The higher they go the further they fall...

The team could always use some depth in the secondary.

Is he better than Arrington?

 

[patsfan-1982]

he was good when he was in Oakland but warren sapp who played with him always said he was never the best CB and now that he's old by NFL standards he's pretty much done

Matt Flynn got axed by the Bills, too.

Sign the beast (but not off of waivers).

We should put a claim in, we're under the 53 anyway.

 

[JackBauer]

No, thanks. Goose is cooked.

 

[patsinthesnow]

IMO He still has use a part-time man to man outside CB (which we need). He's awful in zone, as his time in Philly/San Fran proved. Give him a call.

 

[PATRlOT]

I think our chances of claiming him are low anyways because of other teams with higher priority aka worse record than us.

I would still love to have him. I wanted us to sign him this offseason

If we add him and Incognito we could really address some issues this team has.

I was a huge Asomugha fan but I eventually saw through the hype. He lived off one or two really good seasons and nobody throwing his way for 3-4 years because of those two really good years. Once he changed divisions and NFC East QBs challenged him it was obvious he was all hype.

 

[Huckleberry1]

No thanks, he's toast.

Damn it! Beat me to it.

 

[BradyFTW!]

Pending Talib's health, he might be worth a look and potentially a vet minimum contract for the rest of the year. Anything that keeps the Pats from playing Kyle Arrington in roles that expose his weaknesses is a step in the right direction.

 

[condon84]

Didn't he come out of college as a safety? Wonder if he can still play that.

 

[manxman2601]

Picking up a former first rounder currently on the scrap heap is so BB.

 

[PATRlOT]

We should have #1 priority for waiver-claims based off how badly we're injured on D

 

[chasa]

he cant be any worse then some of our depth players. lets see if he can still do bump and run man coverage.
