Pats bring in two vets for visits

[BadMoFo]

No draft picks, no problem.

LB Dan Skuta


OL Brandon Fusco

 

[Kontradiction]

Skuta was actually low key decent last season. I wouldn't mind picking him up for depth.

 

[PatsBoy12]

OL always interests me. Anyone know anything about this Fusco guy?

 

[long distance]

From our draft board..



The closest measurables from this year's draft - Bolles and Dawkins.
Drafting in FA continues?

BTW - his 3-cone (7.29) would be best @Combine this year (ex aequo w Bolles) and his SS (4.43) best of all..

Red flag - concussion history (two times in protocol in 2016, missed 2 games)

Our old friend Box_O_Rocks was very high on him pre-draft.

He is greatly missed

Did he pass away? He's not at PP anymore either from what I can tell.

Haven't seen him since the final "Persons of Interest" episode...

I always wondered what happened to him too. I miss his cats.

I know that he left here due to a Personality conflict with one of the mods.. Don't know why he left Patriots Planet.

Really? I've missed him, and given that he had health issues and simultaneously dropped off of both sites, I'd feared the worst.

I logged onto PP and checked. His last post was basically saying hi to everyone back in 2011 and apologizing for being gone, but saying that he'd be back soon because "life happens". Then, he logged in in August of 2012 and never logged in again. I think he's gone. If he is, that's a shame. I always appreciated his takes. Especially with regard to the draft.

But having played in Jax, Cinn and SF, it may take a while to wash the stink off of him..................

 

[Joker]

He's a mean moto Skuta...

Shout out to the Hollywood Argyles and their seminal hit, Alley Oop...

This is the best shape I have ever seen the Patriots heading into the draft. Despite the dearth of picks they can easily fill the remaining needs on this team over the next few months.LB/DE, OL, and maybe a #3 TE with potential us about all I can see.

I'm almost certainly that while not coming right out and saying it, Ian strongly hinted that he had passed. That was a good few years ago, if I'm not mistaken.

I get the feeling BB could ( and probably would like to) trade all the remaining picks for higher picks next year, grab some cheesesteaks or Fogo de Chao say "F it" and head back to Foxboro, and after all the moves, we'd still think they won the off season...not to mention that piece of hardware in February...

Trade Butler for 32
Trade 32 and a third rounder for Sherman

Butler at 3.9 mil, a first rounder and a 3rd rounder for a more expensive **** Sherman? That seems like a lot to give up for not that much of a gain. Not to mention the cost at CB with him and Gilmore.
