Reece

[RobertWeathers]

Isn't anyone worried about the lack of depth at DT. We have Branch and Brown. Vincent Valentine was injured on sunday, and Hughes has signed with Tampa Bay.

Yes.

"And now ever since Belichick started that dual fullback offense that won them those Super Bowls we've seen a lot of dual fullback formations Al."

"That's right Chris, goes back to that 59-0 AFC title game where Develin and Reece scored 4 touchdowns a piece vs Denver."

Cool.

Gotta say, my first thought was that the Pats stunk it up so badly yesterday that they would get Beasley Reece doing their games on TV from now on ...

I'll take this Reese over Marcel Reece

Bolden avoided major injury, I heard. But he's likely out for a while. This is a Bolden replacement,.

We really haven't seen much of the newbies - Rowe and Mingo. Now we can add Reece to the mix.

Or we should hold our horses .. and wait IF it materialises .. before starting mixing

Gronk
Edelman
Bennett
Hogan

• If the duo are going to play on Sunday, they must be activated by 4 PM Saturday. https://twitter.com/DougKyed/status/783057621536342016 …
  

So, we don't need to make cuts until Saturday!

 

[Mack Herron]

No Reece signing Monday.

 

[Ross12]

So, uhh...

Where is this guy?

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

How about Baby Gronk? He could fill the same role. Plus I think the Pat's should get Bennett's brother so he doesn't feel slighted by the baby Gronk signing.

 

[Love The Drake]

Smy guess handshake agreement and we are making other roster moves

Justin Forsett just released by Ravens

He couldn't even make it through a whole movie. And you expect him to last the season ?

Reese had one of those Gayle Sayers- type movie roles. He didn't last long but he burned bright

So? Unless someone is hurt in practice this week, it makes little difference if the cuts are Wednesday or Saturday.

Of course, it would better that any ADDS be made ASAP

All I want for Xmas is Reece in a Pats uniform.

 

[supafly]

As previously mentioned, I think Reece would be here by now if it were any other year.

Yep. We seem to have a particularly stacked roster this year in terms of depth. No obvious players you'd release to bring someone like Reece in.

The only place where I see almost too much depth is at WR with (currently) Dola and Mitchell almost getting no snaps at all as a consequence of the 2 TE offense. But then again, a) injuries happen and b) we can at any point spread teams out with 5 pretty good WRs.

Unfortunate situation..

 

[mgteich]

Nothing about our offensive depth is "an unfortunate situation".

The team has players that are happy with.

2 QB
4 WR
2 TE
1 WR/ST
4 RB (Lewis to replace Foster)
1 FB
8 OL (Jackson to be added when ready, or replacing Karras; Vollmer may or may not be added).

We don't seem to have proven depth at TE, even though we have two bodies: Derby and Scruggs.

Perhaps, Belichick would jump at someone who MIGHT be helpful as a backup or 3rd blocking TE. OH, he's already done that in signing Scruggs.
