I am not sure what this info is for. It has little if anything to do with cut down.
 
Interesting second group (players already waived by Pats who are practice squad eligible). They can't be claimed by other teams so the Pats have a equal chance at them - better than equal as the player doesn't have to learn a new system - and a few of these guys I wouldn't mind seeing on the pc. We could have Stork be our backup center without taking space on the 53, or we could give Easley a second shot. Some players change and 'get it' when faced with reality of working a day job for the rest of their lives.

Actually it does. If 2 players are equal and 1 is not PS eligible and 1 is PS eligible the Pats can keep 1 on the 53 and try to slide the other to the PS.
 
Pats' Cuts

Shocker.

Cre'Von LeBlanc. I thought he'd stick. Hope he makes it to the PS tomorrow.

Wow.

They HAVE to be trying the end of roster/PS machinations.

Good luck with that.

I bet my mortgage he's a Bill by sundown. (kidding, but not really)

Yeah, I don't think he'll clear. He had versatility and was good at what he did when he played. I'm pretty surprised.
 
We all know they'll need to release some young promising players. It's a problem that very few teams have.
 
I haven't seen him named as a cut consideration, but I'm wondering if Nate Ebner might be getting a visit from the Turk later today.

I hope not, but something has to give on special teams between Nate, King, KGH, Bolden and Grissom. At least one of those guys is likely gone. Slater should be safe. I think.

With the small number of LBs projected to be kept you might think KGH has a chance to stick because he might be able to also contribute as a LB and a 5th safety and the more you can do.....

I'll guess that King and Grissom get whacked and we keep the rest.

LeBlanc, JJones and DRoberts were all pretty much neck and neck from my pov. Jones offers STs and Roberts has a year of IR experience. I'm hoping for 1 to make the 53 and the other 2 to the PS

I could see at least 1 of them gone. I'd rather cut 1 of these guys than Anthony Johnson from what I've seen.

Not a Pats player, but the Colts just cut Ridley. Didn't he just sign the other day?
