Patriots missed out on a couple of good players

The Patriots release Jeremy Mincey and Vernell Brown to make their final roster cut.


Jeremy Mincey was a playmaker. Maybe it was the switch of positions that hurt him

"Florida rookie Jeremy Mincey struggled with the transition from down lineman to linebacker, and the learning curve appeared to be a bit too steep."



It was probably Vernell's size that hindered him, because he had the heart of a great player.

At least they were assured some money, picked up degrees from the 13th best public university in the nation and who knows, maybe someone else will pick them up in the future.

5 other players from Florida are still on the Pats
