ORIGINAL: Level mbmbn, your Pats got a good one here, I think: "I don't expect people to understand the contract,'' Adalius Thomas said over the phone from Logan Airport in Boston on Saturday night in the hoarse, scratchy voice that is his trademark. "It doesn't matter what people think of the contract. I know what the contract is. It's a real contract, not a paper contract, and I'm going to earn all of it.'' http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/peter_king/03/04/thomas/?cnn=yes This was a huge signing ! He will be a great addition to the line and fits the BB prototype like a glove. He has played all different defensive positions. And we know BB loves to move em around when injuries occur. I was ecstatic and surprised when we got him. Surprised because we are usually not the first ones out of the gate during FA. More the : let the other guys take the big names and go for a bargain on the ones in lesser demand. Our D line is aging and we need some younger ones im there, and Thomas will do fine, IMO. There are some who think he is a system Lineman and won't do well out of the Atlanta system. mbmbn
