WOW! The Pats just keep rolling with making such great moves.
I didn't realize you worked in the Pats' front office. So tell me, what color shirt was Pioli wearing today? I love it when complete outsiders judge decisions they know very little about.
First signing Walter, release Gabriel, then re-signing Gus Scott
Unrelated. Walter and Gabriel were signed to the 53-man roster.
Guss Scott was signed to the practice squad.
Again, you're making assumptions based on the fact that, what, you read about the Pats making these moves? That's it.
Who they cut all the time and then re-sign.
Oh, yes, "all the time."
They've cut him ONCE, genius. September 2nd of this year.
They seem like they can't make up their fu@$#!@ mind when managing their roster.
Give some (actual) examples. You're batting 0-3 so far.
Guss Scott was on the Texans and Jets for most of this year. It wasn't like he's been available for practice squad duty the past 4 months.
Know what else? SITUATIONS CHANGE. Their singing and re-signing of Mruczkowski is based on A) The health of the OL and B) The health of other positions on the roster. If there are holes elsewhere, Mruczkowski is expendable.
You've proven time and time again you now absolutely jack about the mechanics of managing a roster.
Unless you wanted to give steroids Sauerbrun or a rookie (Baugher) a shot, Walter knew the system, was well-liked by BB, and was the best option for the team. What's this? The best option?!? What a novel concept.
For the production they got out of Gabriel in the first half of the season, pre-Caldwell emergence, it's worth the 5th rounder they gave up.
