Bruce Ellington Signed to 1 Year Deal

[IcyPatriot]

Lots of hammy issues so he signs here and becomes a TB12 facility disciple ...

Could do it .... worth a shot if you're Bruce.

Is this the year we finally start training camp with Name tags?

 

[captain insano]

What I keep telling myself to stay relatively sane is that if Gordon comes back, he’s one of the top two or three most physically gifted wide receivers in the league and has already built some rapport with Brady. I’d rather have a sober him than AB or ODB.

I tell myself. the draft is coming. and I hope for a trade for a WR. it's not Sept yet. still plenty of time for them to improve the team.

 

[Wheelman]

I was liking this signing until I saw the hammy history.

Good kid from the local area. They brought his brother (Andre) in last year for a tryout and he’s related to Derek Rivers (cousins IIRC).

Brother played for Clemson - yikes!

So Maurice Hurst and Duke Ellington are the Pats new WR's.

Yup. The Pats are taking the A train.

Might as well bring back Aaron Dropson and Josh Boyce. Brady gotta be shaking his head.

More like Z Train I don't think any of those guys expected to be signed this early. These moves have desperation written all over them.

 

[Ochmed Jones]

Trainers are going to have their hands full trying to keep this guy stretched out and healthy. Those hamstrings are wound really tight and they pop at a moments notice.

For all those who like renfrow, just remember Ellington is 25 pounds heavier and much faster than renfrow. (A future walking concussion)

No Brady gets it.

The Duke is in da house!

Hidey hidey ho, hidey hidey hey!

 

[YOUGOTMOSSED]

Hidey hidey ho, hidey hidey hey!

I think that's Cab Calloway . . .

 

[Bonkowski]

Another Gamecock - played with Gilmore. Was a terrific basketball player at Carolina too. 5’9” but 200 lbs. Going to get a chance in a far better offense than he has ever played in.

Are you a Gamecock also? I am class of 2001.

 

[bormio]

Are you a Gamecock also? I am class of 2001.

No, but I moved to South Carolina in 1987 and hate all things orange!!

The only thing you managed here is to show once again that most of the measurements mean jackshit. If that was your goal then congrats..
