btw Izzo is the only TE that can actually block on the roster..
So we either give up a 3rd and a 4th for Sanders or a second for Sanu. Lack of injury concerns and extra year worth it?
To have enough money for Sanu, don't we have to cut or restructure someone before the signing is official?
14So...Sanu wearing 17?
Oh I agree. It would be ideal to have a great TE but we don’t have that luxury so maybe that’s the next best thing?Good blocking TEs can be competitive even against DEs. This is not even close to being the same.
You won't force opponents into base even with tall blocking WRs. But that is where you often want them in as it is easiest to exploit due to less versatile personnel and more basic coverage rules.
Richards and GunnarApparently Patriots signing Justin Bethel, per Doug Kyed.
Special teams ace - Baltimore cut him because Brent Urban was released elsewhere, which negated a potential fourth-round comp pick. They valued the future comp pick higher, and dropped Bethel to negate his entry in the comp pick ledger.
So who goes? Need two slots.
BB is talking about the trade on WEEI, so we can consider it done.
Bill Belichick tells @OMFonWEEI that he expects DE Michael Bennett back in the building tomorrow after his week-long team suspension.
Might as well drop Stidham now that we have Sanu
Hm seems to be positive. Guess he could have said he expects all healthy players to practice or some blanket bs.Following up on this (sort of), BB was asked if Bennett would be with the team and at practice tomorrow, and he said that he expected he would.
So, that would seem to indicate that there's no Bennett trade pending, at least not yet.
So 2 more good post season runs and it could look a little more like
(1) Julian Edelman
(2) Jerry Rice
The Patriots are releasing DB/special teamer Jordan Richards, per league source.
