Jenkins hasn't played that badly. He had a below par game vs Tampa but graded well against Zona and Carolina.

Jenkins is OK. He's not a stud but he's not a bad guy to have in the rotation either.

Yes he has man.

A DT turned DE turned DT turned DE again... ?

I'm sure all this has nothing to do with coaches

$hit man, Jenkins did just as well in coverage vs Carolina as Browner did.

He's our newest CB!

Really liking this move. This stuff use to go down in the off season. Hey, it does not work that way on this team. Run your mouth, play under your potential get out. I want to win but would rather lose every game than have players like that around. I assume there was a lot more going on here. Not anymore. See ya.

New England really knows how to get the best out of cast aways. He will probably go on to have a pro bowl year.

I don't mind trading Hicks, but I would much rather it had been for a pick(s). Hoogieboogie has been in the same boat in New England. They've tried giving him a bigger role and with the exception of a splash play or two he's been very underwhelming.

Hicks although inconsistent - Had shown above average ability.

Our new TE has accomplished what?

If he turns into the next Ninkovich? This will be interesting. SP and his TE fetish!

Hoomanawanui has never caught more than 13 passes in a season in his 5 year career.
