While we wait for Moss, I am fine with
Stallworth, Caldwell, Welker and Washington
with perhaps one more on the Practice Squad

While we wait for Kyle Brady and Dave Thomas,
I am fine with Watson and Rivers

If Moss or Brady are not expected to back soon, we could should consider adding a HEALTHY backup at one of those spots: Childress or Mills.

It's been so long ... What is the nature of Brady's injury?

What happened to Gaffney? I know he got hurt, but is he IR'd or do you think he will be cut?

No one knows the extent of gaffney's injuries. My position is that if he isn't ready to start in the next 2-3 weeks, he should ce cut, after negotiated an injury settlement. Ir is a possibility, but just until the settlement is worked out.

All this Gaffney being cut business is ludicrous. Belichick has singled him out as one of the most improved players on the whole team. He will NOT be cut even if he can't play in the next 2-3 weeks. I'm sorry, there is just no way in hell that happens.

Gaffney back on the field today.

1st off, BB said the same thing about Larry Centers back when Centers was on the team. What happened? Centers got hurt. Got cut with an injury settlement and then came back later in the season.

YES, it CAN happen especially if the Pats NEED the roster sport for another player. However, the point is moot since Gaffney was back on the field today.
