Bills Cut Aaron Schobel

The Bills have cut Aaron Schobel, and you have to wonder if the Patriots are interested in making a run for this guy. No active player has more sacks of Patriots quarterback Tom Brady than Aaron Schobel, and the Patriots loving adding guys who have killed them in the past (Welker). Belichick of course refuses to speak on the matter...

Right now, I’m really just focused on our team,” Belichick said of Schobel. “I’m really just focused on our team. I couldn’t comment. He’s still under contract with Buffalo.

“But obviously, he’s a good player. He’s given us great competition on the field.”

Riveting stuff Belichick. Anyways, I have no way of knowing if the Patriots will indeed try to sign him, but I think they should. He is aging, but he still had 10 sacks last year, and consider Banta-Cain was our sack leader last year I think this would be a great pickup. Then again, I thought Owens would be a great pickup, and the Patriots decided that he wasn't worth signing for 1 year, so what do I know?

I have said it before and I'll say it again, I have not enjoyed what the Patriots have been doing to their team over the past year or so. They are one of the top franchises in the world in terms of money, it was an uncapped year, and they did nothing. Hope your wallets are fat Kraft, because I believe you fucked this team.

So...what would I have done?

Well Owens would be on this team. Brady would be making crazy money on a 1 year deal (same goes for Mankins), so that he feels like the Patriots actually look after him.

Brady can't be happy that they let the best QB they have ever had go to the last year on his deal before starting negotiations, when he is making less then David Garrard.

I would've brought in Kieth Bulluck (Pats lacked leadership on defense, can't think of anyone better to fit that role), and sign Aaron Schobel. Will they both work out? No idea, but it is an uncapped year and it can't hurt this defense. Also, there had to be something out there for RBs.

I rarely go after the Patriots, but I feel like they are cutting costs for no reason. I get the new CBA isn't out, but that doesn't mean that couldn't have done 1 year deals with all these guys.

Example: Brady 1 year deal, high money, with a guarantee that they will pay him at least top 3 QB money (unless injured) following the new CBA.
