I know they're kicking the tires on what would best be described as 2nd tier FA WRs @NEsportsnut: Anybody else you think is on pats radar?

Why did Bryant's productivity drop in HALF from 2008 to 2009 though? That has me worried. But it also probably means that we can get him for less $$$.

Yes sign him. He would be a great deep threat for the Patriots. Also, for once he would have only 1 QB throwing to him instead of 3 in one season!!

I'm really hoping this is true cause I think he's the best free agent we could sign right now, aside for Breaston.

I'd much prefer him over josh reed, cause the gap between the two of them is quite big. Bryant is a solid number 2 receiver, whereas Reed is a 3/4 receiver.

St. Pete reporter called in today on Sirius. He said he was surprised Tampa did not make more of an effort to resign him. He found out later from someone in the organization he lacks the desire to play ( football doesn't come first ), does not run his routes and is actually being blamed for six int's.

Originally I wanted him but not after what I heard. I hope they target mason but considering his wife decision a few years ago, we might not get him.

He's not a deep threat but he did have big play ability early in his career. He's more like an Anquan Boldin type receiver where he will get you tough yards over the middle and occasionally break the big one. He could be a great #2 receiver and really flourish when Welker returns.

Antonio Bryant: Career Stats

cause he went from Jeff Garcia, and Brian Griese. as he's QB to Byron Leftwich, Josh Johnson, and Josh Freeman, as he's QB

I can't think of anything that would be more detrimental to the team than a guy who isn't on the same page as Brady.

Took me off guard when I heard the interview
