afosomf Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Merriweather was a bust for pats, he has been a JAG everywhere he has been, Spikes was a bust, might be slowest LB i have ever seen. Dropson and Taylor price busts, Why dont you review all your 2nd rd picks pretty pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatsFanTX Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 agree, CBS reported it may have been "off the field" issues as well and it was cheaper to keep him so they have to expect someone to take a chance, can a waiver claim depend on a medical? Yes, player has to pass the team's physical or everything is null and void. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hael Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 This is actually pretty significant, the loss of Chandler Jones and Dominique Easley are really going to hurt the Patriots front (which was one of the better ones in football last year in terms of getting to the qb). Easley was rarely healthy, but he had ridiculous burst and was really difficult to block. Good news for the rest of the AFC east Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 The pats fans as usual simply cannot say a bad thing about their team or their god Belichick, thus as usual totally destroying any credibility they might want to portray. Easley was an awful awful pick the moment it was made and it is all the worse now having to cut a guy that started a whopping 3 games. His knees were shot before he was drafted and most people were in shock that he was drafted that early by the Pats, a huge reach when the guy was red flagged due to his wonky knees. But the hubris of Belly shines through. Now instead of having any cred at all and simply saying "You know Belly royally screwed up on that pick, it was terrible but lol we still have Brady." We get a slew of excuses, lame reasons why the pats were not at fault for this guy and moreso bleating about things other than the topic at hand, that being that the pats and belly royally fugged up that pick.

flgreen Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Patriots player: 'Injuries and locker room cancer' led to Easley's release by Caitlyn Holroyd Apr 14, 10:09 AM Boston Globe / Getty The New England Patriots' decision to release 2014 first-round pickDominique Easley on Wednesday was reportedly motivated by more than just his injury issues. Multiple league sources told Ben Volin of the Boston Globe that the defensive tackle was unreliable and immature, and was never a good fit for the Patriots. "He'll make an appointment for a massage and not show up," one source told Volin. "He's just very disrespectful and irresponsible." Added another source: "I think he rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. He comes across as an entitled kid. He reneges on everything. He thinks he's invincible." Easley's release apparently didn't come as much of a surprise to his former teammates, either. "Saw that coming," an unnamed Patriots player said. "Injuries and locker room cancer." A highly touted prospect out of Florida, Easley was projected as an early first-round pick before tearing his ACL a second time. Lingering knee issues caused him to miss five games in his rookie season, and he was limited to 11 games in 2015 due to knee, hip, and ankle injuries. Easley repeatedly ignored requests from the Patriots to rehab his injuries with the team's trainers, according to Volin, instead rehabbing alone. The Patriots became so fed up with him during his rookie season that after placing him on injured reserve in December, they told him to rehab away from the team until offseason workouts began in April, Volin reports. The Patriots "never liked him from the get-go, and part of the problem was he would never listen to the medical advice," a source said. Easley reportedly felt the same way, telling people privately that he wanted out of New England. He got his wish, and must now wait and see if another team claims him off waivers.

Once again the total inability to ever admit that anything the pats or Belly do is wrong or a mistake makes you guys look no smarter than the fools on the pats forums. BB has made a lot of mistakes in this 'draft manipulation'. If you have one of the best QB's ever you go for it and yet he has had years where he traded back rather than take premium players. His biggest fault over the years? Doing an awful job of getting his QB WR's that are really good. In any case all of that is secondary to what this thread is about. Any way you slice it the Easily pick was just horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Easily's scouting report from that year: "Easley was lost for the 2013 season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament and medial meniscus in his right knee during a routine practice September 24. Despite sustaining the injury, Easley announced shortly thereafter that he was heading to the NFL. The injury was particularly disconcerting because less than two years earlier, Easley suffered a similar injury to his left knee. When healthy, Easley has shown great quickness, an attribute that he has used to penetrate offensive lines and consistently pressure opposing quarterbacks. Unfortunately, besides durability, Easley has also struggled with making the big play when in position to do so, flashing rather than dominating. A healthy Easley has exceptional get-off quickness, constantly playing on the other side of the line of scrimmage. But buyer beware. In a draft awash with talent, some team will really need to have a special feeling for Easley to spend a high pick based on potential not attained due to multiple, non-contact injuries. At under 290 pounds, Easley may be considered undersized to be an every-down interior defensive lineman at the next level. As with any player who has suffered an ACL tear, there may be questions about durability and long-term health. Not a natural fit in a 3-4 front and may struggle to earn an every-down role in the 4-3. Due to his less-than-ideal size, Easley is reliant on his burst and agility, making his recovery from a second ACL injury potentially critical to his NFL success " The very definition of a Bust Reach.
