2016 Practice Squad

[AtomicDawg]

Rufus Johnson wasn't seen today.

One guess where Gause played in college.

The New England Scarlet Knights everyone!

And yep...Rufus is a goner...

 

[VrabelMayeWin]

No complaints here -- as much as we all joke about BB's Rutgers obsession, the three significant draft picks from Jersey were all hits: McCourty, Ryan and Harmon. Bring on the Scarlet Knights!

A lot better than the crew we brought in from Florida and Stanford (Richards, Flemming, Gaffney).

I'm a 'Bama fan but we've had two successful UDFA signees from Auburn the past two years, Bill seems to like the ST players there recently.

It must have been a really tough call for the coaching staff. Jones most likely made the cut over LeBlanc for his special teams contributions. Have to admit he looked good out there. With the two LBers, they are very similar guys in that they are essentially hybrid LBer/safety types. Undersized (very athletic) LBers. Roberts is a bit more of a tacking machine but they are both still raw. Mingo is another one of these hybrid guys. Belichik is stockpiling here and KGH is the odd man out, possibly by a slim margin.

I was not that impressed with LeBlanc. I think Jones beat him out because he is a better corner.
KGH is just too small. 220 is a lot different that 235 at LB. Roberts has a chance to develop into a LB, and Hill was never more than a special teamer here.

I agree that JJ beat out LeBlanc, and JJ would appear to have more upside, he ran the fastest Combine 40 yard dash for a CB and he was a National 110 meter hurdles Champion in High School, so he is clearly an outstanding athlete. Plus, he started for 4 years at Auburn and was voted First Team all SEC by the Coaches poll, so his college production was also top notch. I like his upside, I hope he doesn't get cut now that we brought in Howe.

McCaffrey here sooner than expected ...

 

[long distance]

6.5 / we're scouting the hoops now

 

[long distance]

So Rufus wasn't taken to another 53 but released from PS. That must hurt.
Wow. He was not looking good in preseason but I didn't think BB would see him as bad.





EDIT: I was not always nice to Rufus ... but Sunseri over him? Thats strange.
(I know there was that hug, but still ...)

And soon this will be the new helmet.

 

[scott99]

Wow, 5 receivers tried out, definitely a pattern there, some of them big, and explosive.

I think a safety will go.

It's really ridiculous but you can't argue with the quality of talent and the people that come out of that school.

 

[zydecochris]

I think a safety will go.

That makes sense to me.

 

[The Gr8est]

I think a safety will go.

Not saying who it should be, but it should rhyme with Bustin Stitchards.

 

[Jimke]

Like Canty

Not saying who it should be, but it should rhyme with Bustin Stitchards.

Like Chris Canty of yesteryear, Richards is much too slow to keep up with the pace of pro football.

 

[Palm Beach Pats Fan]

Not saying who it should be, but it should rhyme with Bustin Stitchards.

I'm not saying either who gets dropped from the practice squad, but it rhymes with Benny Funteri

 

[meatface]

Projected to be starters? Over Palmer, Smith and Manning? Really?

i mean at one point, not this year

 

[captain stone]

I wouldn't mind seeing Jordan Leslie replacing Devin Street on the PS. The rest…not worth the bother.

 

[captain stone]

Not saying who it should be, but it should rhyme with Bustin Stitchards.

Or better still, with Vandon Singh.

 

[long distance]

About Mike Hilton...yep, he's a Patriot:

was ...



i wonder who's coming in ... or maybe to 53?
