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.

      I honestly don’t think he ever will change.  He couldn’t punch his way out of this wet paper bag he created with scissors in his hands.  I think back to the early takes on Jimmy Haslem, the Browns owner.  For that first few years, he couldn’t get out of his own way.  Same poo.  The fans were miserable and were worried he was exactly who David Tepper is now…  and then Haslem took a step back.  He hired football guys and let them make the decisions.  And something clicked…  now, they’ve done some really dumbass stuff since, but they started drafting some gems, developing them, and even went to the playoffs a few years.  Led by Baker, they came damn close for beating the Chiefs in the playoffs.  But I could never see Tepper doing any of that.  He is so damn egotistical and stubborn.  Haslem wasn’t pulling up to restaurants and demanding people change critical signs of him.  Haslem wasn’t throwing drinks on the poors heckling him.  Haslem wasn’t getting in broadcasts with his poo eating grin and calling fans basement dwellers.  He was willing to take a step back and learn.  At minimum, Tepper should’ve been at that stage two or three years in.  And then he forces the Bryce pick.  And then he makes us see it through for a minimum of three years.  It’s clear he still thinks he knows more than anyone else…  and for that reason, this will not turn around under Tepper.  Our only hope is he sells, and he won’t.  He would move the team before he had to sell it just to stick it to this fanbase for telling him about himself.  He’s a fuging douche.  And sadly, because all of the decisions have been and will be so bad from too top to bottom, we won’t ever even accidentally back into the playoffs because we will never have the talent or coaching.  It is fuging groundhogs day for misery as a Panthers fan.

      We’ve been having a bad day since 2018.  It’s time to bring the paper bags out.
