As a result, nobody will even bet against the Pats solving their newly created defensive hole by inserting Barkevious Mingo, who failed in Cleveland.

Of course, it’s not necessarily a surprise that leaks came out of the Pats’ organization bad-mouthing Collins.
The addition of Collins was the opposite of what many expected, as the Browns were in a position to trade away talent.
Through three National Football League seasons, the fortunes of the two young men didn’t intersect. Mingo, meanwhile, did a slow fade in Cleveland.
Randy Moss had arguably the best season of career in 2007 with New England.
He’s never forced a fumble. Martellus Bennett is nursing an ankle injury now after opening his career in New England with a pair of 100-yard efforts and four touchdowns in the first five weeks. He made a lot of plays and helped us win a lot of ballgames. “Nothing.” The Browns acquired Collins on Monday for what will be either a third-round compensatory pick in the 2017 draft (if the Browns are awarded one) or a fourth-round pick in the 2018 draft.
Upon his arrival, NESN’s Doug Kyed began comparing the two players’ roles and styles.

However, Collins will be on a free agency by March and will command massive money. “That’s just the way it goes”, Brady said Wednesday before the team’s final practice of their bye week. Collins has been good in pass coverage (although Owen Daniels in the AFC Championship Game and Marshawn Lynch in the Super Bowl proved he can be beat) while Roberts is more of a downhill run stopper. He enjoyed playing the game. “I’ve been here before, so it’s really no big deal to me”. I’m sure there’s a lot of people out there that have got opinions. They were also having a hard time on the defensive end, despite the presence of defensive tackle Marcell Dareus, who is fresh off a four-game suspension for the violation of the league’s substance abuse policy. Van Noy is a tweener between the Collins/Mingo body-type and the stocky Roberts.
More of a family feel than in New England?: “Yeah, it’s a different level”.
The most likely and direct 1-for-1 though?
He also insisted it took him just 10 minutes to get over the shock.

“We have a good opportunity for our team this week to improve, kind of look back over the first half of the season, evaluate the things that we’re doing well, things that we’re not doing well”, he said.
