Two Backs Gone

The Pats were never planning on re-signing RB's Shane Vereen or Steven Ridley. They will either draft one or sign an undrafted college player.

Vereen parlayed his time in New England into a nice three year deal with the Giants. Ridley tries to find a team willing to take a chance with a guy coming back from tearing his MCL and ACL in his knee last season.

Ridley visited the Jets and Dolphins this week. He needs to get a one year contract and show what he can do. He can get a good pay day next year at this time if things work out.
