Now we’re talking! Patriots sign S Adrian Phillips

[Patsgofor4]

One of the best SS/box safeties in the game. Can play dime LB. PFF's 6th graded safety behind Justin Simmons, Harrison Smith & Jamal Adams. I'd assume that means Chung or Brooks is gone.

You only listed 4 other safeties. You forgot Richards.

 

[captain stone]

...He’s a pro bowler because of his ST performance but still has the potential to contribute defensively.

Didn't we hear the same feckin thing about Terry Brooks this time last year and he ended up sucking the worst when we needed him the most?

 

[ensoul]

Awesome! Can he play wide receiver or quarterback though?

 

[Froob]

Chargers fans seem to love him based on their reddit

Both of them?

 

[Sully]

Sneaky good move by BB!!

 

[Patriot Missile]

But can he rush the passer? Err Play quarterback?

 

[Patriot Missile]

Like the move a lot.

Why is cap'n sad?

When is the Captain not sad?

 

[Give Kraft A Hand]

Good player he's probably Ebners replacement on the roster. Perhaps more if they cut Chung.

 

[Triumph]

We still have BB and Ernie Adams.

When they leave its officially over.

Why is cap'n sad?

this capt isn't sad.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Just from watching his highlight vids the biggest thing that jumps out to me is his leadership.

 

[JarOfMayo51]

19-0 baby!

 

[jah]

My further analysis is that we replaced Ebner and Harmon (not the type of player but the position on the depth chart) in one signing.

 

[ashley]

Excellent!!!

 

[libra957]

Let the reloading begin.

 

[Brick27]

Nice move! He’s very much not just a special teamer as some have suggested.

 

[Mack Herron]

Reiss called it. May his streak continue.
