Both signed to the practice squad (per black & blue review).Still don't understand why they didn't land here, but good for them. Hope it works out....(even if Miami is a shipwreck right now).

because Brandon Williams was overrated by fans and Marcus Lucas didn't have a position. He was big and could catch well, but couldn't do all the things either WR or TE asked of him. I don't expect to ever hear much about these 2 ever again. Lucas has more of a chance to be somebody than Williams.

It's a nice luxury to have to release players that others teams value, really speaks to our depth and the difficult choices the FO has to make.  It like having Antonio, Julio and AJ on the same FF team and only being able to start two.  Ok, Ok, not that great, but almost! :)

This is so true overall talent level has increased the last couple years. But with that being said. If we released Brockel I'm dam near positive he wouldn't be picked up by anyone in the NFL. Maybe CFL nah who am I kidding he'd be at auto bell before the months out.

The Patriots would pick him up and he'd be a Pro-Bowler.

Meanwhile, at the other end of the roster management spectrum...

Saints trade Akiem Hicks to Patriots for Michael Hoomanawanui

 

The Saints are desperate for cap space and will save about $600,000 through this trade because Hicks costs more than Hoomananui: Hicks has a base salary of $1,529,500 this season, while Hoomanawanui has a base salary of $800,000. That means the Saints will pay Hoomanawanui $658,000 for the rest of the season and the Patriots will pay Hicks $1,258,778 for the rest of the season. Both Hicks and Hoomanawanui are free agents after this season.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
