Re: Pats may sign both springs and bodden

**Springs I don't get - dude could be Deltha O'Neil's grandfather... ;)
Bodden is probably good, but we won't pay him top corner money, even with the cap room.

But maybe we're still thinking "vet-cough-jag" corners are the way to go. But that pass rush better get it's sh!t together.

This bit of the article should have been included in the post, dude...

LOL nice post Anyways Springs as a nickel corner would be sweet plus he would give us some Vet leadership that our backfield will be lacking with harrison gone
 
Can he play safety ?
 
We do not need a 33 year old CB. I am hoping we do not sign him. I would rather have Wheatley step up, or draft an A Smith type CB.

When the Pats won the Super Bowl in 2001, they did so with a then 36-year-old Otis Smith starting at CB and 30-year old Terrell Buckley playing in the slot.

Springs had a very good year for Washington last year. Washington's secondary was a strength of that defense despite the team lacking a top pass rush. He is a good stop-gap to bring in until the young guys are ready to take over.

Darrell Green and Aeneas Williams played CB until they were close to 40. I realize it is rare, but if a guy has the talent of a Springs and keeps himself in shape you shouldn't just discount his ability.
