Because I've watched the games.
Who really cares if it's not flashy names?
I don't care about flashy names. I care about Tom Brady getting and the New England Patriots winning the Super Bowl.
They are getting it done big time, LaFell went 11 for 11 today.
And he had 1 catch on 4 targets against the Bengals. What's your point?
Tim Wright is on the rise,
No, sadly, he's not. The numbers on that are abundantly clear. There's still time for him, obviously, but to say he's on the rise is simply not true.
it's like Edelman is an afterthought now.
Edelman was targeted and had some drops. That doesn't make him an afterthought. He just had a 9 catch game against Buffalo two weeks ago, in case you'd forgotten.
For what we have to give up for VJAX, I just don't see how it's worth it.
You don't know what would be given up, so you really don't know what you're talking about here.
There's no guarantees, we don't even know if he can play in this offense, and if he can ... what are we going to do?
There's no guarantee that both Gronk and Edelman will be healthy for the playoffs, either.
Start forcing balls to him for no good reason?
It depends on what you mean by "no good reason", I suppose, so this point is really just an unresolveable opinion.
If we are going to make a move it should be on the defensive side, or we should get a RB.
At least that's a meaningful opinion. Of course, the issue then becomes one of finding that RB, and one of asking why only one move can be made.
I rather have a reliable RB come January than VJAX. I have confidence in this group of receivers to get it done
This "group" of receivers (and that includes both WRs and TEs) is currently 3 deep. It's ridiculous to think that can't be improved upon, or at least shored up in case of injury. Now, if you can find talent at DL/LB/RB/S2 that fixes problems there, but precludes picking up Jackson, THAT's when "rather have" matters. Until then, it's meaningless.
