Truth is he's an inconsistent, average WR that in my eyes got beat for his job by Lafell. I'm not shocked by this, because I never really rated KT anyways.../
Me thinks if Amendola didn't have such a highcap number he'd be gone -not KT.
Actually he was much better than the Pat version of Chad Ochocinco.I've heard Tompkins in this board be compared to every WR from Chad Johnson, Marvin Harrison and Antonio Brown. He's none of those guys, not even close.
He was disgustingly overrated around here...

I can't see how this is that big if a deal, plus I bet he is back later on
Good news for Dobson this is, he's gonna get pushed into a heavy role and it's exactly what we need.
I don't agree with that. I believe the coaching staff rates DA over KT. To date DA been activated for every game. Using his cap number is not an excuse. BB had no problem deactivating Adelius Thomas in 09. We know how much he cost.
He isn't what the Pats need atm, b/c he doesn't have special team value and he isn't a good blocker - but as a receiver he is significantly better than Amendola and Lafell.
IMO, a 55-man roster for another week was just too much for BB to pass up.
I think this "musical chairs" roster is contributing to the lack of consistency on the field.
Wow..what a shocker, especially with Kenbrell Thompkins being on the "Jerry Rice" training program all summer long and ready to be a top 10 NFL wide receiver
Shalise Manza-Young reports he mouthed-off to McDaniels...
What I don't get is KT had 30+ catches last year. Instead of improving, he has regressed? Same is true with AD - he had 30+ catches in 2013 but instead of improving in 2014, he has regressed. And the same thing can be said of Amendola. Over 50 catches last year but on track for whopping 12 catches for the 2014 year. Something is very wrong with the receiver in NE.
McDaniels is OVERRATED. Horrible on field results in Denver, St Louis, and now has dismantled O'Brien's offense in NE to the point where even Brady can't save it.
.
Zero times three is still zero...KT wasn't a world beater but he was good for about 3 catches a game. Which is triple the production of Amendola.
The whole thing makes more sense when you see that:
-McDaniels is horrible, sucks at talent evaluation, is stubborn, and ran the worst offenses in the league in St Louis and Denver.
-Belichick is old and making less and less decisions every week.
Last time i checked, Manning got to the superbowl using mostly talent on offense that McDaniels drafted(pro bowl receiver Thomas, Decker, probowl guard beadles) three players we would probably love to have right about now knowshon moreno(a running back that has consistently murdered the patriots).
Josh has made some mistakes, but he had more hits then misses as the person directly in charge of picking talent.
