How the Patriots’ roster could shake out
Things I agree with: For the initial cut, the RB roster is just Ridley, Vereen, White and Develin. Bolden is solid depth, but replaceable (and unlikely to be scooped right up). Carry a couple of RBs on the practice squad to backfill.
Also, Volin seems to have done a 180 from his "deer in the headlights" bit and now says Garoppolo looked good on Thursday.
Things I disagree with: Surprising DB depth. Butler and Chung are both cut, while Kanorris Davis makes the 53? Hard to imagine.
Things that set my teeth on edge: Ben Volin has no idea that Brian Tyms is suspended for the first 4 games, and no idea that Darius Fleming exists. (Psst, Ben -- PatsPicker.)
