Brian Hartline - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Perfect complement to Lloyd outside 6'2" - 200 lbs. tough outside the numbers receiver and not a head case. He has a Patriots pedigree - brother Mike Hartline had a cup of coffee as a backup quarterback in 2012.

Can we go for the two for one pick pocket and grab Sean Smith too?

I'd be down with this.

I've already mocked this in my offseason "blueprint". But the questions are:

1. Does Miami use the franchise tag on him? He and Sean Smith are the 2 most likely guys to get tagged. Whoever doesn't get tagged or extended should be a potential target.

2. How much $ do we have to spend? Realistically, going after Hartline is probably an alternative to Welker, not in addition to Welker.

But we might be able to get Hartline and Kenny Phillips for not much more than it would cost to extend Welker.

Hartline is a very talented slot receiver

Donny Avery from the Colts is a nice option as well,if Welker heads elsewhere

Hartline isn't a slot receiver.

No way Miami, who is dedicated to their WCO, is going to let their talented receivers get away.

Love to see it happen but don't think we will spend what it will take. I think he will be looking for the same type of deal Jordy Nelson got from GB. If not more.

Hartline is more off an outside receiver.

He is high on my wish list as well. Think that he would be a great Patriot. Even with lots of cap space, doubt that the Fins franchise him.

If the Pats let WW walk, also give me Amendola (injury risk, I know, but young WW potential in this offense) and Collie (even bigger risk but won't cost much and big reward if he can stay healthy). Don't want Bowe. Jennings and Wallace will be too pricey. Draft a burner.
