PATRIOTS NEWS Patriots Unofficial 2023 53-Man Roster

[Zuma]

Wade sucks Is the sole reason he isn't on the field.. he's taken up a roster space for 3 seasons.. almost as bad as draft bust Williams

He was outstanding in the slot in college. He hasn’t translated that to the NFL.

Yeah... same as Williams who was a baller in college just couldn't adapt to the NFL either

 

[captain stone]

Ok I get you don't like Monty. But Gesicki will be a WR in the Patriots offense. He's going to have 700ish yards...mark it down...

It isn't Gesicki - though he should be listed with the TEs - but somebody else on that list...

 

[captain stone]

That's your opinion. He was excellent at RT in my opinion.

Don't know about excellent; but Onwenu was certainly decent at RT in 2020, and wasn't the catastrophe there that Lose/Lose was this past season.

 

[captain stone]

Unlike Wade, Tavai had actually been spotted on the field and made plays. Wade sucks! I don't believe he probably even made the made field in OTAs.. he sucks point blank or he'd be on the field not myles away bryant..

I like this name!

Just two really... This will be his third.

A metaphysical impossibility.

I don't know how often he's been in the Slot here either... Seems whenever I've seen him he's been Outside...

Feels like 4 seasons really he been here.. I'd love to collect a pay check and not have to perform job duties too

You'll see him on the outside plenty when cutdown happens end of camp!

The media reports are that Jack Jones has been great this Spring. Wade not so much. Some guys seem to get it, others not. No idea why.

To me.. we know as fans as we watch our team that wich guys are good and have ability. I want to see if our defense wich is already elite can slow elite QBs and WRs. Nothing better than having AJ brown and hurts for the first of many test of the season!

On the outside looking in?

On the outside looking in?

I believe so.. he just hasn't proven himself or done anything of significance to earn a roster spot.. or he can be put on the roster spot so when a special teams player goes down he can be brought up. He and myles away may be fighting for practice squad spots.

Perhaps. But, for now, they are both competing for the 5th CB spot, and the backup PR spot in the case of Byrant.

Yeah. 5th corner I'm not sure that guy even dresses on game day.. but then again we do play formations with alot of DBs on the field against pass heavy offenses.

Jack is a natural Outside CB; Wade IMO is a more-natural fit at Free Safety, where he can face the action, use his 4.46 speed to track the ball, and then bring his superior tackling ability to full force. IOW, what DMac gave us for a decade... after he himself proved insufficient at Outside CB.

The way the game is being pushed, your defense needs to have at least Five competent, professional CBs in the building. The only way we reach 5 is if both Mills & Jon Jones stay at CB; but that leaves us short at FS because Wade hasn't been cross-training there for some stupid reason.

Perhaps, after seeing him in every practice for 3 years, the coaches have decided that he is not a viable option for free safety.

 

[p8ryts]

There are plenty of options at free safety. There is no need to panic.

We have the rookie CB as well and some undrafted guys I'm sure will be in the mix as well once camp rolls around.. with the situation with JJ this unfortunately means myles away Bryant is likely still on this team.
