ChazStandard 1,200 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 This used to be a fixture in the old forum - and I couldn't see one up yet. Essentially this is a thread for non-Patriots NFL news, gossip etc. Interesting FAs that might fill a need here, or surprise cuts. You get the idea. Case in point - Devin Taylor (DE) just cut by the Giants, he had some decent years in Detroit, might be worth a look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
atmer 39 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 T.J. Ward has just been released by the Broncos. That was unexpected, at least to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had the impression he's an OK rotational pass rusher. Now that Brooks is off the market, I'd like the Pats to take a shot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dhunt2402 130 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 We've traded for Johnson Bademosi. A lot of speculation on him as a potential ST addition in the last few days, seems like a consensus good move Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And the Broncos get just a tiny bit less obnoxious. A tiny, tiny bit. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But I doubt it - they're both so good. It's probably just to cover the loss of Coleman and Jones. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PatriotsWin! 250 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 The Patriots are trading QB Jacoby Brissett to the Colts for WR Phillip Dorsett, league source tells ESPN. -not sure if true or not, just tweeted by Yates Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would have to think Brissett is worth more than that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dhunt2402 130 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Shilique Calhoun released by the Raiders. Wouldn't be surprised if he went after him on waivers Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good, Gronk's knee is all the safer for not having to play him every year. Playing Ward infuriated me, he has zero tackle technique, and just dives bomb knees. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChazStandard 1,200 Posted September 3, 2017 Author Share Posted September 3, 2017 Akeem Ayers was cut, might be someone they are interested in. Made some good plays in 2014 - including a SB winning tackle of Lynch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iothar 53 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 (edited) What about Dial who just got cut from San Fran. Perfect 3-4 fit everyone is saying. Would be interesting for some 4-3 with Flowers-Branch-Dial-Marsh/Wise JR. With backups in Guy-Valentine-Brown-Butler to rotate in. Feels like a lot of DTs though... Hopefully would free up Linebackers to blitz more with such a formidable defense against the run. Edited September 3, 2017 by iothar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
