Not unexpected considering his high cap number:

Good guy and a good player. Maybe they bring him back.

This should stir the pot.

PATS TO CLIP COLVIN?: According to the Boston Globe's Mike Reiss (http://www.boston.com/sports/football/patriots/reiss_pieces/2008/02/pats_expected_t.html) the Patriots could cut Rosevelt Colvin today. Colvin was slowed by a foot injury last year, but he has a history with Dick Jauron as he spent the first four years of his career under the Bills head coach in Chicago.
Whether the Bills would have a legitimate interest is hard to determine. Under Dick Jauron the Bills have typically targeted free agents no older than 28 with the exception of Jason Whittle last offseason as they look to get 3-4 quality years out of their free agent acquisitions. Colvin is 30.
The other factor is the linebackers in Perry Fewell's scheme more often than not line up off the line of scrimmage and Colvin is more of a pass rushing linebacker. Aspects of Fewell's scheme could obviously be altered or changed to fit Colvin's talents. But I'd be mildly surprised if Buffalo made a run at Colvin.

Man, I'm glad we didn't sign that guy. I remember when New England got him everyone thought he was gonna be this dominating force that was going to haunt us. I guess not.

I would actually be ok with him in our LB core. Experience alone would be worth having him in there. Our LB corp is young.. doesnt hurt to have a guy that has been around the block... especially the Patriots block. (meaning championships)

I agree Pride. I would love to see him in Buffalo hopefully healthy

Word is he isn't healthy. His foot injury from last year is lingering, and the Pats reportedly cut him after he failed a physical.
