How is this even possible? I got it from multiple sources that the off-season ended immediately after Revis bolted!

 

[BobDigital]

Good player. Good start.

Great Signing, now that's what I'm talking about!!!!!!

 

[KDPPatsfan85]

YES!! MY DRAFT BINKY IS HERE!!!!!

 

[patsinthesnow]

Honestly could start over Chandler or Ninko. Great run defender/underrated pass rusher and young. Had his best season pass rushing wise from 4-3 DE.

Awesome deal!

Excellent work.

Awesome deal!

But.. but... Bill Belichick screwed Free Agency on Day 1. I can't stand it!

Now let's get Michael Johnson and Nick Fairley or Rubin.
What is CJ Spiller and Percy Harvin doing lately

 

[BelizePats]

This is a really smart signing. A typical somewhat under the radar move that will pay off really well for us.
Great move!

I actually hope they still bring Ayers back too but I am really happy about this signing....Sheard was underutilized in Cleveland and I think will flourish into a 10+ sack backer/tweener and plays well against the run

This is your 2015 version of La Fell right here folks......low key and BIG dividends

 

[r3pnit]

Yes!!! We signed a guy whose stats declined each year since he's been in the league !!! Great !!

 

[50-yard-line]

Now Fairley, Ellis, Rubin or Pot Roast...

Just say no to Fairly and Harvin.

Awesome deal!

Jones needs to step up next year.

 

[Joker]

Bowl!

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Happy to have him. Looking at the contract, could be another one year rental.

@MikeReiss: Patriots were in sub defense 73.5 percent of the time & DE/OLB Jabaal Sheard adds versatile piece in front seven. Has three-down potential.

@OliverBThomas: Jabaal Sheard played 4-3 end when he led the Browns in sacks and forced fumbles in 2011. Former second-round pick out of Pittsburgh.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Pass rush. Pass rush. Pass rush.

Excellent!
