O'Callaghan signed

The Patriots announced the signing of offensive tackle Ryan O'Callaghan, a fifth-round pick out of California.

He is the fourth of the team's 10 draft choices to sign, following Garrett Mills (fourth round), Dan Stevenson (sixth round) and Willie Andrews (seventh round).

The offseason player limit is 80.

The Pats currently have 93 players.

6 draft picks are un-signed, brining that total down to 87.

The team has 9 NFLE exemptions (expire on first cut-down to 75).

Therefore, the Pats roster is at 78 players, meaning they'll have to cut 4 players to sign 4 of their remaining 6 rookies.

Great news. Working our way up the ladder towards the higher picks. Then we can address the Branch and (hopefully) Law situations.

See! I'm always right. There's never anything to worry about.

Don't tell SoonerPatriot. He might get upset again that the Patriots aren't signing their draft picks....
