Me too! I bought the stock! :D
I expected the Strev and Wilson show but didn't see this coming so quick
I should have shorted the stock lol
I'm actually encouraged by the release of Patterson and Domigala, means they feel that the potential of guys like Wilson and Chase is higher.

Rogers missed the last couple of days with an injury. The way he looked in rookie camp I wouldn't be surprised to see him again this year. Brown was nicked too yesterday. With Patterson's skill set I definitely think he can contribute in this league.

So many people reacting to the Patterson news negatively -- look at this way: maybe it says something about the camps the other QBs are having, too.
We had too many bodies. The most likely scenario was always Collaros, Strev, Wilson. Patterson wasn't staying around on the PR - that spot's for Artopoeus if he'll take it.
I had Artopoeus and Patterson as roughly even for #4. I would think expectations were higher for a vet. Wilson is looking good though, that is the good news.
We've reached a point that we may see a bit of revolving door with some rookies. A few will have a good enough look to be shown the door. A few others the team may want to take a closer look might be brought in. There might even be a player or 2 that were released elsewhere that might be of interest.
While that isn't too common in the earlier it does happen.
EDIT: Kickel and Walker released from the OL and 2 new OL added.
