Who DOESN'T make the roster - Page 3 - New England Patriots Forums

It seems that Ohrnberger should and will be beaten out. He seemed an aweful pick last year. And this year, I would rather have Connolly (our best backup guard not named Kaczur), Larsen (perhaps our best backup center) or even Bussey (a LT and OG)

We've brought in Warren and Lewis to replace Green and upgrade Pryor. I would be disappointed if they both don't make it and lose one of their roster spots to Pryor.

Usually you're sensible, but this is nuts.

(1) Aiken - sorry excuse for a WR and roster spots are too valuable for a 1 trick jackass. Adios.

(2) Wilhite - Useless. Any WR matched up with him will have a career high day. Buh - Bye

(3) Wheatley - Nothing special and always injured.

Wilhite still is more than likely our 4th corner, and there are definitely plays that call for having 4 corners on the field. It's hard to cut him with no clear upgrade.

1) Lewis - Not a great fit for the 34 plus I'm sill hoping Brace and Prior can emerge into quality players.

2) Patton - Love him but he only makes the team if Holt and the young guys have no game.

3) Slater - I've never been a fan.

4) Wheatley - I'd love to see him start to resemble the player described in his scouting report but I'm losing patience.

5) Koppen - For this to happen Ted Larson would really have to emerge which I'd love to see. I like Koppen but we need a center who can hold his own against the Kris Jenkins' of the world.

6) Alexander - Too much competition to survive.

7) Aiken - Too much competition to survive.

8) Woods - Too much competition to survive.

Only CB who isn't an UDFA I can see being cut is Wheatley. Wilhite probably will be fine as a third or fourth corner, as long as he doesn't have to go against a star receiver.

What was it about Ohrnberger's play that disappointed you?

Aiken was not on the roster as a WR, it was because of his special teams play; he was the S/T captain. If not for the failures of Galloway and Lewis to produce, Aiken would not (and should not) have ever had a pass thrown to him.

As for Wilhite and Wheatley, let me ask you this: who do you suggest should be the fourth corner?

***Dragda*** · 07-12-2010, 12:54 PM

G. Warren, D. Patten, Slater, Crable come to mind
