Just what we needed. :w00t: Burgess

The guy had 2 good years on a very bad team, hopefully he will not return to his previous best while playing for the Pats. He is injury prone only playing a full season twice...does anyone know what the Pats gave up for him?

Undisclosed draft choices? The Raiders were only looking for a third and fourth according to Yahoo! Sports. Seems like a small price to pay.

 

 

Report also notes Eagles offered a third. So, the Pats gave up more than a third, most likely.

I read a 3rd in 2010 and a 5th in 2011 (as per Michael Lombardi) on a Pats* board. If he can return to his form of 2-3 years ago, this is unfortunately good news for them and bad for us......

The worst owner in football, bar none: Al Davis. Nobody fails to recognize the value in their own guys like old Al.

 

Burgess, great. It's so Belichick to pick up a guy who is known for low hits on QBs. Even when he has a clear path, he chooses to go low, putting the force of his blows in the knee area.

 

Burgess, a very good and very dirty pass rusher. He'll fit nicely in the lineup next to Wilfork.

 

May karmic injuries befall them all

They won't. They'll knock TE out in week one, and roll on to the SB whilst the Bills languish in non-playoff hell. You just KNOW that's how it'll work out.

Hey if it means Richard Seymour or Ty Warren are on the bench and off the field, great. I know Warren is still recuperating and Bellicheat was looking for insurance but I think Seymour and Warren play and Burgess gets far fewer snaps unless there are injuries.

Belichick may well use him at OLB. Also, Seymour is out often and so is Ty.

It won't be an either/or situation - he'll play OLB. We'll be facing Seymour | Wilfork | Warren | Burgess | Mayo | Thomas

 

That's 6 pro bowl guys coming at Trent.

 

I hope our line is ready.

 

Oy.

Thomas and Burgess are nothing more than "pretty good" players at this point in their careers.

It's not possible that the Bills got Derrick Jones and Derrick Burgess mixed up, is it? Seems to be an awful lot of Derricks and Dereks and Dockerys.

Trent is a dead man walking. I love the guy but he is Mr Glass.

I see a top ten pick in our future! I can't wait to get another defensive back. As old Dicky like to Say " you can never have enough defensive backs"
