He felt so good about Ryan Mallett that he cut Hoyer last season, and carried only two QBs. Only twice in his coaching history has he only carried two QBs, one of whom was a sophomore QB. Tom Brady and now Ryan Mallett.
Brian Hoyer says hi.
Apparently the Patriots either didn't want to, or were simply unable to, add a rookie QB, either drafted or undrafted.
What do you make of this state of affairs?
Here's the thing. The Pats are only going to keep 2 QB's on the 53, but for TC they'll want to go with 4 arms at least, in order to limit Brady's throws to a reasonable level. As to Kafka, he's an interesting prospect. If he does real well the Pats might be more willing to trade Mallett if there is a QB injury that make it a legitimate possibility. I think Cleveland is still a possibility if they don't like what they see from Weeden in their OTA's. As for Kafka, I think he still has PS eligibility, and if he looks good, the Pats would pay him a premium (up to the full 2nd year minimum) to keep him there. BB will always have 3 arms during the season for practice, I think he's become accustomed to having only 2 on the roster.
Don't forget we will have Tebow and Edelman as emergency QBs
As you know, we'll have four QB's for camp.
Patriots haven't brought more than 3 QBs to training camp since 09.
We've invited UDFA QB Ryan Osieck from New Haven to minicamp
