  Cowboys | Dallas signs several to Reserve/Future deals    Mon Jan 1, 03:39 PM

Dallas Cowboys CB Marquez White, WR Brian Brown, WR K.D. Cannon, S Jameill Showers, DT Joe Vellano, DL Jarron Jones and RB Trey Williams were signed to Reserve/Future contracts Monday, Jan. 1.

Footballguys view: Washington picked up Trey Williams as a UDFA out of Texas A&M in 2015. Williams has bounced around the league to six different teams and this is his second stint with the Cowboys. He's got some speed with the footwork to make moves without losing stride. Only those in super deep dynasty leagues should be monitoring Williams or any of these other skill position players signed to futures contracts by the Cowboys.

  Patriots | Two working to prove themselves again    Sat Jun 14, 11:28 PM

New England Patriots DTs Chris Jones and Sealver Siliga made an impact last season when injuries struck, but they know they need to prove themselves again. If the team keeps five interior linemen again this season, Jones and Siliga appears to be safe, with DLs Armond Armstead, Joe Vellano and Marcus Forston on the outside of the bubble.

  Patriots | Chris Jones, Joe Vellano expected to start    Sat Oct 12, 10:07 PM

New England Patriots DTs Chris D. Jones and Joe Vellano are expected to start at defensive tackle in the team's Week 6 game. DT Marcus Forston is also expected to see time at the position.

Footballguys view: The Saints could opt to run more with the Patriots defensive tackle rotation depleted, but that would go against their character as an offense.

  Patriots | 15 UDFAs signed    Fri May 3, 04:34 PM

The New England Patriots have signed undrafted free-agent DT DeWayne Cherrington (Mississippi State), SS Kanorris Davis (Troy), OL Elvis Fisher (Missouri), TE Brandon Ford (Clemson), DT Cory Grissom (South Florida), CB Brandon Jones (Rutgers), OL Josh Kline (Kent State) OL Chris McDonald (Michigan State), WR T.J. Moe (Missouri), CB Stephon Morris (Penn State), LB Ian Sluss (Portland State), C Matt Stankiewitch (Penn State), TE Zach Sudfield (Nevada), DT Joe Vellano (Maryland) and LS Mike Zupancic (Eastern Michigan). Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Moe and Sudfield are the two players to watch in deep dynasty leagues here. Sudfield has impressive run after the catch ability and was a standout player for our very own Cecil Lammey at the Shrine Game earlier this year. Moe was a productive slot WR for Mizzou and has some Danny Amendola to his game.
