Maybe so. Bottom line is I want good players. I don't care if they are choir boys or speak their mind.

I think trading Higgins would be a mistake ... I can see him being here a long time; maybe even beyond Landry or OBJ.

I think trading Schobert would be a mistake, but a bit more understandable considering his contract’s expiration and position

Apples and oranges.

What idiot wants to trade Higgins?

I agree. Calloway is way more polished and has more talent at receiver. As for returner, I don't think either is all that good.

I can't speak for Miller, but Calloway is like a gazelle. Just a fast glider. A returner needs to be like a rabbit. Able to dart around. They have speed, but speed isn't what makes it hard to catch.

The 2017, or was it 2018 Browns cut Higgans for a couple weeks to begin the season, before bringing him back.

It was 2017. Last year was Bakers 1st year and he and Higgins lit it up when Baker was limited to 2nd and 3rd team QB duties by the powers that at that time captained the sinking ship.

Mutiny on the Brownie was around the corner.

They cut him in Sept 2017, and then brought him back on the practice squad a few days after. Activated him to the 53 a week or so after that.

Nice!

I've been thinking that for the first 8 weeks, we could use D'Ernest Johnson as our returner. After that Kareem Hunt comes back and we can decide whether we keep him or the Tulane RB assuming Chubb is healthy.

He was a punt and kick returner for USF (2016 2nd Team All-Conference), and i think he might have had coverage duties also.



He's the guy that stood out the most to me verses the Colts. Him and Montgomery. Unfortunately, Montgomery was put on IR

Or we could carry 4 RBs' after Hunt returns.

For the first 8 games DJ will be #3.

Perhaps we sign another, but with the trade of Duke, we have room for all 4, which most teams keep on their 53 from the RB position.

I look for us to trade some WR and DL depth away this week for depth in other areas or picks for next year.

I doubt anything bg, but most likely guys that we would cut anyway.

I was hoping to open this thread to see news of us acquiring a new OL or two

Josh Jones was released, I know several on this board liked him...could use that safety depth, but admittingly I havent seen him play.

If anyone would have interest, I bet it’s us given our ties to GB .. we’ll see, but it’d be a great fill in for Peppers’ role .. Randall/Jones both from GB

That's what I was thinking...I read he plays both S spots and some rover LB as well...seems like a change will do him good.

Reading the GB fans thoughts, he was an attitude/effort problem there ... maybe he’d be different here, but if he’s tha versatile I’d expect Dorsey to give him a shot

The Patriots have signed two players: LB Scooby Wright and RB Robert Martin. They were present at today's practice.

I see no way that Calloway would survive waivers. I do not see him as a return option as a first choice. Is it possible he is trade bait? If we mean what we say about consistency, then I think he is on the bubble.

I bring it up because we certainly have some depth and we certainly have some needy spots. I could easily see Dorsey wrangling some of this for trades, upgrades, and crack filler. This cut down coming must be like a bonus day for him with so much in house already right now.

"Ruh-ro, Raggy!"

Good info Dawgs!

Lol!

Good for Scooby, though, a journeyman LB whom Belichick gives an opportunity.

A couple of thoughts on different posts:

--We don't need another guy w/some character concerns.

--We should keep Callaway, though. His speed is something that was missing the other night.

I remember when Scooby Wright made unblocked tackle
In a preseason game vs the Bears I think and one fourth of this board had his HOF jacket ready
He belonged in Keluka Maivia David Veikune club.

Does anyone think Demetrius Harris is in danger of not making the team?

I think that every TE not named David Njoku is probably sweating things out right now.

Gosh, I hope so

I'm thinking there's one in particular we should not have gotten rid of this offseason.

Regarding what's left behind Njoku: I wish Pharoah had stepped up a bit.

I bet we bring in one of the Colt's castoffs. We'll probably keep Harris over Brown, though.

One duff game doesn't mean our WR unit isn't as deep as we think. Sure, Callaway was missed, but his absence certainly wasn't the reason. Even Higgins, our #3, struggled. Mayfield struggled. The OL struggled. The run game struggled. Monken and Kitchens struggled.

I think his contract keeps him safe this year, but he has not been a bright spot.

Offensively, he has been a mess. However, I haven't paid attention to his blocking which I believe was a main driver in him coming here.

I think that we have others who are in a battle to make the roster from the position, that we want to get a better look at this week.

He could still end up on our PS.
