Default I'm fine with our 2008 Receivers

I'm fine with
Stallworth, Welker, Jackson and Washington
These are the four signed to long-term contracts.

Washington could take time to develop, but I expect him to be the #5 receiver, the developmental spot, the ST's spot. I expect Jackson to be the #6 receiver, or be on the PUP list.

Of course, one of these four could be bumped in 2008 by the extension Moss or whichever of Gaffney and Caldwell we decide to keep, but I'd rather keep six than cut Washington this year.

Stallworth is a 1 year deal with an option for up to 4 or 6 i think.

I am presuming, as is the case on Miguel's charts, that the patriots will exercise all options on Stallworth. If he busts this year, the patriots can get out cheap.

I think our 2008 WR will be Moss, Stallworth, Welker, Jackson and TBD. That could be Washington if we keep him this year.

But I agree with the concept that if we only keep one of Moss & Stallworth, I am OK with that too.

I would be very happy if we add Moss for more years.

I agree with the Jackson speculation from other threads and in the OP that he may well be PUP. I would be a bit surprised to see him on the field; likely late in the season if at all. Healthy first, a need for his participation might not materialize excepting injuries/ departures.

I am curious about Washington, wondering if this environment will allow him to thrive, or whether the intense competition will squeeze him out of a choice spot on the depth chart.

Cool Re: I'm fine with our 2008 Receivers

A winning season may be a tonic to other players than Randy Moss,in other words they may sign for less to get a kick at a SB ring,time will tell.

I would prefer to see Jackson active for Training Camp, even if only in a red jersey. He needs as much drill/scrimmage time as he can get if he's ever going to develop.

Me too....for that would mean:

A) He had a terrific season (I think he is going to have a monster season - (within the spirit and confines of what it means to excel with this team, contributing heavily, not necessarily seen inside the numbers alone).

B) He will sign a cap friendly reasonable deal, one that provides decent money but is not ridiculous.

C) He fits in and is accepted by fan, media and most important -his coaches and teammates.

This is a dream team of WR's.......imagine if they actually all play to their potential!!

In the end, I think Josh will have Jackson or Brown or Mills. I would be fine with Jackson as the #6 receiver. It would indeed help him for the future.
