Patriots sign former Dolphins CB Will Allen

[Ring 6]

But Edelman was an upgrade over anyone at Safety not named Chung (and sometimes not even then).

I see the crack pipe has stayed within arms reach.

Julian Edelman can now focus on the offensive side of the ball, since I'm not sold on Anthony Gonzalez.

 

[ATippett56]

But who provides injury insurance to Will Allen?

Sterling Moore and Marquice Cole.

I actually like this signing provided the contract is for one year at the vet minimum.

Veteran minimum please!

I think we bring in Yeremiah Bell now, at least for a visit...

If Bill wants somebody of Bell's skillset, then he might as well re-sign Diggy, who already knows the defense
& is younger. I also wouldn't mind Jimmy Sanders re-signed but only for the vet minimum.
The best available Strong Safety (Bell's position) is prob. Sean Jones, who played for Romeo in Cleveland
from 2005-08.

Nah, just the bong.

So who besides Chung played a decent Safety last season? Diggy?

I'd rather draft Mark Barron or Harrison Smith.

Neither am I.

And I still believe that Edelman has the athletic ability, toughness & football instincts/intelligence
to perform well at either WR or FS.

Not McYouknowwho.:snob:

 

[captain stone]

I'd rather keep McCourty at CB, for now at least.

Forget it! Time to upgrade via the 2012 NFL Draft.

Considering edelman played about 4 snaps at safety all year, take your pick.

Tannenbaum and Rex have sole possession of said pipe Andy.

I'm not sure what it is like where you are from, but in the US there are plenty of crack pipes to go around.

Are you implying his moniker should be changed to Captain "Stoned"?

 

[FredFromDartmouth]

O... add those 7 guys and then take the next 2 months off at the Vinyard.

That would be Nantucket. There is a BIG difference; the Vineyard is where the cheap property is.

Sterling Moore looked like the best safety on the roster...then he was cut :bricks:

He looked good at corner but I think with his skill set he would be better suited to safety.

Nickel - dime ... with all these players coming in is Bill now working on establishing the 'Big Quarter' :confused2:

Two "dimes" and a "nickel" equal a "quarter"!

Not sure that crack gets you "stoned."

Cheap compared to Nantucket maybe, certainly not compared to say... Dartmouth.
