TL-TwoWinsAway Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Neat. Clearly a good fit for Patricia's scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarryTheBest Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I am good with it. I feel like Christian Jones will be cut... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superduperman Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Shrug. This isn't as bad as Vaitai but I'm far from impressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenhater Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 What I don’t like about this is he was a available last year on the cheap and the Lions weren’t interested. Now we suddenly and we overpay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lions017 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 This makes sense, I guess. He's a scheme fit and will improve our weak LB group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean a veteran player who has excelled in our scheme and can teach the younger guys while also being better at the one thing they're not (coverage)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sllim Pickens Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Patriots are out to get the rest of the league. Here is their model: Draft/sign player who has tools. Use good coaching to help player improve and more importantly, get really good at 2 things that make your system work. Player performs well Contract is up and NE does not resign because they want big money, they find another 5th round pick who can do those 1 or 2 things Other team gives them big money They struggle elsewhere because they are system guys that are good at 1 or 2 things that the best coach in NFL history found ways to exploit They get cut and return to NE for cheap Repeat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He excelled on the Patriots. He has not played a single snap for the Lions. This assumption that players can just switch teams and mirror previous success doesn’t hold true. it might work, it might not. I’m of the opinion it won’t so time will tell.
