Thanks for the info. For a team as cap strapped as NE, though, I think those are fundamentally the same.
The patriots have over $3.8M in cap room.

I take it you didn't see when 3 of the 4 TDs came from the 4-Man TE Formation?
I fail to see how Williams is anything more than a JAG taking up a roster space, but I'm glad someone has high hopes for the kid...
What I saw was a sluggish Williams line up in a T/TE position on every instance of the formation playcall and never split out once. He's strictly a blocking TE. Cameron Flemming did basically the same thing all last season and still could now.

Where did I say I had high hopes?
Williams needs some time to get in TE shape and probably lose a few pounds. More than likely he had to bulk up to play tackle.

So we still think Ebner stays over Wilson?
No doubt in my mind at all. Ebner is the better Special Teams player.So we still think Ebner stays over Wilson?
My understanding was that Wilson was injured.. Hence the deactivation.Well, Ebner was active on Thursday and Wilson wasn't. . . .
My guess is that Miami promoted Jonas Gray to their active roster bc BB was about to poach him off their PS.

Agreed. I could see that role being on the goal line for 2 point conversions.Alge Crumpler played 52% of the offensive snaps in 2010 at what appeared to be an awfully similar weight to what Williams is listed at right now. There's definitely a role in the offense for that kind of player.
Saints lose a safety...

Maybe Tavon impressed them at during the joint practices and the pats can trade him for a draft pick or a bag of magic beans
