Davone Bess?

You might think I'm crazy, but hear me out

Davone Bess, MIA – The Dolphins tried a variety of options at receiver last year, but only twice was Davone Bess a starter. And yet, Bess was the team’s leader in receptions (by 26) and yards (by 206). This year he’ll compete in camp for a starting gig. With many big name receivers set to the hit the market, don’t be shocked if Bess becomes one of the steals, as Wes Welker was a couple years ago in a trade as a restricted free agent.

Davone Bess is exactly the type of player that New England turns into a star. He has so much potential and would fit perfectly into our system. He's much younger than Randy Moss. He has a way better attitude than Randy Moss. He's hungrier than Moss. And most importantly, he would be way cheaper than Randy Moss, which would allow us to use cap space on other needed positions like RB, DE, and OLB.

Bess doesn't have half the talent of Randy Moss. I think the Pats draft a top WR early unless they can come to an agreement on an extension once the season is over.

Well Davone Bess is a much better football player, so I'd rather sign him.

You can't be serious.

I like Bess, but he's more of a Welker type. And since we have the original Welker and a backup Welker, I think Bess would be a waste of money.

With everything I've seen on here in the past week, my stupidity detector is broken.

I can't remember how this board was in 2006 when the Pats last lost back to back games with the Jets being the 2nd team in a row to beat them.

I bet it was not pretty...

I think any WR comes via the FA market ... Bill will be going DL and maybe RB in round 1 anyways. I'd rather see Randy stay ... even in a reduced role he will be lethal especially in the Red Zone.
