WR T.J. Moe, six others released

[Palm Beach Pats Fan]

This will come as a shock and disappointment to at least 2-3 Patriots fans.

no shock/awe,

but I did lose a (mild) binkie

He seemed very Edelman-like

 

[strngplyr]

This is going to handicap us pretty heavily:

Nick Underhill ?@Nick_Underhill 2m
Moe >> RT @patscap: His dead money hit is 5,334. His release accelerates $2,668 - the 2015 proration of his signing bonus into 2014

 

[Sciz]

Supposedly the structure of his Achilles is fine but the strength is still lacking. To be brutally honest, Moe isn't a guy who can lose any speed and still be effective.

Re: No mo Moe?

Nothing could be farther from the truth! BB is simply clearing room so that he can draft Michael Campanaro, he needs to stay within the league quota for short, white receivers

Campanaro would be an excellent draft selection in my opinion. Smart, excellent route runner, good hands. I don't usually jump on the next Welker train but this kid has the tools.

WR T.J. Moe released

Tweets coming in TJ Moe has been released.

Well that should put the Amendola rumors to sleep were aren't going to cut two "next Wes Welker" in a week.

Or maybe we are, maybe Bill's hatred for Welker has grown so much he is going to cut every receiver that even resembles Welker....

I've seen quite a bit of Campanaro (both of my sons are recent Wake Forest grads). He's a pretty good football player.

Wake Forest's Campanaro says he turned heads at NFL combine - NFL.com

 

[Brady6]

Or a sign that the Edelman negotiations are progressing amicably.

Nope he is gone too. Bill is suffering from PTSD ever since Welker laid out Talib in the worst play he has seen. All Welker look a likes are gone, they're trading Amendola to the Texans for any receiver that refuses to go across the middle.

I've seen quite a bot of Campanaro (both of my sons are recent Wake Forest grads). He's a pretty good football player.

Wake Forest's Campanaro says he turned heads at NFL combine - NFL.com

And a match for Edelman athletically (a little behind in 3-cone and short shuttle being the only difference)

 

[mgteich]

Belichick didn't think that he was worth having on the 90 man squad. It is that simple.

I'm sure that Beliichick will give us our 2014 UDFA WR binky.

 

[fnordcircle]

Shocked that we didn't trade him for a 2nd rounder.

Don't teams realize that merely being on our roster makes a player worth a 3rd rounder minimum?

Definitely a 3rd rounder he didn't play in the preseason

Why does everything have to mean more than it does?
Moe got cut, It has no real impact on anyone else. He wasn't exactly in the plans anyway.

Andy, Andy,Andy
You missed the posts informing us peons unable to assess great talents that Moe was the go to guy for the slot in 2014
Try to keep up!

Pissah worry not, this just means that Sam McGuffie is the NEXT Wes Welker…

Sam McGuffie | Rice, WR : 2013 NFL Draft Scout Player Profile

Did you see his 3-Cone time, that screams 125 receptions a season…

 

[Brady6]

Realistically we have many receivers on this roster right now competing for a job and with UFA and the draft still to come; I am not surprised to see them trimming the herd.

- Aaron Dobson
- Josh Boyce
- Danny Amendola
- Matthew Slater
- Kenbrell Thompkins
- Mark Harrison
- Reggie Dunn
- Sam McGuffie
- Greg Orton

Edelman and Collie are UFAs that could return.

 

[crew1954]

Re: No mo Moe?

I think Edelman demanded no competition as part of his negotiation. He's tired of short, injured white guys. Amendola is next.

Didn't Welker demand that last year?

 

[Gronkandez]

Sorry if this has already been said but...NOOO why is Belichick always getting rid of Brady's weapon?? This guy was going to breakout. Look at his combine numbers.

 

[captain stone]

So TJ Hey Moe & his $5K cap hit is waived, yet Wilfork, Soap & Kelly are still here.

Yeah, about that...

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

It's brutal down there in Foxboro! More carnage!

Glen Farley @GFarley_ent
The #Patriots have released DL Cory Grissom, RB Sam McGuffie, WR T.J. Moe and LB Taylor Reed.

Make it stop!!!!!

No idea why Sopoaga is still around but there's nothing surprising about Wilfork and Kelly (also known as the best two defensive tackles on the roster) still being here.
