Patriots just cut him. Former Panthers second round pick. Don't know much about him other than the Patriots traded for him to be in their team. Maybe Carolina didn't think much of him.

Re: Will. Buffalo pick up Ealy?
But it didn't work out, as the 6-foot-4, 275-pound Ealy couldn't find a fit in the Patriots' scheme. The tipping point might have come early in the fourth quarter of Friday night's 30-28 preseason win over the Detroit Lions when Ealy lost containment on back-to-back plays.
"I just think it's one of those things that didn't work out or wasn't going to work out," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. "Nobody's fault. He [Ealy] worked hard. We worked hard. A lot of effort put in, but in the end, we didn't feel like this was going to work out. It gives him an opportunity about a week ahead of next week to hopefully create a better opportunity for himself. I think he deserved that. He did everything we asked him to do. It just didn't work out for either one of us like we hoped it would."
Ealy didn't enter the game until 12:57 was remaining in the third quarter, which was another ominous sign in his fight for a roster spot. His best success in the Patriots' scheme in the preseason came as an interior pass-rusher.

Re: Will. Buffalo pick up Ealy?
McDermott knows him. He knows the Patriots defensive calls. The Bills could use a DE back-up. This is one of those "let's bring him in" threads that makes sense.Comment

The word here in Carolina is he is very talented but dumb as a box of rocks and very seldom is motivated enough to play to his capability.Comment

The Bills didn't even file a waiver claim. But 7 other teams did.
