Oats?



Actually, along with Pars, it is one of my favorite typos.

That's my fat fingers

 

[captain stone]

Good. I hope they sign him.

After this weekend, Mister Mumpsferd be like Gone 'n **** for good now.

Patriots waived DT - Travis Shaw.

They now have 1 open roster spot on the 90 man roster.
Lorenz Metz is exempted from the 90 man total due to his Euro Player exemption

EDIT: I couldn't find the other thread that had Pats roster discussions..

Hoping this means they are getting closer to signing a certain draft pick.

 

[Sfpat]

He already counts on the roster

While tommy is being snarky, there has been a thread open on the subject of the roster open since April.

Thread 'Base Case - First 2026 53-Man Roster'

ADDED Gilliam and took out the #6 WR
ADDED Muma as Player 54

We'll see who is replaced in the next 4 months. I also have all the draftees making the 53. This seems to be Vrabel's style.

OFFENSE (24)
QB (3) Maye, Divito, Morton
WR (5) Brown, Doubs, Hollins, Williams, Boutte
RB (3) Stevenson, Henderson, Miller
FB (1) Gilliam

All of the "action" since the draft revolves around the two inevitable signings of AJ Brown and Jacas.

We have had hundreds of posts discussing many other possible signings, but as was the case last year, it seems that we will be disappointed.

I see few, if any, additions before the week of the "final" cut to 53. Since we are so low in the list for claims, perhaps we will trade a 6th or two for a player or players just before the final cut. Of course, it also possible that we trade away a player or two within a week of the final cut.

As an aside, we did claim and sign three players after the 2025 draft: Woods, DiVito and Gregory. We also signed Durden to the PS and then quickly moved him to the roster.

 

[Uptown]

Great. Now we can finally sign Cassius Marsh out of retirement to augment our pass rush to an elite level…

 

[DaBruinz]

Hoping this means they are getting closer to signing a certain draft pick.

Unsigned draft picks automatically count against the 90-man roster. Been that way since 2011, if I remember correctly.

Talking about individual players wasn't the point. Noting the transaction for discussion was.

Patriots re-sign Isaiah Iton - DT

Iton was a Vrabel signing last year that ended up on the IR in Mid-August. He was an ERFA that the Patriots Non-Tendered.
