It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Such a stupid decision to IR him with a wrist injury.@dougkyed: The Patriots could technically waive CB Darryl Roberts off IR with an injury settlement then re-sign him, but he'd be exposed to every team.
Loophole gamble is possible
He hasn't shown that he can play the position very well. Seems like you would just be weakening two positions then instead of one.Think we can increasingly expect to see more of DMc at CB, especially in nickel/dime. Not an awesome development, but at least Harmon has been playing well at S.

If they waive him with an injury settlement can he still be claimed off waivers? I don't think he would clear waivers.Actually, they would have to wait several weeks before they could re-sign him. I believe it's the number of weeks of the settlement +3 or +6.. They did that with Larry Centers way back.
I like Butler and Ryan just fine, they'll give up some big plays, just concede that because they're young, etc. but they'll make a lot of plays on the ball.
Anyone know if Troy Brown is available??

I think they’ll mix McCourty and Harmon in at CB, run a ton of 3-4 safety sets.Butler, Ryan and Coleman have been playing well. We're fine if there are no further injuries. Harmon can be the dime back.
Yes, we have depth issues. Melvin is an attempt to address this need.
So, your position is that the vast majority of good or top corners in the NFL are top draft picks and picked before we first pick at 30 or so?
Sure the Pats are thin now with CBs actually on the roster. But gotta be some comfort in knowing 5mil in cap space going to Revis. You're still helping the division at least.
Ha just jokes guys. I know it sucks. Last year was freakin miserable with our secondary and all the injuries. If anyone can get it to work, it's BB. Hopefully better luck (excluding Jets weeks of course).
Why take the chance on waiving him? Claim Charles James off waivers from the Ravens, he was just put there.
Leave Harmon where he is. He has very little experience as a CBI think they’ll mix McCourty and Harmon in at CB, run a ton of 3-4 safety sets.
