Patriots pick up MARCUS STROUD[views:5064][posts:18]________________________________ [Mar 1,2011 12:32pm - xmikex ""] I know he's older but he can still ball. Rock solid early free agent pickup. Dude was impossible to run against in Madden 08. [img] |

| _______________________________ [Mar 1,2011 12:41pm - timma ""] I like it. He's older, yes...but the guy is a brick shithouse. |

| ________________________________ [Mar 1,2011 1:34pm - RustyPS ""] Is he gonna play 5-technique? |
| __________________________________________ [Mar 1,2011 1:38pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] do a houseboat about it |

His run defense wasn't great, but he also didn't have Vince Wilfork next to him. He's probably more useful as a DT in a 4 downed lineman/nickel situation which is where he flourished in Jacksonville. I'm interested to see the details of his contract. |

| __________________________________ [Mar 1,2011 3:26pm - mattkings ""] Tommy likey Tommy want wingy |
| _________________________________________ [Mar 1,2011 4:24pm - MillenialKingdom ""] Not sure how much I trust beat up Bills players but we'll see what happens. There seems to be more and more interdivisional moves happening. |

Well here's the thing with that. Just like the Damoine Lewis thing there's almost no risk. You've got to figure A. the money involved is relatively minimal B. Stroud is at worst a decent rotational DE and passing down DT C. the Pats will draft a defensive lineman at some point this year. If Stroud shows up for camp 80 lbs over weight wearing 1 cleat and 1 flip flop, the Pats were only so much invested in this move. |

I wasn't necessarily saying this is a bad move, but I don't think Stroud is gonna stick. |

All upside if the dude can still ball next to Wilfork. It makes sense too, in light of how Vince was playing outside of DT a lot in running situations. He can help clog the lanes even more. |
