Corey Dillon. I know his last two years here weren't great but his game in '04 was instumental in the Pats last SB victory.

Like Welker and Moss, Dillon was acquired via trade.

Best trades during the BB era, Moss would be first, Welker second and Dillon third.

Not taking anything away from 50, and I almost voted for him.

Big, big "ditto" on that PJ.

Losing Harrison late in the 2003 Super Bowl almost cost the Pats the Super Bowl. No doubt that he was crucial in shutting down Freddie Mitchell in 2004. When Law left, he was the only veteran to keep that rag tag group together, so I give him credit there.

Despite Harrison being more of a visible and audible leader on that defense, Vrabel's health, consistancy and reliability have to make him the best free agent signing in the BB era.
 
in terms of who i like, roney harrison, in terms of what they have done, mike vrabel he has the rings and has made play after play after play, now i hope bb can get a player like him in this offseason
