First Belichick drafted Ohio State rugby star Nate Ebner. He is big and strong and fast. Now Belichick has added an Olympic silver medalist in track. Jeff Demps. He is fast and fast and fast. While the Jets toy with the idea of having their mediocre and over-paid back-up quarterback run some trick plays, Belichick is busy adding the most dangerous thing in the game ... speed.
Demps, who came home from London with a silver in the 4x100 relay, played in 51 games (starting 27) during his college career at Florida. In those games he scored 23 rushing touchdowns. He also returned kickoffs for the Gators. That's where he could be a weapon. The Pats' return game has not been a difference maker since Troy Brown in the early 2000s. It's one of the few weaknesses the team has had.
Belichick knows the Pats need more speed. You want speed? Take a look at these highlights (The "Patriots Suck" title apparently refers to the fact that the most hated team in football just signed the fastest football player on the planet). This is speed...
