Does anyone know if the Fins made a run for this guy? I hate seeing former pro-bowlers ending up with the Pats.

Phinatical · 09-01-2008, 11:49 AM

Pat's signed him this morning

he signed with the pats.

BostonFinFan13 · 09-01-2008, 11:53 AM

He didnt fit what the FO wanted. We are getting younger and bringing in a older CB who got cut by the Bengals and their great Defensive backfield wasnt a good fit.

thanks boston

Blue Thunder · 09-01-2008, 12:48 PM

Pats thin at CB.....could possibly be a nice addition....hit or miss...

Fernando Bryant didn't impress and everyone thought he was a good signing.....Lynch will be back at a lower price.....

WVdolphan · 09-01-2008, 12:54 PM

That's just it.....FORMER pro-bowler. John Lynch is also a FORMER(perinial too) pro-bowler but, you dont see teams beating his door down to offer him a contract. Let teams who are weak in the secondary like the patsies pick up these bums. Geez.

You guys werent screaming to give Trent Green starter money although he is a former pro-bowler now were ya? There is such a thing as washed up guys. Im glad the patsies signed O'neil. Just another weak link for Pennington and Ginn to pick on.

Miami should sign Eugene Wilson.

SpaceMountain16 · 09-01-2008, 01:58 PM

O'Neal is a better fit with the Patriots who are currently a "win now" team. I just don't think it was worth the Dolphins signing him when it would be more beneficial whilst rebuilding to see what guys like Joey Thomas can give you.

XXXSURTAINXXX · 09-01-2008, 02:20 PM

I think the Pats dynasty is over. That run last year took alot of them....now we are going to take the rest out their a**

Blue Thunder · 09-01-2008, 07:17 PM

Pats aren't in the win now mode......They still have core players who are in late 20's and adding youth and speed to LB corps..and DB.....

We will see how much got taken out of the team when the season finally starts.....BB is resting them to make up for the longer season they had last year.....

Brady staying healthy is key to their season.....

Blue Thunder, would you happen to be a biased Patsies fan?

The Dolphins or the Jets aren't blue. He is named Blue Thunder. The Bills would also never praise the Pats. So he must be a Pats fan. Their dynasty is over, they may win the division this year, but next year they're 2nd place.

Signed, 2004.

Belicheck knows what he's doing. I believe Mort reported that they were looking into Ty Law. If Belicheck wants to keep guys fresh he could always take them out of games when up by 40 points, unlike last season.
