I was using 9/10/2007.
How many players we have over 30 is 100% irrelevant as long as the process is in place to move them out and talented young players move in. So Brown, Vinny, Seau, et al, are on the team - unless they're the core of the team, which they aren't, I don't care.
It's a tough one...camp should be interesting...maybe they can find future seus, Browns??? Ones that will be there in a few years...I also agree they need to look at the future at LB...
Well whatever. I know you're a better fan than me (longer, more effort, etc) but you continually use numbers to make the Patriots look bad or don't bother presenting the pro Patriots' side. Whatever, your choice. I don't get it and I don't question your being a Patriots' fan for a second - but I don't get the slant you often provide. I think you're overcompensating to not be a homer. Regardless, a simple number of players over 30 is worthless and misleading without additional analysis.I don't care that you don't care.

LB is the only position on the team where I have an age concern of any kind.
That's all I was trying to say - other than LB we could probably release every over 32 player this coming offseason and with an average FA class + all the draft picks we have not blink an eye.We have a lot of old depth and that really doesn't matter . if Gay and wilson shake injuries, we're talented and young in the secondary.
LB starters are older than average, though, not including the AARP backups.

LOL, well he is. I just watch the games and post here - he goes to WAY more effort with his cap page, season tickets, going to some away games. He puts more time and effort in, he just does. I just don't get some of the postsWhy tell him he's a better fan than you?
My questions concerning our LBs remain: Who will replace our present, should injuries occur? Who is our future? If our LBs are the brains/heart of the defense, then why haven't any been drafted on the first day (to begin immersion in The Patriot Way) since 1999?
Adding Adalius Thomas is terrific; adding Chad Brown is not-so-terrific. We need to add yutes, through the draft, on the first day, esp. at ILB.
Chad Brown... again?
Well he's a veteran alright.
But he hasn't been exactly inspiring.
At least we don't have to count on him to start.
Strictly backup LB methinks.
You must have watched different games than everyone else. Mays was the equivalent of Dexter Reid back there. It seemed like every game there'd be a penalty on special teams it it was Mays number being called. I was NOT impressed with him. In fact, Pierre Woods was significantly better than Mays. Mays had all of 6 special teams tackles and 2 assisted tackles in the 8 games he played in. Woods, who played in 9 games, had 15 special teams tackles.

Miguel...no one should question that..at least I think so...and actually MANY if not all do not.Why not tell sebman1212 the reason I have posted that I have gone to some away games?? I was answering those who questioned my Patriots fandom.
