Brady had some high praise for him in his interview this morning:

Quote:

"Ti, he was on our team late in the preseason, really picked up our offense very quickly, and he's just always been on the radar for our scouting department,” Brady said. "We had an opportunity to bring him back and we did. He's proven that he's very dependable in practice. I was bummed for him last night, because I know how badly he wanted to make that play. But he'll have other opportunities. He's a good young player that really works hard. He deserves an opportunity, and he got one yesterday. I know he wishes that we would have executed better. But that's part of football."

he played 19snaps yesterday. that drop was HORRENDOUS but hes gotta be showing something in practice for him to warrant so many snaps after basically just being signed(thats more than Ocho has been getting). maybe he was surprised that Brady actually targeted him

He shows he's the only #3 WR with speed who can walk without a limp?

If he sticks around, it will say a lot about our offensive playbook and that is only a select few can get it. We might get the most talented WR here but he might not fit and will be washed out unfortunately there are not many samples to go by.

It has to be the hair. Brady loves that hair.

He looks the part ... I trust their judgement and certainly the next few weeks is a good time to get him some throws.

Him and Price are both 24 years old, one's in his 3rd year, one's in his 2nd.

If Underwood is better, can improve, and help the team now and in the future more than Price so be it.

Underwood is very impressive for producing the most sound uttered by Patriot fans watching the game on TV.

looked like he ran a great rout, to bad for the drop.

6'1 185lb, combine was 4.40 in the 40 and young at 24, if he's picking up the offence faster than ocho and price that's a good start.

he looks slim, a burner, good for the long to intermediate ball but i'm sure he'll go where ever BB tells em. Hopefully TB can start hitting these no names and give us some surprise weapons down the stretch.

eraserhead would be a nice addition to this motley crew.

would love to finally get some resemblence of a deep threat.
