What is your all-time Patriots team using only non-Patriots players?

[Clonamery]

You guys don't get it ...

QB: Ernie Adams
RB: Ernie Adams
FB: Ernie Adams
WR: Ernie Adams
Slot: Ernie Adams
TE: Ernie Adams
OL: Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams

DL: Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams
LB: Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams
CB: Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams
S: Ernie Adams, Ernie Adams

K: Ernie Adams
P: Ernie Adams
LS: Ernie Adams

What this squad lack in athletics is more than made up for by the insane level of scouting and preparation.

How would that matter if all your players' bones are broken after the first play?

RB: Duane Thomas, Rocky Bleier, Tommy Mason, Joseph Addai, Donald Brown
FB/TE: Bear Pascoe
TE: Marcus Pollard, Alex Smith, Lee Smith, Jake Ballard
OL: LT Bob Vogel, T/G Dan LaRose, C/G Ted Larsen, G/T Robert Gallery, RT Corey Hilliard, g Ken Byers

All of the above players were either once part of the Patriots' organization, at one time traded to the Patriots, or drafted by the Pats - but never appeared in any games (other than preseason) with the Patriots.

And yes, I know there are too many WR and QB, and not enough OL.

A "little older"? Scarlett's only 32 -- just right.

Yes, but Kate Upton's like 24.

Wow, putting that together must have been a chore. Good work!

A lot of those signings were held with high enthusiasm, at least by some if not most:
- Why was Matt Flynn ever on the roster?
- Torry Holt or Reggie Wayne could've been so interesting if they were a decade younger, but that was the point
- Too many Colts
- Everyone was excited for Jake Ballard, who had already injured himself out of his last game in the league.
- All the Safeties listed were smiled upon, with the most rewarding probably being Lynch's fond memories of being coached by BB in one or two preseason games before retiring. Adrian Wilson, IIRC, was supposed to be a real contributor.
