Rumor?: Pats workout 3 D linemen

I haven't seen any mention of this, and wonder about the validity of the "rumor".

For those that go to the practices, or just have more info:
Has anyone heard anything about this?

Also, to those who are familiar with these players. Your thoughts?

I am a little familiar with Bennet when he was a Seahag (Edit: I thought Martellus bro). I thought he was decent.
Has he hit a wall?

Is there any upside to any of these, if true?




NFL Rumors: Patriots Work Out Three Defensive Linemen, One Linebacker

The Patriots work out free agents every week, and a very small percentage of them are actually signed.

Different Michael Bennett. The one who is famous plays for the Eagles.

They have Reiss' tweet,why are they calling it a rumor?

Azeem Victor ran a 4.72 at the combine, so he's totally got that trademark slowness Belichick covets in linebackers.

He was actually a draft binky of mine. So I'm still a fan of signing him fwiw.

4.76 is the average Combine time for ilb. Nothing wrong with a 4.72.

I sure hope they’re all in the third dimension. Then again our LB’s already play like they’re stuck in 2D.

Lawrence Taylor says hi.

I liked Michael Bennett from Ohio State during the 2015 draft process. I thought he provided excellent value at pick #180; I would've very strongly considered him as early as #166.

Unfortunately - and as was the case during the combine & his pro day - the man just cannot stay healthy (placed on IR in September of both 2016 & 2017). Too bad; with better luck, he might've been that disruptive 3-Tech DT we've been looking for.

But hey, could he really be that much worse than the Practice Squad-level performances we've thus far seen from Adam Butler and Keionta Davis?
