That big f'er Vellano the Patriots have filling his spot seems to be doing the trick ... listed as 6'2", 285lbs ... looks a little bigger then that, or maybe he just plays bigger.

yeah the NT in NE have been a good surprise for them so far. no one thought the depth was that good. well it is

Players we no longer have on our roster and ex-girlfriends... Two things that never cross my mind in regret.

There is a reason for both.

Saints coach Sean Payton regrettably recalled this week that he actually tried to get Ninkovich to switch full-time to long snapper to earn a spot on the roster.

“So it tells you how much I know,” Payton said.

Ninkovich suffered knee injuries in both the ’06 and ’07 preseasons.

Can't make the if your always in the tub. Good for Rob.

Hmm! I wouldn't trade a (de) player for him, happy he was able to stick with a team, but i am happy with what we have

The Dolphins totally blew it. His knee wasn't hurt and they let him go. Bufoons!
