[Eric Moore] is an interesting player when it comes to the Patriots’ 2011 roster. He is 30 years old, joined the club in December and played a variety of roles – rush end, outside linebacker, defensive end in the 3-4. He started three games because of some injuries. Bill Belichick was asked about Moore on the final day of the draft and said: “He came in here at the end of the year at the tail end of the season and was able to contribute. I don’t think that’s the easiest thing to do. A player has got to have some things going for him to be able to do that. It would be nice to work with him through an entire season – whether it’s minicamp, training camp, whatever it happens to be, and give him an opportunity from the beginning, and see if that is helpful to their performance and production.”
