Just saw that the Patriots signed Sam Cotton. They're pretty talented at the TE position so it's going to be an uphill battle for him but they did just release a TE yesterday and then brought him in so who know.

The Pats have released two tight ends but still have 5 on their roster. The top three are a lock and they will probably only keep four on the roster. Good luck to Sam; he's got a hill to climb.

Every one of the Cottons were legit players at Nebraska. I love it when people blame Barney Cotton for breeding 3 high level D1 kids that played for Nebraska and they really didn't have to put much effort to recruit any of them. Jesus f$&k people...
3 for 3. Some posters complained about all three Cotton boys, but all those three did was prove themselves by playing good football.

Not to mention crickets about a certain reach at WR now on the roster, considering the Cotton boys' father was not a repeat offender. The board can be a bit fickle, yes.

Sam looked pretty good running routes on @wideouts Twitter the past few months.
