These threads are amazing. If I had a nickle for every time some Pats fan (who probably dosent know that much about the game to begin with) asks why "so and so" is on the team. Apparently these geniuses think these players are a complete waste of a roster spot while the pats FO seems to think that these players are the solution at that position given the price and options available.
Given that the pats FO seems to know what they are doing, I am going to defer to them and hope that these people gain a little more perspective.
This is not a Pom Pom forum.
Most of us try to view the team objectively.
As good a coach as Belichick is (the best ever in my eyes), he has been known to make a questionable roster move from time to time.
Drafting Ron Brace in the second round proves he is not perfect.
That being said, what will you be saying if Hoo-man is not on this team in 2015?
Anyone have a .gif of that Hooman catch vs. Miami last year?

I mean he is capable of occasionally pulling the rabbit out of the hat.In all seriousness, his catch a couple of weeks ago on the sidelines was really nice. He did an excellent job of going up over his head to haul in a throw, while still being aware of getting both feet in bounds. It was so good it actually surprised me a bit.
apparently he is an excellent practice player:
"Hoomanawanui was recognized as one of the team’s practice players of the week, an honor given to those the coaching staff feels best prepared the club in the days leading up a victory."

I saw Gronk blow a blocking assignment. Obviously he sucks. Since BB is an idiot and I know all, cut him. So it is written so shall it be done.
Guess what? Those linemen for SD (I forget their names) beat actual linemen and I hear rumors they GET PAID.
[\sarcasm]
Who is waving pom poms?
There are plenty of drafts busts for every team. What does that have to do with finding a better solution than Hoo? Sure Brace was a bust in retrospect but where are the better choices for Hoo from the "Experts" Or maybe BB just wants to have a lousy 3rd TE to spite BK? Not sure....
You are right Viewing the team objectively means to look at a roster and a salary cap. Not just calling out players who may not be up to uneducated standards.
Actually I wont give a **** if he is on the team, but what does that have to do with what was available at the beginning of the year, and available now as far as a better option?
By the way, Revis was not on the Bucks this year.
If Hooman misses blocks, then he has no value.
