Free Agent DE Jarvis Green Taking His Time To Evaluate Teams

Free agent defensive end Jarvis Green and his agent, Albert Elias, sat back during the first few days of free agency, making phone calls and focusing on how teams would use him instead of taking visits. Tomorrow, expect the veteran Patriot to either begin taking trips to prospective employers or begin to finalize a deal to stay in New England. Either way, Green hopes to land with a team who will use him as an inside, nickel rusher in the 3-4 scheme and Elias believes Green, at 6-foot-3, 285-pounds, is the only available player who can fill that role. “We are in a unique, unique position to be a free agent,” Elias said yesterday. “We believe he was the only person in free agency in his role, a down lineman who can rush and have sacks in the 3-4 scheme. Numbers prove it. We weren’t worried Friday, because we knew there was nobody (like him). We’ve studied the market. It was our job to interview teams, talk numbers, and determine how teams are really going to use him and if he’ll be able to be successful,” Elias said. “I like players finishing contracts. That’s why we’re still in the process of fielding calls. If he’s used in the way he wants to be, he can play as long as he wants.”

this seems like a perfect fit for us. we sign green, that's one more thing to cross off the draft list with our five picks and we can focus on wr, te, and cb.
