Making the rounds...

Backup QB spot

Will the Patriots add a veteran quarterback before the start of training camp?

If the team plans to do so, one of the top possibilities is Jay Fiedler. A free agent, Fielder currently has three teams he's considering, according to the St. Petersburg Times: the Buccaneers, Giants, and "a team that wishes to remain anonymous."

The Patriots often prefer to fly under the radar when it comes to personnel moves, so it wouldn't be surprising if they've at least explored a move for Fiedler.

The team currently has Tom Brady and Matt Cassel atop the quarterback depth chart. The Patriots have employed a veteran signal-caller in each of Bill Belichick's six years as coach, but currently don't have one on the roster.

Fiedler would be electric as a Patriot

watch brady go down, the elf plays lights out, and leads them to the superbowl

I wouldn't be surprised if the Titans grab him.

I guarantee you, Fiedler will play well with the Pats.  They are a mistake-free team that fits his style of play perfectly.  That'd be a great fit for him, and he'd probably beat us.

Dave, you're a little late for April Fool's Day.

Mistake free play fits Fiedler's style perfectly because he plays mistake prone.

You guys forget - I think Fiedler sucks, but he wins games when his role isn't a large one. 

We won a ton of games with him.  As a Pat, they'll play good around him and make him not have to do that much.
