Coming from the same guy who wanted an old, washed up, prima donna, locker room dividing Terrell Owens in addition to Moss this past off-season. Amazing how past experiences with the player and the team he's played for can warp the perception of a guy.
Pats biggest need on D: pass rush. This guy was the best in the league when he was healhy. What's the downside to bringing him in? He had a great 2007 after being off the roids until he got cheap shotted by Tennessee around week 14 and hurt his knee. Still had double digit sacks. ACL injuries are two year injuries. It was pretty clear there was a disconnect in SD between merriman and the team. AJ smith didnt want him there and Merriman didn't want to play without contact security so he milked some injuries this year. Amazing how some want a 36 year old known locker room killer who drops a ton of balls but dont want a 26 year old pass rusher for basically nothing. Stop making it personal just because he has criticized the pats or said he hated the pats in the past. It's strictly business. There is no reason to not take a shot on him. He could make this team a SB contender and save us a pick on OLB in April if he works out. I'd rather get Merriman than bring back moss.
