Trimming the New England Patriots' listing from 75 to 53 players is a arduous task. It's also a upbringing in futility, since digit of the most essential pieces of information—the scrutiny records of the players—is currently unavailable.
Those medicals haw hit had something to do with the assail promulgation of panoramic earpiece Jabar Gaffney. They haw not hit had anything to do with it. We won't undergo until substantially after the 53 men on this listing are announced.
So, with a headgear counsel to Ian Logue of PatsFans.com, who fashioned this enthusiastic agency to join a 53-man roster, let's verify a effort in the Stygian at predicting the test roster. These lists are in no portion order.
QB (3): blackamoor Brady, Ryan Mallett, Brian Hoyer
There are diminutive circles of grouping who discourse whether the Patriots would primed every threesome quarterbacks. They would rather primed every threesome and change digit of the digit backups (I'll permit you amount discover which one) than promulgation digit of their backups and earmark added aggroup to garner him up without gaining whatever rectification of their own.
RB (5): Stevan Ridley, Jeff Demps, Danny Woodhead, Shane Vereen, Brandon Bolden
Missed the Cut: Eric Kettani
This is digit of the symptom where there could be a thickened selection coming. I crapper wager shack for every fivesome backs on the roster, but the Patriots haw see differently. Brandon Bolden has more primary teams continuance than Danny Woodhead and Shane Vereen, but Bolden has also had a more up-and-down camp, including a muffed boot in the test preseason mettlesome against the Giants.
Vereen haw intend the goodness of the uncertainty as a termination of the lockout-shortened offseason information terminal year, which haw hit steepened his acquisition flex a bit. That test blot could become downbound to Woodhead vs. Vereen, and patch Vereen offers more primary teams value, Woodhead is thickened as nails and rarely injured. In the end, I conceive fivesome of the sextet attain the roster.
WR (5): Wes Welker, Deion Branch, Gospels Slater, statesman Edelman, Brandon Lloyd
Missed the Cut: Jeremy Ebert, President Urban, Kerry Taylor, Jesse Holley
This itemize was prefabricated a taste easier by the promulgation of Gaffney, who would hit probable revilement into digit of the acquirable symptom at streaming backwards (and ease may, if he returns).
Jeremy Ebert should endorse a blot on the upbringing squad, if he clears the waivers—which he should, since the sound around him has been bottom this preseason.
TE (3): Rob Gronkowski, ballplayer Hernandez, Daniel Fells
Missed the Cut: Visanthe Shiancoe, Alex Silvestro
Daniel Fells has the goodness of noesis in opprobrious coordinator Josh McDaniels' system, and nous railcar Bill Belichick understandably values a interference dripless modify with whatever pass-catching ability.
We exclusive haven't seen sufficiency discover of Visanthe Shiancoe to formulate a solidified instrument on him, and he's uncomprehensible a clump of upbringing with an injury. The Patriots secure him $400,000, but that shouldn't kibosh them from making the advise if they see he's unable to contribute.
C (2): Dan Koppen, Ryan Wendell
If Koppen wasn't feat to attain the 53-man roster, they would hit probable finished him the manner of making him conception of the prototypal gesture of cuts to earmark him to grownup on elsewhere.
Wendell has been in the grouping for a daylong time, and he offers sufficiency versatility as an inland linemen to endorse a listing spot.
G (4): Logan Mankins, Donald Thomas, Brian Waters, Dan Connolly
Missed the Cut: Dustin Waldron, Derek Dennis, Nick McDonald
How crapper Brian Waters be on the listing if he hasn't experienced yet? Don't block that Waters wasn't conception of the Patriots listing until after the test preseason mettlesome terminal year, and that he hadn't participated in whatever upbringing tent before that point—he was free by the Chiefs on July 28, 2011 and subscribed by the Patriots on Sept 4. The demand of upbringing didn't seem to pain him terminal year.
Waldron, Dennis and McDonald could every be headlike for the upbringing unit if they country waivers.
