Here is a list of WR that we may want to consider...

Did we get any news on Dobson at all? Is he headed to IR?

As far as additions, I like the Collie suggestion but if he's in the CFL then that's probably out the window. I wonder if there's any chance the Pats let Reggie Wayne keep his playbook and just said "study up, we'll call you back later." I don't think that's likely though, or else they would've called him by now with all the injuries that have hit.

He saw somebody let go of a balloon. He's been circling under it for weeks.

I hate to say it, but uhh... Where's Josh Boyce at?
 
I predict our receiving corps going into Denver is Moss, Owens, and Rice. Unstoppable.
How about Allen Iverson? His quickness would be deadly.
 
No matter who we might sign, we likely enter Denver with WRs LaFell, Harper and maybe Martin. I think it is asking quite a bit from Brady to cobble 20 points from the fossilized remains of our offense. The real hope lies not in signing a street free agent but that Collins can replace Freeny so that whatever offense we can muster will be sufficient.

Nonetheless, we need help:

I agree that we should have four healthy WR's on the squad. So, we do indeed need help. We will have issues against Denver, especially if Gronk is still ill.
 
Hate to be a homer, actually I am not cause I don't watch the CFL but I wonder how seriously they look at the CFL in circumstances like this. I get it, it is the CFL but there may be another Matthews in there somewhere...
 
Tom Brady would probably kill Avery by day 2 of practice.
 
I hope we sign dri archer.. He ran 4.26 at the combine and was recently released by pitt. He has a very similar skill set to lewis albeit in a poor mans way. But i would love to have someone like him as a replacement for lewis.
 
Those names clearly force the question why not Randy Moss? I mean Collie over Moss.. People listen to Felger too much about Randy. If Randy moved the chains a few times a game it would be huge. I say call Moss.
It would likely take him the rest of the season to even get into game shape. Pretty sure he hasn't been frantically working out, just waiting for a call.
 
Any chance we can get Thompkins off of the Jets practice squad? You would think Collie could be enticed from the CFL. Chris Matthews is intriguing but apparently stupid and with attitude. What about Moss or Deion Branch again?
Unless he went to the practice squad this week, Thompkins is on the active roster. He caught one ball against the Bills.
 
TERRELLE PRYOR The Patriots showed interest in Pryor after he was cut by the Cleveland Browns earlier this season. The former Ohio State quarterback moved to wide receiver this offseason with the Browns and showed potential in practice, but he has gone unsigned on the open market. Pryor has the most potential among available wideouts, but the question is whether he would fit the “Patriot Way.”

GREG SALAS Salas spent part of the 2012 season with the Patriots and played under current offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels with the St. Louis Rams in 2011, when he caught 27 passes for 264 yards. Salas most recently was with the Detroit Lions this summer. He was cut Sept. 15 with an injury settlement after hurting his knee in the preseason.

JARRETT BOYKIN The Patriots worked out Boykin earlier this season after he was cut by the Carolina Panthers out of training camp. The 6-foot-2, 215-pound receiver has 57 career receptions for 731 yards. He had his most productive season in 2013 with the Green Bay Packers, with 49 catches for 681 yards and three touchdowns.

AUSTIN HILL The Patriots cut Hill from their practice squad Nov. 10. He went undrafted out of Arizona and spent training camp with the New York Jets. Hill might not be an option for the 53-man roster, but he could provide depth from the practice squad.

ACE SANDERS Sanders’ 10-game suspension for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy was lifted last week. The former Jacksonville Jaguars fourth-round draft pick is a free agent and has 57 career receptions for 539 yards with one touchdown. He might not be worth the headache, but the Patriots could be desperate for some talent.

AUSTIN PETTIS Pettis, like Salas, has experience under McDaniels with the Rams in 2011. The Patriots worked out Pettis earlier in the season, but the wideout has gone unsigned since being cut by the San Diego Chargers out of training camp. He has 107 career receptions for 1,034 yards with nine touchdowns.

DRI ARCHER Archer officially is listed as a running back, but given his diminutive size, he could be used as a slot receiver. Archer, who stands 5-foot-8 and weighs 173 pounds, has seven career receptions for 23 yards. He caught 99 passes at Kent State for 1,194 yards with 12 touchdowns.


I'd go with Boykin.
 
The most talented WR of all time IMO Randy Moss. I'm ok with 2-3 catches / 30 yards per game.

I hope you are more ok with him not being here
 
I want fried chicken...and a pony!
 
Randy is just not a good player anymore. Its nothing personal and he is is a all time great and all that but he couldnt play 3 years ago and I am sure he was in better shape then.

I would rather have Jabar Gaffney back
 
Chris Matthews is my pick.

If he could torch us with Wilson throwing him the ball, I'd love to see what Brady could do with a big target.
 
I want ...

 
Does the Patriots still have any $$$ to sign a free-agent?
 
what about Donte Stallworth?
