        Sign him as a buck c if he can fill a need. Special teams a must. I like Dangerfield but he could be replaced.

            Patriots signing safety Obi Melifonwu

            The Patriots have built a reputation by picking up castoffs and finding new roles for them, and they’re trying it again with their secondary.

            According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, former Raiders safety Obi Melifonwu is signing with New England.

            Melifonwu has made the rounds since being released by Oakland in Oct. 23 (though he was waived-injured in August), taking visits with the Cowboys, Saints, and Chiefs as well.

            His athleticism was what drew the Raiders to take him 56th overall in 2017, and the Patriots have often figured out how to tap into such potential.
            Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

            Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

            We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

            We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
