I think Tom Brady says he doesn't care or it doesn't affect him.The Pats drafted C-Jax... I'm sure Bellicheck is hoping for a Michael Clayton type year from him

I heard today that the teams pursuing him have come down to two: eagles and the vikings. Man I really hope the vikes get him. We most def. have enough cap room, we have the need for a #1 wide reciever, Childress loves proven players (super bowl MVP). Everything fits. GET HIM.
If the Eagles were smart, they'd do anything possible to get him. They simply can't expect to win in their division with their current receivers.
Really interesting.I mean sure, the New England Patriots have won by spreading the ball out. But when your WR depth chart reads: Reche Caldwell, Troy Brown, Chad Jackson, Brandon Childress, Mike McGrew, and Eric Davis... Oh boy. Total combined catches last year? 70. Branch had 78 by himself. Ouch.Leads to a better question. Does this leave the door wide open for the Dolphins to take the AFC East division?

Pay the man for goodness sakes! If it really has come down to Philadelphia or Minnesota, I wonder: What is New England going to get in return?
