My only point was that Gibson was likely to make the team. When the WR position starts to thin out, you should try to preserve a player like that and not expose him to that kinda risk.
Am I the only one w/ faith in Harper? I liked him from day 1 over Gibson. He is skinny but he has springs in his feet that will make him dangerous after the catch. I just wish Tyms had more opportunities this year. We will be just fine if Dobson and/or Chandler work out.
yes I can
From what I saw in practices and two home preseason games in person, yeah, I'd take Harper over ANY of these other guys. This kid has GREAT, not good, GREAT hands...and he gets open.
Any team that doesn't have 5 pro bowl WRs is run by a **** GM, I agree.
Wow, that is pretty idiotic and unrealistic.
First of all JoJo LaFell is a crucial piece of our offense, but putting him on a PUP list isn't the end of the world. Gronk and Edelman are the main weapons in my opinion. There is Chandler, Amendola and I'm sure one of the Dobson/Harper duo ( or maybe both of them ) will jump into a higher level. Of course BB would think about experienced WR vet like James Jones, Michael Floyd or maybe even VJ, but a trade isn't a necessary matter. Many times we question and doubt in BB's decisions , but all in all he's got right. Personally I prefer to see a team as a one body with manny weapons in the offense, than put my trust in one or two superstars with no backups.
Last year at this time we had Edelman. That's it . Gronk was still in preseason mode. Amendola was still recovering from a nutsack tear. Lafell was still trying to get on the same page as Brady. The offensive line was still disorganized. How did that turn out??
meanwhile, jets went out and scooped brandon marshall right out from under our noses.
buffalo drafted watkins.
I'm sure miami did something
we are losing the arms race!!
You really don't get this whole "maturity" thing, do you?
Gronk is a matchup nightmare vs any team. So no matter what happens with your receivers, as long as Gronk is healthy and you have Brady making whoever lines up at WR better, the offense should be in good shape.
With that said, Revis/Cro/Skrine are waiting with bated breath for week 7.
Should be a good matchup again this year. I actually think Fitzpatrick is a better option for you, and would've much rather have seen Geno Smith.
Yeah, I agree. The moves at WR during TC have mostly been because of attrition. I knew something had to be up with LaFell. It's funny how his story went so far under the radar. I would search everyday for news on him and there really never was any significant news prior to yesterday. That's odd to me, even by Patriots standards.If LaFell, Gibson and Tyms were all 100% healthy Wayne would have never stepped foot in Foxboro. Yet apparently according to some in this thread BB was supposed to foresee the future and know Gibson and Tyms would be put on IR and LaFell would go on PUP to start the season and draft Tyler Lockett or Sammie Coates, both who have shown just as much as Chris Harper has in the nfl.
