Jones signed

FOXBOROUGH -- The Patriots have taken the field for their minicamp practice today and there is a new player on board -- receiver C.J. Jones. Jones was signed as a free agent and would have to be considered a longshot to make the roster. He's wearing jersey No. 2.

A longshot? I nominate that remark for Understatement of the Year.

Originally signed as an undrafted free agent by the Browns in 2003. Was on and off their roster in 2003. Spent the entire 2004 season on the Browns' practice squad. Was out of football after getting cut before the 2005 season. Signed by Seahawks after the 2005 season, cut before the 2006 season.

He has 1 accrued season (Browns, 2003), so he'll be on the books for $360k.

Yep. Gostowski would have better odds of kicking a ball through the Gillette uprights standing on the 50 yard line.......of Giants Stadium.

LOL Why do this to someone?

Look we are going to sign you but you have 0% chance of making this team.

Jones: What about on special teams?

Team: What part of 0% wasnt clear?

Don't get too upset. They only need him for practice.

desi-patsfan · 06-07-2007, 10:17 AM

just wait for a couple days, they will sign a TE and maybe a couple of QBs.

Let me make an official prediction.
Pats will trade a wideout to someone before the start of camp. TENN is desperate for a WR with Givens still injured and possibly headed to PUP then IR.
