Show me where the Pats have drafted any all pros in the last few years. Yeah they stockpile picks but they do not seem very good in picking with them.

You guys do realize he didn't decline at all after his suspension. He had a knee injury and hasn't been able to come back from it.

It was so obvious he was juicing, almost as obvious as James Harrison in the Steelers' super bowl year.

You don't go from being an unstoppable force that is unblockable, to mediocre and injury prone all of a sudden unless you're on PEDs.

Or gain 15-20 lbs of lean tissue in one offseason like he did before the draft that year.

Bengals may take him...they're into the head case thing...

He is better suited in a 3-4.

Exactly. Juice or no juice the knee did him in.

He started to decline right after he got back from suspension and due to continuous testing had to remain clean.

His decline also coincided with the departure of one Wade Phillips as his defensive coordinator.

Which also coincided with DeMarcus Ware turning from an excellent pass rusher to an absolute beast.

Coincidence? I think not.

I'd love to see a University of Maryland product play for us! Hate him or not, the dude was a BEAST, and I wouldn't mind seeing him with the Cowboys.

me too if he's healthy image the defense (i hope) wade can design on 3rd downs with ware, ratliff, spencer and merriman.

Drop more people into coverage and let them 4 go to work.

I believe I read on the ESPN site that he was put on IR, so I am not sure
of his availability this year.

I would take a flyer on him next year for a minimum value contract , to see if
he can be reserected under Wade, assuming of course Wade is our coach next year !

If he is healthy and can play I wouldn't mind a flier for the rest of the season. I don't think I would sign him to anything longer than that though.

Careful, CM...praise for Wade is not allowed around here until he takes Dallas to the Super Bowl!!
