Vincent Valentine to IR

Not open for further replies.
Valentine to IR. Scrub/Jag/Useless Grissom promoted to active roster. God help us.

Patriots place DT Vincent Valentine on injured reserve and promote DE Geneo Grissom to active roster
Do you have the same attitude towards the other STO players: Ebner, King, Flowers, Bademosi and Bolden? Grissom has played a lot of teams for us.

We didn't need a replacement for Valentine on the 53, and certainly not to be active this week. We already have 4 DT's: Branch, Butler, Brown and Guy.

The pictures bequette held of BB were forwarded to grissom upon bequettes final dismissal from the team.

LOL. The question is who is the next third round bust who steals grissoms pictures to obtain a roster spot?

If Lamar Houston has anything left, they should grab him. He was a beast...until that stupid celebration leap.

At the same time, I feel like this would be Jordan Richards too. Even though he was drafted in a different round. amazing he has stuck on the roster too

not amazing to Belichick

Richards has had lots and lots of reps on ST's in 2016 and 2017.

He also gets reps as a dimeback LB. Patricia doesn't need to use him here. He chooses to do so. He is also Chung's backup. Belichick could have signed or promoted someone else. Perhaps, he knows more about how well Richards is doing than we do.

Grissom also had some DE reps, although he was more of a STO player.

Bequette had almost no reps at all.
 
Jordan Richards sucks, as predicted.

GeeNo Grossem sucks, as predicted.

Vinnie Valentine was a waste of a 3rd-round pick, as predicted.

That is all………for now.
 
at a certain point you stop being upset, and just laugh in the fact of the cursed injury monster.

Most agree with you. I don't see it. IMHO, in the offseason and through today, we've had a very manageable number of injuries.

We've had a seemingly normal number of players out for a game or two. Hightower, Amendola and Gronkowski are hardly surprises.

IR
We've lost ONE starter. We've lost a couple of rookies (one to IR and one non football), others are contributing. We've also lost our #5 WR, a backup DT, a backup linebacker who some wanted cut, and a DB who almost everyone wanted cut.
=====
I suspect that other teams have lost more. What am I missing?

Except you predict Every. Single. Player. we draft or sign will be a bust, and simply avoid talking about the ones that turn out great. So your fortune telling powers aren't that impressive.

Valentine looked like a starter when healthy and Branch is currently in the doghouse for poor play. That leaves Brown, Butler, and Guy. I wonder if they consider bringing him back from IR instead of McClellan.

You are presuming that after two games, Branch is done and is not even good enough to backup Butler?

I'd sure like that waste in the middle of the D-line and healthy.
