Free-agent TE Paul Butler (Raiders), TE Alex Ellis (Eagles) and OG Benjamin Braden (Jets) signed with the New England Patriots Monday, Aug. 17. Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: They've been looking for help at the tight end position for most of the offseason. The Patriots do have two interesting rookie tight ends in Devin Asiasi and Dalton Keene but wanted more competition at the position.

  Raiders | Paul Butler working with starters    Thu Jun 6, 09:33 PM

Oakland Raiders TE Paul Butler has been working with the first-team offense during spring practices.

Footballguys view: Butler was undrafted in 2018 out of California University of Pennsylvania. He participated in the Raiders 2018 rookie minicamp on a tryout basis and eventually earned a spot on their practice squad. Butler was signed to the active roster at the end of the 2018 season, but he did not play a down as a rookie. The Raiders let Jared Cook go in free agency, and they are trying to find their next starting tight end. Butler must be doing something to impress since he's working with the first team...we'll monitor his progress in training camp and the preseason.

  Raiders | Oakland places six on practice squad    Sun Sep 2, 05:21 PM

Free-agent WR Saeed Blacknall. WR Marcell Ateman, LB Jason Cabinda, TE Paul Butler, S Dallin Leavitt and FB Ryan Yurachek were signed to the Dallas Cowboys practice squad Sunday, Sept. 2.

Footballguys view: Ateman was a Raiders UDFA but he did not make their 53 man roster. The Cowboys have one of the most underwhelming wide receiver corps in the league, so Ateman could get onto the active roster by the end of the year.

Footballguys view: Ateman is a big receiver with great ball skills who should make a practice squad somewhere.

  Raiders | More roster moves for Raiders    Mon May 7, 06:13 PM

Undrafted free-agents TE Paul Butler (California, Pa.) and FB Henry Poggi (Michigan) were signed by the Oakland Raiders Monday, May 7. Additionally, RB Elijah Hood, DE Joby Saint Fleur and FB Nick Sharga were waived.

Footballguys view: Hood is a player we were monitoring in super deep dynasty leagues. He's a power back in the classic sense, so perhaps he'll get a shot elsewhere.
