Patriots Trade Laurence Maroney to Dungver
 

Compensation unknown. Very surprising. Per Adam Schefter.

Now we have the best backfield in the NFL to add to the best OL, WRs and LBers!!!

What? I thought Dungver had 3 All Pro RB'?

Maroney was inactive for us week 1, for a "thigh injury". He was clearly in the doghouse, however, as he was playing with the scrubs during the preseason.

He's in the last year of his contract, and was clearly the worst 1st round pick fo the Belichick era.

What's surprising to me is that this leaves us undermanned at RB with a bunch of Geritol popping, likely-to-be-injured, decrepit old timers at the position. I remember reading LAST YEAR taht the Patriots had 3 out of 4 of the RBs in the NFL over 32 years old -- Fred Taylor, Sammy Morris and Kevin Faulk.

Repost!

Got ya!!!ROFLROFLROFL

I see everyone is having delays/issues in posting. :D

After White,Maroney is the best short yardage RB in the NFL/Knowshit

Desperation move.

The Broncos need to learn that quality > quantity. Of course, they're ****ed for a year or two until they can cut Moreno.

Beaten on the Knowmo clowning. Drats.

I didnt expect Maroney to bust this hard.

awesome!

I still remember Shanarat praising Maroney and the Patriots pick of Maroney immediately after we drafted him. :shake:

It's really too bad. The guy has classic size/speed for the position and by all rights SHOULD HAVE been very good. Instead, we got to see both DeAngelo Williams and Joseph Addai, taken later in the round, massively outperform Maroney, and Addai play for one of our biggest rivals no less. :shake: Oh, and Nick Mangold be drafted later in the round and become a pro bowl level lineman for our division rival Jets. :shake: :banghead:

Oh well, not all picks pan out, but that one just hurts somehow. He SHOULD have been good, but I guess he just didn't want to spend the effort. Or soemthing...

Thank Gawd!
