NE releases G Jonathan Cooper

[NWPATSFAN]

Was this a good deal for NE? NE traded Chandler Jones to AZ for a 2nd round pick. NE gets Malcom Mitchell and Joe Thuney along with Cooper. No way NE would be able to afford the Chandler contract. He's been playing great as expected in AZ. Copper injured since he arrived in NE was set to return when the team decided to release him. NE feels 2nd year player Shaq Mason and rookie Ted Karras can hanlde RG duties.
Thoughts?

In other words, you are surprised that you are surprised....OooooooK, gotcha !!!

At this point AZ won the trade. However NE won the game which is what really counts. We need at least a year to see how it really turns out.

Yep would've loved to have kept him. Our loss is AZ gain

I absolutely loved this guy coming out of college. Injuries have taken their toll.

Maybe Cooper got caught NOT Cheating on his game day test.

Fool now he'll have to sign on with a team like Dallas and never be heard from again. Unfortunate he was so promising. He's really fast as far as guards go so Jerry Jones wants him.

Two things wrong here. No names are known when they are are Cowboys, and Dallas is more than Fine at guard. I know you can do better NW, I've seen it once or twice

Not surprised. He would have been cut some time back if he wasn't injured.
New England avoiding an injury settlement. Business is business

Jerry wants to make him a WR

Rumors of NFL banning synthetic marijuana played a part in Chandler's trade also.....

Synthetic marijuana added to NFL's banned list

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Lol @ anyone who thought Cooper was more than a filler piece in that trade

 

[Manster7588]

Jerry wants to make him a WR

Can he play SS or DL?

 

[Southieinnc]

Is he practice squad eligible?????

"Fallon added that the hope is Cooper clears waivers and can return to the Patriots' active roster."

I'm surprised that more people aren't surprised, which in itself is surprising.

Surprising you would think that......

 

[Hank Kingsley]

I thought the letting go given what they gave up to get him was surprising, and his high draft position when he was draft, and the relative issues on the NE o line last year.

But Bill dumping somebody is absolutely not surprising.....

Can he play SS or DL?

On that Dallas defense the probability is good

 

[Manster7588]

Quite possibly.
