Brissett sucks. If you want a camp arm, fine. Other than that, pass.

No way they cut Lewis, who is not only a good RB (although an injury concern) but also their primary kick returner. He may even field punts now that Jones is hurt. I think they keep Gillislee, Burkhead, Lewis, White and Develin (Fullback). They then may keep one of Bolden or Foster, or maybe cut both. I think they keep Bolden because of his ST ability and cut Foster. Foster is a guy worth picking up as a 3rd down-type back. He isn't that big, but is shifty and catches the ball well.
Beyond that, the only other guys I think are possible are WR Carr and TE J. Hollister, but both are probably more PS-types at this point. I don't think they were ever thinking of cuttting Brissett, I think they like him and Garapollo is in the last year of his contract. They could cut OT Connor McDermott, but I think he makes it. He may have some potential as a developmental OT.
If they Cut Brisset, I'd be all over that like a fat kid on a cookie

Austin Carr's potential? Is that what you are talking about? The Patriot roster is no more rife with talent than anyone else's. They just tend to make better coaching decisions on which players to keep. How's Jamie Collins doing in Cleveland?
While Bill Belichick has a spotty drafting record. He's notably better at personnel decisions after he's had a player to evaluate up close in camp. He gets a better chance to see their work ethic, level of dedication and football acumen up close.
Less potential than Matt Cassell had. And he was the primary QB of an 11-5 season for Belichick. I think you have to stop looking at Belichick's players like you would those on other teams. He has a way of getting things outta chumps that others can't.
I don't often agree with Goobylal, but he's spot on with this point imho.
Pats cut Gronk.
GO GET HIM!!!!!!!
Oh wait, it was Glenn. Never mind.
Been there. Done that.
Patriots wanted their roster spot back. They figured it was enough time passed having paid homage to big Gronk by having little Gronk around.

You want a WR?
Saints’ Willie Snead suspended first three games
So this doesn't get lost in another thread and this is Pats-centric in thoughts to the Bills and his name was mentioned in the thread...
Pats trade Brissett to Colts for Phillip Dorsett.
Hope Dorsett doesn't get his stuff together with Brady throwing him the ball.
why do teams keep trading with NE....? the Colts are terrible.....stupid trade
Here you go for the person who wanted Austin Carr.
Patriots make their moves to 53

Every year I question something BB does, and every year I’m reminded why I do what I do and he does what he does for a living.

Carr was claimed by New Orleans.
Looks like the Bills claimed OT Connor McDermott from NE.

DJ Foster made the practice squad.... and we have Mike Tolbert as our pass catching backup ...?
