TheVillain112 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 While it seems like a very minor player/deal, I think it's a good signing for the Patriots. Flowers is good special teams player and has some speed to him. I always liked him coming off the bench and while he wasn't great, he has some potential that BB might be able to get out of him...

cddolphin Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 A lot of writers had been predicting more mini-trades like this since there is no longer that early cutdown period. Teams potentially trying to bypass the waiver system for roster-bubble players (not sure if that applies to Flowers though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was probably going to be the last LB that made the 53 if Burfict was suspended. If Burfict doesn't, he was probably going to get cut, because of the emergence of Jordan Evans and Carl Lawson (LB\DE)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
