Play from 0:33[0:33]" But that's an official plaque cast of doing it it's Friday June 13 and -- in the -- definitely scared. It at bat applaud him and it. As -- to doing here and -- fat -- you know and up well. What I meant a lot like busy week with the roster lots and lots of huge moves I think we -- at three different. Roster updates from the the article I believe so and and even some that players I've never heard of before that apparently on the roster for a segment of time. But we'll start recapping -- move late last week. Mike -- The favorite of Eric LV you know I had him Winnetka removed from the team and I will update that. Decision was some breaking news out of Foxboro Fred perish the rental but here Patriots stuck on the PFW. I think there's an outside chance that -- ghost of it will be brought back. And that the release was simply a message we all laughed at that in think you should laugh at that as well and not put any credence and they've let that -- that -- fourth yesterday PFW progress at that feels like just he and I he went to Larry Izzo Larry -- charity -- It feels to count and has a history of the YouTube clip so that maybe they had to it was your attitude to go of it and that's why he's able to demonstrative and not too big and comfortable for his britches and for a -- interest. -- an idea more awed frontiers. Yeah and there's a lot of analysts -- she's moving on from there. Gene marched out he was signed offensive lineman. Formerly of the Patriots most recently with the Miami Dolphins fifteen games last year in Miami you would have to be in our spilling -- and it felt going yes MR use easy of the famous ski Mruczkowski brother. Quite the offensive line Finley coming out of Murkowski household -- rather. I'll go Steve here please for the Chargers got through his first name is anyway for a purpose this little city. Moving on from there the team started to bear down on the roster. Moving forward towards the eighty man roster limit that fans have heard so much about this spring and coaches readying for training camp -- worried about the lack of NFL Europe roster exemptions Patriots released trio of rookie free agents in. Tight end Tyson of Tyson degree. Nose tackle Henry hank -- where Louisville not to be confused bigs. I was little and finally a guy I've never heard of he -- Tyler the line defensive lineman. Never heard them never saw him and never will because now he's no longer knowing Peyton what's really got to be an -- now that won't happen. And then the next rules then you'll -- Sam's got player the veteran punter brought in before the ghost of -- this spring. Was waved as recently as yesterday. Bringing the Patriots down two singles specialist -- packed and long snapper Stephen Gostkowski kicker and Chris Ian and of the famed. Longest drive competition recently is that the -- Hanson Brothers know not your favorite as a group. Slap shot tomorrow. But you are big fan of Hanson Brothers will say that for a PFW progress show but the Patriots down a single specialist -- to the three spot there. The offensive line looks like it's a developing situation. Paul Perillo Gene Mruczkowski brought back on board Oliver Ross brought aboard a couple weeks ago and Barry and who started. Sixteen games at left tackle for the Raiders last year veteran free agent in nine seasons was in for a visit what does it all mean."

Play from 4:07[4:07]" I think that the easy answer the obvious answer would argue that one. It's coming -- you know it's coming in light of the avenue catcher situation yes that it really don't know and there's no way to know exactly how that's going to come out right now. -- I think that the Patriots just doing them of where a team to get some insurance gather insurance for guys like of accidentally stepping in addition to that you mention this. I PFW private -- and Andy. The though injuries they have on the line what he'd even -- How raw you already talked about he hasn't a paid anything he has broken collarbone reportedly. So these guys that are being rumored to. Command actually going to need to fill of spots at least in the short term. Immediate -- going yet going forward when everybody's healthy and if the catcher situation unfolds favorably for the Patriots he still here."

Play from 4:56[4:56]" And I think you have some competition what does that say you know it was up to both the we looked at the offensive line -- position we're not only were they returning the five starters but they were returning a slew of veteran back -- all started. Billy Yates -- hope -- west lead rip Ryan Callahan does this say anything about. The team's lack of comfort with -- any of those guys stepping into roles that they may have been asked of bill yeah I wondered about that with with -- here in particular because. They had him lined up at right guard in place of -- right during mean what does that say about Holstein or Yates. You know two guys that started at that spot in the past. Key games and that -- bunt passed right so and on I don't know if that's an indication that they're looking to maybe get younger. Some of those backup maybe a little bit like expensive I don't know. I don't know I don't have the answer to that or maybe day fielding catcher might be a better -- guard. Maybe the tribunal but it worked. Yeah but I'm saying if you have the it in the uncertainty of what. Cash is going to do right I think -- I don't that's not if the uncertainty isn't there and they're just planning for the future maybe -- maybe he's not the right tackle I think you're onto something there in terms of planning for the future and that maybe they've just cited. Even -- with -- Recurring shoulder issues is not a guy that they can any longer count on and say he's our right guard for now next weeks next month next year. And maybe they say. All of the the bodies we have to work with catcher versatile athletic guy. Maybe he's our right guarding him ERA are moving forward -- Callahan has starting experience maybe they look at that is as more of a long term solution band just. Russ -- aren't going to start for two weeks because I'm not sure they the rest hope I and is one of their best five offensive line I think Russ Hochstein -- is always going to be. A number six or number seven offensive -- very good shirt guy off the bench he can throw him guards and or do whatever. But I'm not sure. That Warren -- might not been right in that he's not a Super Bowl champion starting offensive -- that you know you play every down of every game."

Play from 7:01[7:01]" All year long that's an interesting theory no doubt and you know -- an improvement on given -- guys credit in. And while that you really even give that any thought I'd give you guys credit where's the -- Eric tonight. -- was -- like aren't like football. Eric -- you -- as usual you can log on my own thoughts as usual he had problems articulating I think I -- from articulating I think you understood exactly what wondering are going forward though you know with. You know marry him or something you know that is that the right tackle or is Ryan Callahan Wesley Britt it looked like. -- looks a little different to me in terms of it looked a little thinner slimmed down and to me then and I remember seeing him in the past I don't know if that's accurate he -- not overly fat stuck with now now he was well it looks like a pretty athletic. Tackle you just got married through the medium that. Didn't talks for the -- Christians they want to get busy I don't know what they're talking about over the Barry. There's never know where you're going to -- to drag him into the gutter. Into the post wedding bedroom my -- Anyway those are all the moves and since two gender our producer today and to play the music louder and louder as we go along I think wants us to an effort to start talking so with that on this Friday the thirteenth. Without -- who. Move human Spirit. We go back to. Expert new roster when I think."
