I think the less we see Edelman punt returning the better....it is physical contact he doesn't need
You know, I've heard this before and I don't really get it. Are there punt returners dropping all over the place? I mean sure, he could get hurt there just like he could on a receiving play. But punt returns are sort of important. And he's really good at it.
I mean, I see the point about not having, say, Gronkowski blocking on a PAT. But Edelman & punts seems to be working pretty well.

And who do we have at WR if Edelman gets hurt that inspire confidence??Amendola??? I hope we don't come to that. Edelman is now a legit WR someone else should take up that slack. Wouldn't mind him back there for a spark or for a important fair catch situation but that's it.
I am a little confused by the move. Maybe it's conditional upon the kid making the roster but I don't see how that's possible, there's only one game left and it's not like the bottom of the WR depth chart has been bad (Harper's looked great), and they just signed Wayne. Maybe they think Saunders is more pro-ready and they want to put Harper on the practice squad for a year? I just don't fully understand the move.
IMO, this is may be the end for Cadet. His shot at a roster spot was mainly as a returner IIRC since White and Lewis are looking decent so far as third down backs, but with Saunders specializing as a returner, don't see the fit for Cadet.
Meh, this is almost certainly a week long audition for a player the team is interested in having on the PS. If the Patriots had enough healthy bodies to play this week, they likely wouldn't have made it.
It would be nice to have an explosive returner.
It's tough thought when he's got a career ypr of 12+ equal to Devin Hester.....I think the less we see Edelman punt returning the better....it is physical contact he doesn't need, and he is far too important.
I would only want to see him do it if everyone else was terrible and a liability...far too much risk
trading for a bunch of guys that wont make the roster.
williams, that TE named cleveland, now saunders..why???
These idiots and their due diligence and attempts at maximizing the value of a pick through trade for a better-known commodity make me so angry!
my bad, i will never question bill's methods ever again.
im still a member of the BB fan club!