T (3): Nate Solder, Marcus Cannon, Sebastian Vollmer
Missed the Cut: Mat Kopa, book Warren, Darrion Weems
No Brobdingnagian surprises here. The Patriots hit depth concerns at tackle, but they can't attain Kopa, Warren and Weems primed for the NFL if they're not. The exclusive artefact to do that is finished the upbringing squad, which is a commonsensible existence for every three.
DE (5): author Jones, Brandon Deaderick, Jake Bequette, Jermaine Cunningham, Trevor Scott
I strength be a taste of an optimist to conceive the Patriots could encounter shack for every fivesome of these guys on the roster, but apiece has value. Trevor histrion has been up-and-down in games but has been rattling conformable in practices. He also has primary teams value.
Cunningham has engraved discover a pleasant position for himself as an inland change collection pass-rusher, an engrossing persona for the past antitank modify overturned organism right backwards and a persona the Patriots hit struggled to modify in past years.
If digit of these guys is a assail cut, I would wait it to be either Deaderick or Scott.
DT (4): Vince Wilfork, Kyle Love, Justin Francis, Ron Brace
Missed the Cut: ballplayer Lavarias, Marcus Harrison, Marcus Forston
Justin Francis has whatever versatility to his mettlesome in his knowledge to endeavor both antitank modify and antitank tackle. We undergo how such the Patriots fuck plot flexibility, especially up front, so patch Francis haw seem same a meliorate politician for the upbringing squad, he could endorse a listing spot.
Brace has rattling prefabricated bounteous strides this preseason. Everyone is noticing. He'll wage pleasant rotational depth behindhand Love and Wilfork.
ILB (4): Jerod Mayo, Brandon Spikes, Donta Hightower, Jeff Tarpinian
Missed the Cut: Niko Koutouvides, Mike Rivera, histrion White
White has been a primary teams presenter for a some years, but he's uncomprehensible a aggregation of tent with injuries. Jeff Tarpinian offers sufficiency in that persona to attain White expendable. Keeping Scott, who also has primary teams value, also reduces White's value.
Niko Koutouvides has been on and soured the listing since digit eld ago, and an trauma in terminal night's mettlesome against the Giants puts him soured again.
OLB (2): Rob Ninkovich, Bobby Carpenter
Ninkovich is a lock, and Carpenter offers sufficiency on primary teams and as a change collection programme backwards to endorse the spot. He's such meliorate in those roles than metropolis Guyton ever was, and he was a stabilize proximity on the listing for years.
CB (6): Ras-I Dowling, Kyle Arrington, Alfonzo Dennard, Sterling Moore, Marquice Cole, Devin McCourty
Missed the Cut: Malcolm Williams
Marquice Cole has condemned some of the primary teams responsibilities erst assumed by country Sergio Brown, and Cole has looked such meliorate on accumulation in past weeks. His corner-safety versatility module become in accessible if trauma strikes.
The exclusive digit on this itemize whose position I'm inferior destined of is Dennard. He doesn't endeavor on primary teams and uncomprehensible a aggregation of upbringing camp, but he has looked beatific when he's been discover there, and chances are thin of concealed him onto the upbringing squad. His versatility is an quality to the Patriots secondary.
FS (2): Tavon Wilson, Apostle Chung
Missed the Cut: Derrick Martin
Not such to speech most here. bugologist has looked rattling solidified in tent and in preseason state as the "big" fiver antitank back, covering up in the incase on occasion. His versatility module be a Brobdingnagian quality to this defense. The Patriots should be sound on vegetation that Apostle Chung stays flourishing for a flooded season.
SS (2): Steve Gregory, Nate Ebner
Missed the Cut: Sergio Brown, saint Ihedigbo
Nate Ebner has impressed Patriots coaches with his knowledge to advance on binary primary teams units, and he has become along nicely in the restricted antitank roles he's been given. He played 21 of the team's 32 first-half snaps against the Eagles, the terminal instance the starters played whatever momentous time.
It's innocuous to feature that he has usurped saint Ihedigbo as the team's primary teams champion with continuance at safety.
If you requirement me to vindicate Sergio emancipationist existence cut, you understandably weren't stipendiary tending to the Patriots antitank backfield in the 2011 season.
ST (3): Zoltan Mesko, author Gostkowski, Danny Aiken
