[FortressX]

Will the Pats have any interest in their former draft choice ?

He's still in the league? Holy ****.

He's still in the league? Holy ****.[

He's the blocking beast who got away

 

[Clonamery]

Where’s the yawning emoji?

 

[Brick27]

Been one of the better blocking TEs. Not much to offer beyond that.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

I didn’t know even there was a player in this league named Lee Smith

 

[FortressX]

He had some tough competition back in T.C. with the Pats.

Smith entered his first training camp facing stiff competition for a roster spot. He competed with Alge Crumpler, Rob Gronkowski, Aaron Hernandez, and Carson Butler.

Guy is a freak ... pitched for the Red Sox in 1988.


Wrong Lee ....

 

[Biffins]

Sign the bea..... who’s he?

 

[jboston19]

I remember him. He and another rookie TE had solid training camps and the Pats tried to sneak them to the practice squad. Both got claimed. I think Smith went to Buffalo. Can’t remember the other guy.

We have enough capable Offensive Linemen no thanks... no more Dwayne Allen please. Need a TE that can actually get out of his own way.

 

[PatsFan2]

Also the Raiders had a Solid Draft getting TE Foster Moreau and WR Hunter Renfrow in the Fourth great values there.

Making room for Kyle Rudolph?

Not with that 8Mill cap.

 

[SBLIII]

Not with that 8Mill cap.

we would have to negotiate with him to get that down

 

[Triumph]

Not with that 8Mill cap.

Rudolph is 30 in November.

A 3 year extension lowering this seasons cap hit would not be unheard of. The final year could be a dead year like many teams do including the Pat's.

 

[BelichicksHoodie]

This guy is horrible. Hard pass.

 

[Froob]

Will Yeatman lmao

Didn't he become a full time linemen for the Dolphins?
