In all seriousness, Edwards is all wasted ability. I think if he was ever going to live up to his potential it would be in a place like New England, but I don't want to give him #1 money to gamble on that.

The only chance Edwards is here is if he realize he isn't going to get what he wants and wants revenge on the Jets for not giving him a contract. Even then, I would give him an one year contract and sell him that playing with Brady will skyrocket his stock next offseason.

edwards was good last season. he wants 10mil per year though

Yeah... that pick still burns. But whatever. Everyone makes mistakes in the draft, even our resident genius BB. At least we can tell ourselves that Tate can return kicks. Not sure if he's making the team this season though. Ocho, Welker, and Branch are our top 3. Then he's gotta beat out Edelman and Price for a spot.

I think we've hit our quota this year in the " personality" department.

Gonna have to pass...plus I hated the stupid beard.

If Tate didn't get hurt, he would have gotten picked in the first round. I watched many games of UNC football, and I can assure you, Tate was the star WR while Hakeem Nicks played second banana.

If the Pats don't have 10 WRs on their roster, they're not trying hard enough

patriot lifer · 07-31-2011, 10:41 AM

A resounding NO from me.

Any idea how many times I've heard this? The reality is, "It is, what it is" and right now it isn't much.

Ok, but he DID get hurt, and if the players has to sit out for a year that means his value decreases an automatic 20% (likely more) relative to the player that's not injured. Was less than 4 seasons of Tate likely to be better than 5 seasons of Wallace?
