From the sounds of this looks like we will continue not to spend any money to bring in some free agent talent...oh well what's new

Herm is not happy? oh no! We cant have Herm not happy! It must take an aweful lot to make Herm unhappy since I havent heard him say that this season was a disappointment. All I hear him talk about is progress! I think Herm needs to get his priorities straight about whats making him happy and unhappy! To bad college coaches werent available in the college draft!
You are, of course, right about Bruschi and McGinnest. I was thinking of their other two LBs, Vrabel and Phifer.
FAs at starting positions for the Pats in 2001:
Joe Andruzzi: RG
Mike Compton: LG
Jermaine Wiggins: TE
David Patten: 2WR
Antowain Smith: RB
Marc Edwards: FB
Bobbi Hamilton: LDE
Anthony Pleasant: RDE
Mike Vrabel: LOLB
Roman Phifer: ROLB
Otis Smith: 2CB
Or 11 out of 22.
I wasn't criticizing our lack of FA movements last year - entirely. I though we should have gone after Kawika Mitchell, Alan Faneca, kept Casey Weigmann, Bernard Berrian (I didn't know Bradley would eventually join the team, obviously), and Jake Scott. Not all of those are young, but they would have been very decent players for us for the next five years.
I've mostly criticized our draft from last year and have exhorted the Chiefs to jump into FA this year.
I think the absolute dearth of FA talent at the DT and DE positions is probably the best proof that the JA trade was idiotic, but we could argue that until the end of time.
Are you man enough? Eric Berry? Apparently Not!
