PATRIOTS NEWS 2016 COMBINED: Pats Roster Transactions

[manxman2601]

Damn!

 

[RobertWeathers]

They'll most likely get cut. Probably hasn't been any official confirmation from reporters yet.

There is no reason to keep Vellano if they have AJ.

 

[AtomicDawg]

Damn!

Wondering if it was an injury waiver to have him go to IR or not. Oh well. 4 to go.

 

[AtomicDawg]

I count only two cuts left and it has to be the injured TE and Vellano

They are at 57. 4 to 53.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Damn!

I dunna know. I thought he was just OK. I liked his size. Reminded me of David Givens.

 

[raduray]

With regards to picking up players cut by other teams, or even our own, how long is the waiver period?

 

[long distance]

Lucien still might go to IR.
They might cut more than 4 - to bring someone in.

Pressure got to him a bit. He's better than he showed in pre-season.

 

[long distance]

TJ Jones from Lions?

 

[RobertWeathers]

I tend to agree. I didn't think Givens was anything special in 02 either and look what happened.

Teams have to put in waiver claims for all released players before 12 pm eastern the day after final cuts.

If a player was cut and not claimed on waivers that morning, and are practice squad eligible, they can then be signed to a team's PS.

And then at the start of Sept 8th (12:00 am Eastern) the top 51 rule (see Miguel's timeline for details) is no longer in effect.

 

[AtomicDawg]

Ok this is new...

 

[raduray]

Ok this is new...

What exactly does that mean?

 

[RobertWeathers]

Ok this is new...

I think I follow...

So at 5pm the NFL will publish a list of every single roster move made by every team so every team can see it.

I wonder what spawned that? Don't they have some kind of notification on transactions that they get from the league office?

In the day of firehosing twitter feeds and texts and big data can't some quality control kid dump them all into a spreadsheet?

 

[AtomicDawg]

What exactly does that mean?

Probably that some teams will still be deciding on cuts or aren't ready to send the completed list to NYJFL* HQ.

 

[raduray]

Interesting. I wonder how his bullet wound healed.

Yeah the league gets all the lists and send them. But odd nonetheless.

Holy moly. That is huge. What are they doing to that D?

 

[raduray]

Pulling a Colts? Suck for TBD?

That's very interesting, but as for coming here, he can kick rocks
