If this signing happens, it is more about depth and competition than anything else. Smith was just signed to a 5 year deal. He looked good against Philly. I don't think the Pats management is happy about the backup situation though. If Smith gets hurt, there are no other large running backs that could take over. Both Redmond and Faulk are 3rd down backs. Patrick Pass is on the bubble and has not been helping himself.
If they sign Anderson, I think Pass will be cut, and Anderson, at 240 lbs, will be used in a hybrid FB role, much like the Pats used to use Keith Byers....but he is also quality depth behind Smith.

Yeah....the deal as reported on ESPN said $650,000 minimum one year deal with a $25,000 signing bonus....low risk, high reward kind of deal....but apparantly talks hit a snag late last night before the deal was signed.....so its not a done deal yet.
