All the Patriots cuts merged mega thread

[NE39]

Page already knows our defense, considering he is coming from KC. If his roster exemption comes with him, he can take a couple weeks to get up to speed and step right in to help.

Could mean the Pats are going to carry 10 DBs or that McGowan is gone..

Either way, Bill has made this even more interesting

Is this guy any good? Somebody please tell me that he is at least serviceable.

Page seems like a no risk move. If he comes with the exemption, and is under a tender, we give hm 2 weeks to fit in, and let him go if he doesn't.
I dont know a lot about him, but I seem to remember he is a special teams ace.

GREAT. At least the pick is conditional. Jeez, of all the positions to trade for. Does BB dislike pass rushers?

He got hurt last year but had 10 INT's in the 3+ years he has played with the Chiefs.

sounds like he has skills

Page was a starter and played well on some bad KC teams. He was a late-round guy who played a lot. I'm not sure how he will translate into our defense, but he does have a lot of experience.

Albert Breer is saying "something is brewing" with James Sanders. I'm not sure what that means.

Take it for what it's worth, but kffl is reporting that James Sanders may be on his way out following this acquisition.

 

[NE39]

Page wasn't happy in KC and demanded a trade this offseason. Have to wonder how happy he is about coming to the Pats, as it is hard to imagine him playing over Chung and Meriweather. Big Nickel, maybe?

Maybe they were going to keep Brown until Page was available. KC was unloading him. Have to figure Sanders is gone. Lots of ST and backup guys gone this year. Although interesting, none of it creates a pass rush or stops the run.

Adam_Schefter After announcing his release, Philadelphia dealt LB Tracy White to New England for a conditional draft pick. Busy day for both teams.

Agree - kind of a weird move. A starter that is disgruntled comes to the Pats to be a nickel guy? Moving him to a part-time role will make him even happier?

 

[mloyko]

Being reported we acquired Tracy White for a conditional 2012 draft pick, dont know too much about him, probably at ST guy.

 

[NE39]

Adam Caplan says the Pats traded for Tracy White of the Eagles. He is an undersized ST-type LB who has been on several teams. Reportedly for a 2012 pick.

He was initially reported as being released, and now it's being reported we traded for him? What's this guy's story? Can he rush the QB?

Has one career sack; so I will say no

Oh great a journeyman LB. That fills quite a need

 

[NE39]

White is a Larry Izzo-type, LB who is just a ST guy. I guess those pining for a veteran ST player to replace Aiken will be happy.
