Everyone is going to go to NE and win the SB, I know. Honestly, I'm surprised the NFL just doesn't let them have a roster of 1000 players so everyone can go there and win a bunch of SBs and make their former teams super jealous.
It isn't all that farfetched. The Patriots seem to be the destination of those wanting to win the SB. Dillon (though that was before the hype), Revis, Chad and Moss both tried (and failed). AB just attempted it and he is still interested in being a Patriot.
I am not saying it as a threat. Only as something that would be funny.
Rex Burkhead and James Develin are both players that this organization had and let go. Both have not just gone to NE, they have succeeded there. Burkhead was just as instrumental to NE's SB win as James White was. Many times we have players that are actually pretty good, but we don't keep them for whatever reason. They then go to another team and play extremely well.
So with the bashing of Dalton that is extremely evident on this board, it would be funny to see him succeed and even win SBs. Of course many fans wouldn't like that as it would expose them as not being good at evaluating talent.
