Saw that. It's just getting interesting.

This is the kind of "hired gun" signing you've frequently seen the Patriots do in the past.

It is. They really wanted to trade up for one in the 2nd round but apparently they couldn't find a dance partner to snag the Georgia LB. I knew then that they were desperate to grab someone in the draft but pickings were slim by the 3rd round. Haynes was the fallback option and now he's hurt.  So a hired gun it is.

I don't consider 34 to be old for the position he's playing.  If anything, age is a good thing for players who dwell in the trenches.

Intense dude!

I can already tell he's going to be the leader on this young defense.

 

This might be the best signing of the offseason because we get a impact player and a much needed vet leader on defense.

Houston Burns!

Hope he makes all his money this year with 12 sacks. After that…
