Lamont Jordan to the Patriots

[wwharton]

I think he's better in a committee too but don't forget he put up great numbers his first year in Oakland as the main man. Last year he had injuries, their line, rotating QBs to go along with Fargas stepping up.

Jordan might not even make the team, depending on how Faulk has progressed/degressed. The Pats very well may suit 5 runningbacks on gameday: Evans, Maroney, Morris, Faulk, Jordan. I don't see Jordan getting a lot of carries, I think it will be mostly Maroney and Morris getting the carries with Jordan and Faulk being involved in the passing game/blocking.

Also, he was playing for the Raiders. Maybe now that he has a better O-line Jordon will be more productive

And there goes another ex-Raider that will have a better season with his new team. smh.

You guys think this is a good pick-up? He has a bad back, and all the Raiders have been good at the last two seasons is running the ball. Its a decent, DECENT, depth pick-up, thats it.

I swear, the Patriots could go out and sign the corpse of Red Grange, and some people would be calling it the free agent pick-up of the off season.

So his success on the Jets was a fluke too? Jordan can play. Healthy he can be a starter in the NFL... I wouldn't put him in the probowl but signing a potential starting RB to add depth is a good pick up... and I'm FAR from a Pats fan.

I don't like the pats, and also think Jordan stinks...so it's like a win-win situation for me

Nice pick up for the pats.
