TE Roberts getting traded to Pats

[TRUMP]

Roberts getting traded for late round pick. Smart move. Wasn’t going to make the team. 

The Detroit Lions are trading backup tight end Michael Roberts to the New England Patriots. According to a report from Justin Rogers of the Detroit News, the Lions will ship Roberts to the Patriots for a conditional late-round pick in a year not specified yet.

Welcome to the Pro Bowl, Mr. Roberts.

Quinn's drafts have been hit and miss a lot. He hasn't bombed any nor has gotten a 5+ starters from one. But he is doing okay overall. They have been "nice, not thrilling but nice".

It is too bad he didn't catch on, he had his chance but it wasn't to be. At least they got something, albeit a conditional 7th, instead of just dumping him at some point.

He must have done some serious blocking in that Baltimore game because he had 1 catch for 23 yards.

Liked him a lot coming out of the draft, but he’s been a complete flop. Has talent, but given what Lions invested in offseason, he clearly needs change of scenery.

I could see him being a red zone weapon for Pats and catching 5-6 TD’s.

Wow. Trade voided, Roberts waived. Must have failed his physical.

[goldenlions]

Wow! I guess Roberts must be injured (surprise). I find it funny that Quinn tried to sly some shit on Belichick.

Roberts claimed by GB.

Roberts failed another physical, now waived by GB

Must be pretty bad because GB obviously already knew he failed a physical and still claimed him. I guess his career is over?
