98.5 assures me he's disgruntled about his contract. They base that on a fly that flew up Maz's nose.
We don't know why Butler isn't there. It is that simple.
After the season was over, many folks thought that Butler might or might not make the team. The doubters were convinced that he was likely to make it, even if he were the #5 CB.
When we lost a complete backfield (Revis, Browner, Arrington, Dennard and Chekwa), all of a sudden Butler was a sure starter.
As others have said, Butler NEEDS practice time.
Jonas Gray had one good game and then ended up on Belichick's dodo list. I hope Butler
hasn't done the same after one great play. He has to do more than just show up to earn a spot
on the 53 man roster. Every day Fletcher and Ryan practice, Butler is less apt to be a starter.
If Butler becomes a pain in the neck and can't concentrate on doing the job, he will be cut regardlessWhether or not Ryan or Fletcher beat him out is irrelevant. We play a nickle defense with at least three CBs 3/4 of the time, so there is obviously a need for him in some capacity.
Jonas Gray not only showed up late and then openly questioned it on twitter, but he also played at a position that had better options and depth ahead of him. That does not apply in Butler's case, at least in my opinion.
Never knew about his Twitter deal, thanks for the info. That explains it to me a bit better.Whether or not Ryan or Fletcher beat him out is irrelevant. We play a nickle defense with at least three CBs 3/4 of the time, so there is obviously a need for him in some capacity.

Ah. Yeah, he didn't want to believe you. I heard that. 'I'm going to double check this!'I called 98.5 's Adam Jones today. Even though I told the screener twice that I am Patscap. Adam was not sure that I was and asked me on Twitter if I was the Miguel who called.
The CBA prohibits the changing of an UDFA contract during its first two years.
Quoting CBA:
(ii) A Rookie Contract for an Undrafted Rookie may not be renegotiated, amended or altered in any way until after the final regular season game of the player’s second contract year.
Adam then tweeted "Ahh my mistake! Thanks for correcting so I didn't sound like an idiot for any longer than I had to. Why would CBA want to prohibit?"
