That guy was a waste. But when you collect this many TEs, you can't win with all of them.

Agreed. Dont get IR designation. If it was that bad he wouldnt do interviews. Branch knows playbook but speed is gone Stallworth still got that speed deep threat. Why IR him? You need room derrick martin is on the team. Come on.

We tried that....

Chad Jackson and Bethel Johnson said hi

This team has failed with rookie WRs...better off with a bonafide veteran WR who is somewhere between 26-31 years of age (Hartline,Wallace,Jennings) before risking another dud....get a FA then gamble in the draft.

Jackson 2

if that we're the case, it would seem he'd be on IR.

Maybe third times a charm? I agree though the history is not on the pats side, especially when you sprinkle in Tate/Price in the third rounds.

2012: toast Branch/toast Stallworth
2011: Ochocinco
2010: Brandon Tate
2009: Sam Aiken

The last four years the third WR spot has been occupied by complete stiffs. Maybe there is a Josh Gordon clone in this draft.

Bizarre move. Would rather have Stallworth. Branch could not have made the play Stall did last night.

1 follow-up on Donte' Stallworth: Wasn't available for final 25 minutes vs. Texans. Final play was TD catch. Nice way to go out.


Mike Reiss ‏@MikeReiss
My sense on Stallworth is combo of injury/roster management. Need more depth at WR; don't have luxury to hold his spot while injured.


Mike Reiss ‏@MikeReiss
Because Patriots thin at WR, when Stallworth was sidelined for final 25 minutes, took away ability to go 3 WR. Can't be handcuffed like that

How about picking a wr that the scouts sais is good and not someone they said you should avoid, say someone like Chad Jackson who the scouts told BB to avoid but he didn't. He trusted other people than the scoutes and that didn't really work out.


This news kind of sucks. Stallworth was a huge improvement over Branch. I know that Branch knows this playbook extremely well, but he is slow and can't get any seperation. Stallworth knows the playbook and can get open down field as we saw in the game. I'm sorry but Branch is a 4-5 option at wr, at best. He has been really good for us other years but age has not been kind to him. You can have any magical connection with Brady, but if you can't get open then you can't. No connection can help that. I think fans have a hard time accepting this.
