For the first time in 30 years I’m reading through the released players and I don’t think I recognize a single name. Like, no hype, interest, news from camp about any of them. This roster has fallen this far now. It’s embarrassing. |

SEC OC that played against great competition and played really well in school. perhaps he is a PS player and spends the season improving with an eye to a potential Andrews replacement. |

I'll take a wild guess that Eliot Wolf signs three newly available players really soon. Three may be low and three may be high. To do this, the front office would have to get down to 50 players. Veterans will be cut out of their $10 million dollar contracts, but they'll turn around and sign on Wednesday for $2 million a year. Rookies with serious potential go on the shelf. Second and third year guys who can play now get caught in a numbers game and go on the racks. 1100 guys have to go. Big 32 family yard sale! Wes Welker may not have been waivered like this, but Miami was a cheapskate and they left the door open for the Patriots to nab him. Then Welker racked up 120 receptions per year for year after year. Guys are out there.
The Pats are just loaded with cash compared to any other NFL team. If they see a yard sale price they're buying.

We should have used that cash to get quality players long before this. So now we’re going to get cheap castoffs. Collaboration may just be a tool to spread the blame in event of failure. If it works I expect I and me to be sprinkled in many conversations.
Don’t worry about what people say that you wouldn’t take advice from anyway may not work.

So far I would say all the cuts by all the teams look the same. I got excited that Lamar Jackson and AJ Green got cut as well as Andre Carter, but while the names looked like bargains, the players weren't quite as impressive (  ) I suspect lots of teams are talking about trades on their more experienced potential cuts and the better 'prospects' caught in numbers games. Would not be surprised if some teams were looking at Pats DBs for example as that is the one area of the roster that has depth. They announced Bledsoe and Wilcox today ... meh.
EDIT: Zappe, Watts, Jennings gone. Still no surprises

I'm not ruling out Zappe returning to the team just yet.....he was waived, so if no teams claim him (which I suspect will be the case), then he'll go to the practice squad correct? So this might just be the team finding a way to keep 4 QBs without it hurting their 53 man roster. Especially with Jacoby's injury, I can understand why they would want to do this. Zappe sucks, but he's an option you could throw to the wolves if the o-line isn't ready to protect Drake Maye.

I'm surprised they released Kevin Harris, but I do like Hasty so if this means they can keep a player at another position who deserves it, I think its worth it. I'm hoping Harris gets to the PS though.

I'm hoping Harris gets to the PS though. mildly surprised as well... but yes id imagine hed be back to the PS if he wants to stay here... also wouldnt be surprised if they are leaving that roster spot open to claim someone from another team tomorrow, be it an RB or another position, as they are pretty sure they could easily get him back to the PS. so while i thought he might make the 53, i shouldve realized that the most likely scenario would be that they would cut him and bring him back to the PS, as they know from previous times of doing it, they are likely to be able to cut him and get him back to the PS. roster manipulation... i love this time of year  |

So how does the PS mechanism work regarding getting waived? Cause BB did the same thing with Zappe last year and he went to the PS after not getting claimed. I'm dumb so I literally have no idea lol. I thought there was a difference between getting 'waived' and getting just flat-out 'cut/released'. |

Bears fans were saying he was having a good preseason. |

If it was, then you would need to keep Zappe since a veteran QB on the active roster. Be interesting to see where he ends up. |

I thought there was a difference between getting 'waived' and getting just flat-out 'cut/released'. he chose to sign back with the patriots PS after being waived, and going unclaimed. you are waived if you are a player with less than 4 years of vested service. you get waived, then every other team has a chance to claim your contract in the next 24 hours. if they do, you go to their 53 man roster. if you dont get claimed in that 24 hour period, then your old contract is now gone and you are free to sign with any team (including the team that just waived you) to either their 53 man roster or their PS. if you are a veteran with more than 4 years of service in the league, you are released and free to sign immediately with any team to their 53 or PS. the lone exception when it comes to veterans, is after the trade deadline each season. after the trade deadline each season, whether you are a vested veteran (4yrs or more of nfl service) or not, you are subject to waivers any time you are cut. the only time a player "reverts" to anything, is if you are waived with an injury designation.... in that scenario, if you dont get claimed in 24 hrs, you revert back to that teams IR. that covers everything... other than if you are waived or released with an injury settlement... i can get into that too if you want me too |

Zappe would be wise to look around and try to hook on with a team using the Shanahan style offense. the better versed he is, the better his chances of sticking as a back up somewhere.
he is spinning his wheels here, with Maye clearly the long term plan and Milton a potential lotto pick type player
Brissett can probably stay with the team as long as he wishes with this staff. he would revert back to his more desirable role as backup, at a salary indicative of such
there really is a limited path for Zappe to even get snaps
