Why would Pats sign a 'new' QB to PS?

[cstjohn17]

Who knows maybe Brady was taking HGH... I suspect that they won't have 4 QBs on the roster for long, maybe Guit.'s days are numbered.

Leaving out veteran acquisitions the 2007 draft has reaped very little fruit... but we did get Randy Moss.

I was thinking the same thing. Today playing the role of J.P. Losman will be....

Will he be playing the role with a giant mirror that makes him look like Losman despite throwing lefthanded? Will they put him on roller skates to make a non-elusive player appear as mobile as Losman?

Last I saw, David Greene was exonerated from cheating on a test, despite Matt Damon's best attempt to smear him because he is Jewish. But he was a great quarterback... did he get into Harvard?

(Is this reference too obscure?)

I loved that flick. Filmed next door in Conkid MA.

 

[5 Rings for Brady!!]

My guess is that they just want to try him out, see how he looks, due diligence, etc... Hope Oldenburg will be re-signed later on. Too bad for him.

I think Oldenburg is not going to be re-signed by the Pats. IMO, he is gone.

Elgin is the one that got away...

 

[5 Rings for Brady!!]

I really think Cassel's days are numbered here. He is not really flashing that sign of improvement like Brady did, and the Pats probably are coming up with a plan B.

Whether Greene ends up being part of plan B or not, he is clearly getting a look.

Either that or BB is so pleased with Gutierrez he is planning to feature Cassel in some potential blow outs and given the way the Schaub trade has worked out he figures he can recoup close to that end of the first he recently lost by flipping Cassel. QB's who can just reasonably function are at a premium these days in case nobody has noticed...

Or he just wanted another arm on the PS where there has been none for some time now.

80% probability esp if you assume Cassie DID injure his finger and BB wants a scrambler to emulate Loserman as speculated previously.

He's only on the Practice Squad. And that makes sense to me.

(Now if someone could explain why, if the purpose of the practice squad is to provide players for practice, we should tie up TWO slots with punters last season -- neither of whom makes the team when the punter on the roster is cut ...)

As for your first sentence. That's ALL we need!

Cassel was throwing on the side lines Sunday night and he didn't look like he was hurting.

 

[JDP111]

Cassel is fine. Stop with all the conjecture about him being in the dog house. Why not sign Green and see how he looks? Throw it against the wall, maybe it'll stick.

Greene has Super Bowl experience!

 

[mojocaster.com]

Did Greene play at all with the Bills? Something tells me they may not be happy with Cassell. Even though it doesn't mean much, Gutuierrez is the one who took the kneel downs in the first two games. Maybe they feel Cassel has butterfingers.

Greene was a good college QB, that's all I know about him.

they said during the game vs the Chargers that Cassell had a hurt finger...

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

Greene was more of a "manage the game" type QB at Georgia than anything else. He does not posses a great size, arm, or speed. He is one of theose "high character" type guys, and very smart. My guess is solely a practice player.

Trade him to the Jets. They are always looking for "high character" guys with
lots of intangibles. In fact, they would rather have them than a winner.

Yeah, before we toss out Cassel for Greene, take a gander at Greene's stat line vs. GB in the preseason. Yiiikes.

I do not think they wanted Elgin back...Oldenburg might be back in a few weeks..Funny..Hthe other lineman picked, Hilliard?? nowhere to be found..
