Free-agent fit: Defensive end/OLB – New England Patriots Blog – ESPN Boston
Some good fits here, I think if there’s any spot the Pats could make a “splash” it would be at defensive end. A veteran who can be part of a rotation with Nink and Chandler would be perfect, while also playing significant sub package snaps.
Of all the fake uni mockups I’ve seen over the years, this is one of the better ones. I think you need to keep the red facemask though. The blue uni one is the only one I really like though, the other two seem disjointed to me. I’d just go full grey and full red and see how that looks.
I don’t need the flesh tone on the Flying Elvis either…

This is probably as close as he’s ever come…
Let the offseason fun for the Patriots begin
We’ve added another outlet at Sportsblog.com where we’ll be sharing daily Pats blogs about the news of the day (or past couple days). Today’s post touches on the Revis and Amendola rumors.
Absolutely. I can’t speak as much to Manning’s offseason regime but Brady’s focus on what he eats and his training in the offseason is second-to-none. It’s night and day compared to the old days, when guys barely worked out in the offseason, much less maintaining a vigorous training and fitness regime.
I always have wanted to ask Brady about how he balances his home life and training in the offseason. Obviously, he does plenty of traveling and I can only imagine how hard it can be to maintain his training as a Dad with three kids, houses all over the place, etc.
It was nice to see him win a Patriots offseason award last year. It had been multiple seasons since he last won one and it shows how seriously he took the re-build at wide receiver.
I really don’t think there’s any legitimate chance Revis comes to New England but I would definitely prefer him to Talib. No offense to Aqib, but Revis could very well be the best cornerback in the NFL this season being a full two years removed from his ACL injury.
Talib’s a little more volatile and has had continued issues with his hips in each of his two seasons with the Pats. And obviously he’s started but not finished the last two AFC Championships.
I really loved watching Revis with the Jets when I got to see him up close twice a year. He makes it look so easily and can play any technique needed. He’s strong, smart and a shutdown corner in every sense.
Talib is really good but Revis is great. That said, I think the Pats will bring back Talib and should continue to take strides with their defense. But the thought of Revis playing for BB is certainly intriguing.
Dobson has maintained regular contact with Brady this offseason as a way to increase their chemistry, even just while discussing the game over the phone. And Dobson said he’ll absolutely join Brady this offseason in Los Angeles, where the quarterback likes to run strenuous practices with his pass catchers. So, even though Dobson has been limited physically through the early portion of the offseason calendar, he’s got a full rundown of plans to ensure more consistency in 2014.

Interesting on Dobson’s foot, looks like it was a little worse than anyone realized. Or at least it lingered far longer than expected. The good news is his plan to join Brady in LA this offseason for workouts. That is priceless.
