Transactions Before The Game With TENN

[Soliel]

I sure hope they do because I'm worried about what Dion can/will do to our LBs.

It won’t be pretty. He will run around everywhere. Meanwhile, Patterson will run theirs over so it’s going to be a strange game

Regardless whether or not Ferguson has enough realistic developmental potential to make the Pats active roster at some point, I'm pretty sure that he was signed specifically to play the role of D. Lewis on the scout team for the #1s on the Pats defense to practice against this week.

Could Ken-yawn Barner not have performed those particular duties this week? Why bring into the building Yet Another "3rd-down" RB?

 

[captain stone]

If I recall correctly, he's not PS eligible

Tears will not be shed.

Except by his biggest fan, @captain stone.

It's ok, there's always James Ferentz

...and Elandon Roberts...

Because once Rex comes back and Barner is cut, there is a risk Barner is signed somewhere and by bringing in Ferguson they have another backup plan to the old backup plan to the first backup's backup plan.

Redundancy is the navy way

The Titans have been targeting Lewis as a receiver this season about twice as frequently as the Pats ever did.

So, Ferguson's somewhat more frequent (and recent) usage as a receiver out of the backfield than Barner's is probably the difference.

- Barner (5 seasons): 21/34 tgts, 127 yds (Barner hasn't been targeted by Brady at all this season).
- Ferguson (2 seasons): 23/30, 152 yds

Ferguson is already gone. He’s been replaced with a WR from the Bucs practice squad. He was here about the same length as that highlights video someone posted.

...and Elandon Roberts...

Do you not think he's improved this year? Seems like he's a solid LB3 now.

You should copyright that one if its yours: Ken-yawn Barner!

Leave my boy Elandon be!

LOL! Yep, just came in from working and saw that. So much for THAT theory, anyway.

Sure has been a burst of transaction activity. None in week-7, none in week-8, one in week-9. Now, suddenly, 12 transactions in week-10. Getting ducks in a row for the BYE week, maybe?

Anyway, the Paterson kid who replaced Ferguson seems like possibly an acquisition for the Futures Contract list. The Pats often start positioning those guys on the Psquad about now.

Uh...No.

Has he played much (or any) STs this season, or during his career?

Yeah that could keep him unemployed, but how much experience do you need to make these STs?

I agree, and not having STs experience would certainly not be a deal-breaker for me to sign him, though it would obviously be nice if he had some.
