maybe he's trying out the whole "22 guys off the street" thing??

Micjones · 10-07-2009, 12:26 PM

Well as long as he had time in the New England camp...

'Hamas' Jenkins · 10-07-2009, 12:28 PM

...

A ****ing wrestler?

Shocked that he worked out for the Pats before, as well.

**OnTheWarpath15** · 10-07-2009, 12:34 PM

An honest effort?

Teicher should have the ****ing swine flu forced on him or making such an ignorant comment.

They overlooked the deepest OL draft in years, but they weren't good enough - so we're looking at a wrester that has never played football before?

Shocking that he was in the Pats camp, next up is a Haitian refugee WR who spent a few days in Dolphins camp.

****.

Me.

Running.

No... Next it'll be a 6'4 320 plumber who LIVES in New England.

I still don't get why you all bitch whenever they look at someone who once had a cup of coffee in New England.

1.) They're players Pioli has a little familiarity with. Which is much better than looking at players he has no f**king clue about.

2.) They're players who've been on one of the NFL's best-run and most-successful teams. Which is much better than signing ex-Lions or ex-Rams, no?

And, yes, Neal was a wrestler and has turned out pretty damn good. But don't let something like that get in the way of the constant Pioli/Haley bitchfest.

Sign a player, they get ripped. Cut a player, they get ripped. DON'T sign a player (like Braylon Edwards), they get ripped. Trade a player, they get ripped. Look at a wrestler, they get ripped. Look at an ex-Patriot, they get ripped.

It's four games into their tenure, and already I can see the tar and feathers being gathered. Jesus H on a raft. Can they at least have one full season?

Yeah, it's really intelligent to excise 90% of the NFL because they aren't one of three teams.

the dude is 23 years old, 6'6 300 pounds with the frame to add a lot of muscle and has been one of the better college heavyweight wrestlers in the past few years. It's just a look...He's never going to sign anywhere but it's not nearly the joke that some are taking it as.

With his size & wrestling background, he should probably be trying out on tonights Ultimate Fighter instead.

Its a Vince Papale longshot look.

I think 265 would be a problem for him. I've only seen him wrestle a couple of times but honestly he's not athletic enough for the NFL. If he was...he would have won at least 2 NCAA titles. He's not Stephen Neal...but I could see why teams would take a look

I don't see the big deal either. It is not like he would be on the active roster he would be on the practice squad if that. I doubt they sign him though.

I am not pleased with much of the way things have went.

That said, the most important thing right now is to establish a way of doing things, a chemistry, an atmosphere....

It isn't about this year. One of the best ways to establish the atmosphere that they are looking for is to bring players in that have been in similar environments.

Once the system is in place, the environment secure, the team leaders installed, then they can start branching out and consider some of the players that they don't have the luxury of considering right now.

This...

And it goes for all of our players as well.
