Quote:Patriots released Bryan Stork. Could be worth a look

 

This was brought up here. Four concussions in four years? I'm thinking I'll pass on the guy.

I just read where the Pats are about to release starting Center Bryan Stork. This guy is a solid player and is tough as nails, but he does have an injury history and a quick temper. He would definitely be an upgrade to our O-Line or at least provide valuable depth. Do you think we take a run at him?

It's a low risk move. Best case he gives us good depth, worst case he has a bad attitude and we release him. Definitely worth a look by the front office.

So the fact that he's had four concussions in four years and just had one in training camp doesn't concern you?

It is concerning. I didn't say 100% sign him, just that it's low risk if we do. It would be a 1 year rental anyway if he checks out attitude and injury wise.

We could have tried to get Alex Mack again and chose not to. Dave Caldwell's stated reason was his age. That tells me he does not want to bring in a veteran center, which Ryan Stork is.

Well he signed Bernadeau who is a vet so that tells me he would bring in a vet. Your logic is garbage.

I am telling you what Dave Caldwell said in his press conference on March 10. My logic is not garbage if it is based on a proven fact.

Fact is he also signed Bernadeau who is a vet, no?

Do we think Omameh will survive the cut?

Doubt it

Stork is now off the table. The Pats decided to trade him to the Redskins for a conditional 7th round pick instead of releasing him. Oh well......

We don't want a guy who gets concussed every year anyway.

Omemeh is a true bubble player. In trying to predict the roster I keep putting him on it then taking him off then putting him back on it, etc. I'd say it's 50-50 as to whether he makes it or not.

Depends on health condition of the tackle and guard players ahead of him on the depth chart, but I'd call it highly unlikely.

Wasn't Omameh the lineman who recently had a concussion?

No, that was Linkenbach.
