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. for a team that wants to be run heavy, they will need more than 3 RB's. I thought both Harris and Hasty showed enough to warrant spots I would think another vet will be brought in over the next day or three

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. Well, I suspect this means that Brissett's injury is not too serious. 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 hope he gets a good chance with another team. I don't see him as a starter, but I don't believe he and Mac were as bad as they appeared for us last season. Pretty hard to play QB without both an OL and any good WRs. After Bourne went down we had exactly one WR worth a damned and he was a rookie.

Otherwise everything else makes sense its either about roster maniuplation (99% sure they can get him back to the PS as he has told them hed sign back if not claimed) or they already know of some other RB(s) that are going to be released, that they plan on claiming tomorrow. my guess, is that hes back on the PS tomorrow if he goes unclaimed, whether they claim another RB tomorrow or not.

Last year the Patriots went down to two RB's, Rhamondre and Zeke, then brought these guys back. I suspect they'll do the same thing this year. RB's salaries are shrinking, there's too many good RB's in the league and not enough jobs. It's easy to slide them on the PS.

It's easy to slide them on the PS. yup agreed. its the position, most likely, with the most useable decent players in the league. exactly. what i was getting at as part of roster manipulation.

They drafted a punter and a kicker, the punter is a stud and the kicker isn't. Sounds like pretty good draft odds to me...

If they get a 7th round pick for him, then it is not a total loss.

What a wasted draft pick this ended up being last year…….. PSA: replacing X with twitter in the URL will enable us to view posts without clicking on the link.

That's why there should be an unwritten rule stating that no one shall draft a kicker before the 6th round.

Just to lighten the mood while we await cuts. I'd fall off of my chair if this happened lol But seriously, I hope he gets a fresh start somewhere else…and preferably not behind Mac.

They drafted the punter in the 6th round, a much more acceptable round to be picking a kicker/punter. They TRADED UP for Ryland......Bill was looking for a long-term answer at kicker when he should've been using that pick on a receiver or lineman. Its so much easier to find a good kicker undrafted or late round than a good receiver or tackle. We don't need to defend Bill on this one guys. This was pretty horrible.

This was pretty horrible. nothing in the way of anything at OT after that pick (at least to this point unless of course they thought andrew voorhees could play either tackle spot) but some WRs worth the pick... wicks, nacua, iosivas, hutchinson
