Old Lion will be bitching on the Patriots board about how he sucks on the Patriots.

Well if he does as an OLB in a 3-4 then yes. There would be no excuses left for him at that point. I think he will be OK though.

Our 7th for the Pats 6th? So basically we moved up a few spots to the end of the 6th round from the middle of the 7th round.

Sounds like a salary dump.

As far as the trade goes, we needed to make room for Bynes. Think of it too that we traded a mid 7th and a late 7th and KVN for Bostic and a late 6th. Pretty uneventful.

Also, I think once Bostic is back we will cut Armbrister.

You act like Mulbach didn't almost cost us a win this past weekend.

I haven't watched the game yet, only radio. Missed that part I guess. Don't forget Rob, I always defend special team picks.(the one time I joke about Landes, it burns me) Huge facet of the game. They're not fancy or sexy but needed. I never say you can draft certain players late or get UDFAs. BQ saw the guy he wanted as did Mayhew with Martin. Hope BQs works out as Mayhew's has.

I was so happy we got him in the draft.


One of those rare times I've loved a Lions pick. Go figure.

Me too!! Was a huge van boy fan! Oh well be will be missed. Not by me so much...and probably everyone else here, but someone will miss him....right? Right?

UPDATE:

After 3 games with the Pats, playing the position he was meant to play all along, Van Noy has 10 tackles, a sack, 9 hurries and 10 pressures. This past week he led all Pats LB's in snaps and had an INT.

LB Kyle Van Noy bringing energy, production to the Patriots defense

I'm still pissed at Mayhew, Caldwell and Austin for F*ing this whole thing up. To trade up to take a guy in the 2nd round only to not allow him play his position of production is the height of incompetence. Even if you decided not switch from a 4-3 to a 3-4, at least have the guy in on blitzing downs and let him rush the QB!

Now able to rush the passer, Kyle Van Noy making a 'very positive' impression with New England Patriots after his first game with NE.

Imagine playing for Mayhew your whole carrer, then getting traded to the Patriots. He's probably covered in bruises from asking everyone he meets in New England to pinch hm.

I am still shocked that the 3-4 linebacker is good in a 3-4 but bad in a 4-3.

Mayhew has no idea what those mean. Same reason we traded for Ngata.

I love it. Van Noy was always one of those guys that busted his ass and always seemed to make a big play at the right time. They are getting the band back together!
