Patriots Player Departure RB Tyler Gaffney released

[Luxusdk]

Perhaps Brown passed a physical and Gaffney didn't.

So, for now, we have Lewis, Brown, Bolden, White and Develin.

I'm sure that some folks think that we can simply draft a RB in the 4th and 6th and dump a couple of these.

More like a 7 and UDFA but yes..

Shaughnessy sobbed.

Of course. Makes perfect sense. I knew this would happen.

 

[fnordcircle]

Re-signed! (did i do this right)

 

[oldrover]

Re-signed! (did i do this right)

That's funny. But I'm still gonna have to put you on ignore.

I WILL IGNORE YOU FIRST

Rats. I got nothing.

One more time and I think he has to legally change his last name to Ventrone.

We've added Brown, Blount and Gaffney. We should be set except for late round draft choices.

The title of the thread should be changed.

All the more reason to land a stud.

 

[jefmblrd]

I'd love to see if Gaffney can play, so I'm glad they brought him back.

 

[ForThoseAboutToRock]

Of course. Makes perfect sense. I knew this would happen.

Belichick's a genius, playing chess while all the others play checkers ... something about the shadow roster... Dion Lewis ... etc.

 

[Wheelman]

Can someone explain the cut and re-sign?

 

[mgteich]

SPECULATION
The new contract will probably be worth $20K less the last one. Also, it will likely have an injury clause.

 

[jah]

I'm pretty sure even late round rookie contracts become non-negligible money in late years, which is why I think I saw Chris Jones mentioned a couple times as a potential cap cut despite being a 6th rounder like Gaffney. So this probably gives him a contract more in like with the "UDFA/offseason only" type player he's turned out to be so far.

Change of heart, BB is a softy.
