between him in Cinci and him here, is the fact he has huge amounts of respect for BB!

Re: Its official Ocho dealt to Pats! 3 Year deal

NFL network guys: "Can he keep his mouth shut for 3 years in NE?"

It's a valid question....

Wow, Ocho and Haynesworth. What a test of the locker room and BB's system! One is a notorious malcontent and slacker, one is a media whore. If BB can get these 2 to toe the line and actually use their amazing talents, this could be quite a ride.

Aaron Hernandez is smiling


Lets make a deal!




In all honesty, hopefully Chad Drops the "OchoCinco" BS and decides to catch TDs and win superbowlS.


Oh wait....

» My Interview With Ocho Cinco At SKYY Party In Miami Barstool Sports: Boston



.” A lot of people say my style of play would be weird in that system but the thing they don’t realize is that I don’t have to be Chad Johnson. I don’t have to be Ochocino in the media, because I’m finally getting what I’ve wanted. Winning. Winning. Listen, I create this party, I create this guy that loves football that’s like a little kid out there. I know I get to camp July 26, when January gets here I’m done. So I’m trying to cram as much f##### fun as possible into the games as I can.” Listen, I’m just saying, yo, I wouldn’t have to do that sh##. I wouldn’t have to celebrate. Celebrate for what? I’ll score 30 f###### times! They wouldn’t have a f###### chance! You know? You understand what I’m saying? Belichick knows me, see, this is what I love about the New England Patriots. I’m close to that man on a personal level, they already know that behind the fun, behind the celebrations, they know how hard I work. They’re the ones…they’re the ones ESPN wanna say, ‘Oh he can’t play no more.’ Ask the players there next time you see ‘em. As Belichick next time you see him.”

I’m not a fan of the haynsworth move, and I will hate it if/when we have to guarantee his whole year salary, at least with Dillion and Moss, I can understand losing gets to you, this guy seems like a tool!

Re: Its official Ocho dealt to Pats! 3 Year deal

Love this one, but still can't ever root for Haynesworth.

Oh lord, really??? So, I guess you won't be rooting for him to sack Sanchez on 3d down? I for one never bought into the BS that the Patriots were better PEOPLE than their opponents. BB is building the best FOOTBALL TEAM. If some of the guys, or all of the guys are bad guys, I couldn't care less, as long as they can play.

Sorry, but no, we all don't agree on that.. But thanks for trying to speak for everyone...

Chad is still a threat as a pass catcher. If you believe otherwise, so be it. The Pats have a full arsenal now of weapons for Brady and should be able to over-come just about any injury to their receiving corps.

I agree. All day I have been trying to look at the upside of the deal, and then I hear about all the crap this guy has done. This dude has ISSUES. I'm not crazy about it at all. We didn't give up much, but I still don't think he's worth the risk. I sure hope that I'm wrong.

Re: Its official Ocho dealt to Pats! 3 Year deal

Belichick needs to tell this Prima Donna to CAN it with the Twitter crap.

Knowing that Ocho is a Twitterholic it would be impossible,He would rather retire.

In fact BB should ban all these players from Twitter until February.

Mr. Hollywood Comedian needs to change his ways and get down to some serious play at WR.

Chad Ochocinco - WR - Patriots

Patriots acquired Chad Ochocinco from the Bengals for late-round picks in 2012 and 2013.
Ochocinco, who was due $6 million, has agreed to a new a three-year contract. The Patriots have yet to make waves in free agency, but they've bought dirt cheap on a pair of impact veterans who will be revitalized after escaping football purgatory. Ochocinco and coach Bill Belichick have long formed a mutual admiration society, so this deal is no surprise. While Ocho is no longer a true downfield threat, he's still one of the best route runners in the league while adding much-needed size. The trade is great news for his fantasy value, and it wouldn't be a surprise if he finished 2011 as Tom Brady's most productive receiver.


LATE ROUND PICKS

Oh I almost forgot...WELCOME TO NEW ENGLAND CHAD...:rocker:
It was long overdue..

Given the alternatives (clearly declining Stroud, G. Warren, Brace), why is giving up a 5th two years down the road too much of a risk?

Re: Its official Ocho dealt to Pats! 3 Year deal

Who was our 'deep threat' in 2001, 2003, and 2004? David Patten?
