Player Signing Patriots Practice Squad Updates

[Ross12]

The PS signings should be starting around now. Additionally, players hitting IR from the 53-man roster should be announced soon. Let's discuss both of those topics as they happen here.

Bill Murray makes the practice squad!

I guess he's got that going for him, which is nice...

Bill Murray is the new James Ferentz.

Well, he did stay in the area after the cut.
Was having a blast in Mattapoisett at Turk's Seafood last night.

Only Asiasi got claimed. If nothing else it suggests we put entirely too much stock in what reporters/outsiders see in practice, especially as it relates to our bubble players.

Kinda surprised Humphrey didn't get claimed after the camp he had. Glad he's back though.

So, Hello, Dalai.

Interesting that Asiasi was claimed. He has a good attitude, and I hope we do not miss him. BB usually is correct after seeing a player for as long as he saw Asiasi, so I assume he will not emerge.

What’s the deal with Ray though.

Agreed. But with keeping 10 rookies, there might be some more rookie gems (as opposed to 2nd or 3rd year players) that we could not keep on the 53 because there was no more room. If we claim a rookie it is better from a team with a strong rookie class than a weak rookie class. For example, the Ravens were loaded with DBs last year and we traded for Wade.

His father was a truck driver? @Urgent

I was a little surprised at how well he played as a converted O lineman.

If he sticks at it and puts on some weight for next season then maybe he can be a decent reserve OL who can play DL in a pinch.
