His college highlight video looks good...bring him in.

He has been hurt since he was in high school, so it sounds like he fits the mold.

But he didn't do angel dust or enjoy drive by shootings, so he passed the background check.

You mean other teams miss on picks too King.The Patriots have a very questionable record over the past decade as far as their drafts go. Last year I'd call the Gronk and Hernandez draft their best... Not so much now.

I would say their drafting of DB's has been particularly questionable.

Pats suck at drafting DB's.

And WR. They do a good job drafting OL and DL, though.

Dowling has talent, but he is hurt all the time. They must have run out of patience with him. He has missed all their games this year, but I'm not sure what his injury is.

As I understand it, his main drawback is his inability to stay healthy. He's good when he can play, and while he was a second round pick, it was #33 overall.

If Dowling had a Lazarus Pit, he wouldn't be getting cut.

Bill Belichick.

Everyone in Buffalo, Miami and New York should hate Art Modell just as much as Clevelanders do...

If Modell didn't move the team, Belichick would have never been the coach of the Pats.

He's not the "genius" you think he is.
