Player Signing Patriots Practice Squad Updates

[p8ryts]

You can't put much stock at all in the reports coming from the Twitter bots during practice. Pretty much have to base your judgments on what you see in the preseason games using your own eyes.

And always remember who the opponent is on those big plays.

The PS signings should be starting around now. Additionally, players hitting IR from the 53-man roster should be announced soon. Let's discuss both of those topics as they happen here.

We have the best practice squad in the league

Interesting - they have scouts who put thousands of hours into evaluating the league, "horizontally and vertically," and end up with essentially all their own players.

A bird in hand is worth two in the bush. They have tested these folks. Hence end up having same set of folks.

This is the same organization of scouts who originally recommended the players who stuck.

Teams are stashing veterans so less unknown talent is available.

Every team has their Ray's, Humphrey's so why not stick with what you know?

This ****ing signing is a complete ****ing waste of Everything.

Bill Murray is the new James Ferentz.

Except we're also stuck with the old James Ferentz...

Yes, he's been promoted, as we will see shortly.

Signing Bill Murray is a Joke. I'll be here all week.

 

[captain stone]

Another proven non-performer for whom Bill has an irrational hard-on, same as Thanksdad... Face it Bill, those two ****ing stiffs simply aren't NFL talent; let them go, once and for all.

A never-will-be, not worth the bother.

Captain there's 16 practice squad spots. They got plenty of talent on there.

IMO you need to mix the right influencers with these talented guys.

Maybe a player like Ray or McGrone will be better off if some of the work ethic of players like Murray and Langi rubbed off on them.

I'm not saying this is the case, but there are so many spots now that I think Bill is using this type of strategy.

 

[captain stone]

I would've re-signed Dejarlais & Myboy Sherman instead of Thanksdad & the Comedian... Langi & Pharms won't be helping us anytime in the future either...

 

[captain stone]

Good to see these players back.

12/16 ain't bad I suppose...

"Don't be sad...cause 12 out of 16 ain't bad".

A never-will-be, not worth the bother.

I saw couple of sacks or pretty good tackles from pharms during preseason . Not that bad a player.

I am a bit surprised that hambright and Elliot are missing .

Except we're also stuck with the old James Ferentz...

When I watched him fumble a snap I thought of you, cap'n ...

 

[Hyped]

Bill Murray is the new James Ferentz.

"The new Stephen Neal".....ftfy!!!

To be fair, they had less than 24 hours to pull their initial practice squad together. "End up" is a bit premature. That said, the primary purpose of the squad is for practice, as the name implies. Only a couple will be called up, and even then, only in the case of injury or flat-out failure by someone on the 53. For now, this team desperately needs the practice to get their act together for Miami. Having guys around who know the routine and the terminology will help the starters get the most out of the limited practice time. I'm sure we'll see a couple prospects cycle in before long - hopefully a journeyman offensive lineman who happens to be adept at the wide zone scheme.

Not Chicago and not the Jets.
