It will be interesting to see the make-up of the 45 man roster for today's against the Broncos. Jerod Mayo is questionable and Fred Taylor is out. The Pats have been silent on whether Taylor will be placed on injured reserve. Is this an opportunity for BenJarvis Green-Ellis to be the 4th running back? Will Coach Belichick even dress four backs today? What about receivers? Last week, Joey Galloway was a "healthy" scratch. That's not a good sign for him. Will the team go with four receivers this week and dress another defensive back?
Week 6 will be an interesting time. WR Brandon Tate will be eligible to be activated. The 3rd round pick from the 2009 draft has been recuperating from knee surgery from last season. There are thoughts that he could be take Galloway's spot. Will the Pats cut Galloway and absorb his salary cap hit? Is it too early to give up on the 15 year veteran?
During Friday's press conference, Coach Belichick gave an interesting dissertation on finalizing the game day roster. So many factors are taken into account, depending on the opponent. It's a question of the needs on offense, defense and special teams. It varies game to game.
