New England is ideal landing spot for Freeney

The Indianapolis Colts have told free agent Dwight Freeney that he will not be re-signed this offseason, making the 11 year veteran available to teams in need of a savvy veteran pass rusher with some gas left in the tank. I expect the New England Patriots to bring him in for a work out one free agency begins. The Patriots need a pass rusher and Freeney can provide just that. He had a quiet season in 2012 but that's in large part due to the fact that after playing as a defensive end his first ten years in the league he was forced to play outside linebacker for the first time, a tough transition for any player to make. If the Patriots were to sign Freeney, who turns 33 this month, they would be getting a smart, talented, durable player who would improve their defense for a fair price. After 11 seasons in the league most players have made the big bucks and are financially satisfied and they'll take a pay cut to win a Super Bowl, we'll see if that's the case with Dwight Freeney.
