DAN KOPPEN RUMORS & GOSSIP
Dan Koppen and Dan Connolly will compete for Patriots’ starting center job
Dan Koppen had been the Patriots’ starting center for years, but an ankle injury ended his 2011 season week 1. He resigned with the Patriots and is calling himself 100%, but the Boston Globe says it’s currently Connolly’s job to lose. Connolly is a pretty mediocre player ranking 27th out of 35 eligible centers on ProFootballFocus last year, but Koppen is 33 in September and...

NE Patriots – one comes back, one takes his talents to South Beach
Looks like the Patriots are going to have to change their draft board and what holes they need to fill, as they now have some more depth on the offensive line, but lost some linebacker depth.
The team reported Friday that it’s bringing back 9-year veteran Dan Koppen, signing him to a 2-year/$6 million contract. This move will create some competition with the recently re-signed...

Dan Koppen returning to Patriots
Good news from Adam Schefter today as Tom Brady’s long time center will be back in the mix for 2012. I’m not sure how it will play out between Koppen and his 2011 replacement Dan Connolly but really it doesn’t matter at this point. Injuries are a huge part of the game and you can never have too many good, experienced offensive lineman to protect...

Patriots chose their Dan to sign between Connolly and Koppen
The New England Patriots have signed the five-year veteran Dan Connolly to a contract according to a league source. This signing most likely closes the door on nine-year veteran Dan Koppen’s time in Foxboro.
Koppen lost all but one game last year to a broken ankle and was placed on injured reserve in September.
Connolly filled in for him and played very well in the 14 regular...
