Patriots Player Departure Official 2021 Cutdown Day Thread

[Vatahala]

So what's the over/under on how many Pat's cuts make other team's 53 man roster, put me down for 4?

 

[Vataha]

The three position the Pats might look at on Waivers and for try-outs are (imho):
1) WR
2) CB)
3) LB

Whether or not they find people is another story.

Chris Hogan is available.

No official word of course, but there were reports he would not be ready. We’ll see tomorrow.

Patriots' N'Keal Harry activated off of injured reserve, receiver expected to face Buccaneers in Week 4

Harry sustained the injury during New England's second preseason game

So 4 weeks would out him at week 2.
Why keep him on the 53 if you can’t have him inactive for a game?
What is IR length this year?

I think Hogan is toast, honestly. But the Pats could kick the tires on him.. ¯\_(?)_/¯

 

[Love The Drake]

Jake Fromm for the PS?

If IRd he would miss 3 games.

 

[Ring 6]

If IRd he would miss 3 games.

That’s a good rule.

Cuts whom the Pats could bring to the PS:
Wilkerson -WR
Zuber - WR
Gant - S
Bryant - CB/S
Sherman -OL
Ferentz - OC/OG
Bill Murray - DT
Jacob Hollister - TE
Calvin Munson - LB
Rashad Berry TE/DE
Ben Mason - FB/TE
Shaquem Griffin - LB
Cre'Von LeBlanc - CB
Isaiah Coulter - WR
Keke Coutee - WR
Ryan Izzo - TE
Hjalte Froholdt - OL
Craig James - CB
Jahlani Tavai - LB
Chris Hogan - WR
Wayne Gallman - RB


I'm sure that @BaconGrundleCandy, @reamer or some of the other Draft guys can weigh in on guys they'd like to see here.

Ben Mason - Personally I'd be all over him. Not sure how Bill feels. I think they'll try to get him back but I'd go after him.

LeBlanc - always liked him as depth

Coutee could push or be a Gunna replacement on the ps if makes it. Interesting little project. I liked him a lot coming out. Hasn't worked out.

I like Bryant & Gant for us in the ps.

Anyone else wouldn't really move the needle for me.

In general I'd like them to add another OL/S but we'll see.

You have to be on the original 53 man roster before they can IR you and you can come back. That is why you see Hoyer getting cut and probably Nick Folk too. They are both vested veterans not subject to waivers.

so tomorrow BB will put Harry and maybe someone else in IR so they can return. Once they go on IR Hoyer and Folk will be resigned.

anfernee Jennings was out on IR today and he is out foe the season.

 

[Salsalife]

Wow - that's some revisionist history without any context. The loaded 2007 team:

Moss: 98 catches
Welker: 112 catches
Faulk: 47 catches
Watson: 36 catches
Various catches: Thomas, K. Brady, Morris, etc

But it's not that there simply wasn't enough offense to go around (nor did there need to be) - no, Stallworth just sucked.

His teammates and coaches both raved about how he accepted and played well within his reduced role given the firepower across the rest of the offense (which was pretty balanced with Faulk and Watson in addition to Stallworth given the massive impacts of Moss and Welker). He also had some clutch receptions during that undefeated run.

More fantasy football pure statistical baloney masquerading as football understanding.

I am speaking in terms of the worst Patriot WR pick EVER. My personal feeling is Nkeal Harry is hands down my choice.
1st round draft bust that has impacted this team's future. Donte statistically so far to me is a good comparision with Harry.

 

[bresna]

Hmm, maybe they make a run at Folk?

From a salary cap perspective, this would be a good thing, as any money Folk gets from the Lions offsets his guaranteed salary with the Pats.

 

[bresna]

I thought the IR rules changed last year because of Covid to allow all IR'ed players to be eligible to return? Why is everyone saying Jennings' season is over? Can't he return if he gets healthy?

 

[Mike the Brit]

LeBlanc - always liked him as depth

Sign me up for Mr LeBlanc.

Only players placed on IR after 4 PM today are eligible to return after 3 games from a stint on the IR. It’s just the rules in place to prevent teams from hoarding players on the IR.

 

[stcjones]

I only agree with the the top 3. Bolden can play on offense and has at times. Gunner is the next WR up (even if it’s by default / lack of actual WR depth) & even Langi was sporting the green dot in the NYG game. That is when I thought « this guy has a real shot ».

Hard to figure the Gunner situation. Great PR season last year and he is tough as nails but he has yet to step up and show he can be a reliable slot WR and had a horrible training camp…..he may still be cut if Pats can sign or trade for another really good WR which I feel we still need….as agholor is a huge ? right now…

I think the waiver wire commences from Midday ET today so we may hear about some selections this evening

Order of priority in my opinion:

1-Cb
2-Wr
3-Lb

Biggest priority for me is backup QB.

Hoyer is fine as a QB3 but as THE backup is not good.

God forbid something happens to Mac the season is ovah.

I'd trade for Nick Foles ASAP.

#1 pick Ron Sellers comes to mind
