Player Signing Patriots Claim 4 on Waivers

[palialka]

I hope it’s 4 among BoneyT, Leverett, Eukalele, Pharma, Ellis, Bolden & Pettus.

My guess is Ellis, Bolden, Boutte and MJ. I think they can move all those guys to the PS.

We still can sign any of the veterans. Presumably that takes a bit of time. After all, the player can get more than one offer, and work out the details of his contract.

What are the chances that Chuks could be cut?

None.

[p8ryts]

Well who do you want cut instead?

Bell ,Reagor Jordan, would prefer Leverette but can anyone snap the ball better, Dial

 

[Toofy]

They really like Boutte potential and don't feel he will make it through waivers.. was our top receiver in preseason. Should count for something . But why was bolden released instead of dial. I thought dial was a worse JAG than bolden who bat least has speed element and return capabilities.

Thornton has a skillset and potential, he just needs to stay healthy. Ekuale fills a roll as a 3rd down interior rusher, but unfortunately we are going to have to make him a full time player because we cheaper out, the rest have no value in an NFL roster.

Who needs an underperforming malcontent?

I call him Fried Okra.
Which is also slimy

Bolden and Dial were pretty equally rated prospects. Bolden is a year older and a year away from football.
Dial has a greater chance to improve
Neither are likely to ever really make much of a positive contribution to a football team.

 

[mgteich]

We added Curtis Jacobs a LB. He is needed since Takitaki and Mapu are out. I don't think that we are cutting a LB; one could go on IR.

 

[Ring 6]

I hope the pro scouting department knows what they are doing. Seems like a big zero… just churn

When you suck maybe others peoples suck sucks a little less

 

[sb1]

Never really bought in to Reagor tbh.

this is the sign of a woebegone franchise

Well we were tied for the 2nd worst record in the league last season so if the shoe fits…

The reality is it’s gonna be rough for the next couple of years. We can’t fix everything in one off season/draft.

Us spoiled Pats fans are going to have to learn patience and that’ll be difficult, if not impossible, for some of the instant gratification posters we have on this forum.

It’s just the sign of being 3rd to choose from the waiver wire. Harder to get who you want picking at 20.

 

[palialka]

Meanwhile other teams are looking to sign veteran players like dalvin cook and Lawrence guy. Both would certainly improve our team.

Guy could offer something but we wanted to get younger obviously. If we really wanted him, we would have kept him.

Dalvin Cook is “cooked” and wouldn’t bring jack **** to this team.

Dial was drafted by this personnel office. Bolden was the previous GM's pick.

How did we get younger at DT? We don’t have any young developing players.
And we lost Barmore.

Nothing to lose by bringing Cook in and finding out. Plenty of RBs had bad years and bounced back, he’s young. Why wouldn’t we try? Are we afraid Jamichael Hardy wouldn’t have a spot?

Well, technically but there is no one in the front office that was there when bolden was picked.

Pretty much it. The new management team has made a decision to keep all of their developmental guys and get rid of the previous regime’s guys in the same boat.

Out with the old, in with the new…
