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

Can't see us signing anyone who wasn't at least in camp seeing reps with the O. Not enuf time for a noob to learn the playbook and gain Brady's trust. Perhaps Gibson? Is he with another team?

Hope Harper gets some reps this week

Why not Fred Biletnikoff?

Gibson's on the Patriots' IR.

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.

Austin Pettis, saw him in Boise and he looked promising, not sure what happened to him since....
I'd like to have us take a look at him....but I doubt he is in the Pats radar atm.

A 2008 second-rounder who's been a total bust and is now out of football. He played with Brian Hoyer at Michigan State. I think he should have stayed another year in college. He had size and speed and skills. I don't know why he has been such a disappointment. Detroit kicked his tires two summers ago. Didn't work out. Why not another try if he's in shape? Oh, I'm talking about Devin Thomas. Devin Thomas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Its Time to Sign a WR

UPDATE:

SMH guys..

Just close my thread. I am dealing with this loss in the worst way right now haha. Its a Monday dude, work sucks and we got hosed.

/thread

My Apologies

Yes, I know Brady had 3 TDs yesterday. We also started in Bronco's territory (basically) on those drives.

I am proud of Keshawn, I believe he will play better in the coming weeks. He will stay on the field and be productive.

Chris Harper looked scared on the field and completely out of his element. I am unsure that he will get any better this year.

I don't really care who, but we need to call someone.

Randy Moss
Santana Moss
Me
T.O.
Dane Sanzenbacher
Austin Collie
Robert Meachem

I know everyone above is probably garbage, but there is no way in hell that anyone can convince me that Chris Harper is better than a 50 year old Randy Moss. I just don't believe it and see no reason at all, why we can't work someone from the above list out.

It is laughable right now that Tom Brady can even compete in a game with who we have left right now.

VrabelJr · Nov 30, 2015

Ummmm yeah it's week 12. Lock it up mods.

HeadHunter · Nov 30, 2015

5 Games to go, and if all goes well everyone we have injured will be back healthy for the playoffs. Just don't personally see the need.

Amendola should be back next week. The Broncos have a really good defense, it was never going to be easy to move the ball on them. LaFell + Amendola + Martin + Chandler is good enough to win the rest of the games against a cupcake schedule (barring the two road divisional games to close out, where anything can happen).

Onedaful · Nov 30, 2015

In my opinion we don't need a WR we need a cohesive O-Line and better RB depth. If our O-Line doesn't open up holes effectively we have some of the worst RBs. Our RBs are extremely dependent on line play, obviously that applies to every RB but it seems more-so for guys like Blount. We need to have teams respect the run and we need to move the ball on the ground.

I think we're all feeling your desperation. But have you taken a second look at the list you posted? I'm sure someone will say that there are people that would be better than Harper and blah blah, but I doubt it. Meachem is the only one that sorta intrigues me, but all of these guys are washed up and, other than Moss or maybe Collie, would not pick up the offense in time to be significant in the immediate future, which is precisely why we would sign anyone at this point. But you're definitely welcomed to try out. I would, but I couldn't find a flight cheap enough. LOL

supafly · Nov 30, 2015

I think it'd be very difficult if not virtually impossible for someone else to come in and pick up the system at this point in time; otherwise, I'd be all for it.

A guy like Moss isn't going to be able to replicate those underneath routes for us, though. Maybe Collie, although he's under contract with the CFL.

PatriotsPimp136 · Nov 30, 2015

Why not give archer a look? Couldn't hurt

Yup, and that's what made Lewis so special. The O-Line, which I happen to believe is certainly above average when it comes to run blocking, didn't necessarily have to open a hole for him to create. Blount, Bolden and "that other guy" need holes opened for them. Blount is just proving to be a guys who is only good in certain games, not the workhorse we hoped, and maybe even believed, he'd be. That other guy won't get his name back until he does something more than fall after the first contact and be uninspiring in the passing game.

Kdo5 · Nov 30, 2015

I'm not too concerned about the position once we get Amendola back and don't lose JoJo or Martin again (which seems to be asking for a lot this year).

patsfan13 · Nov 30, 2015

Not enuf time to get a new WR in sync with Brady and this O.

Hope we get some players back Jerry a Rice isn't coming through the door.

Bourne Again Christian · Nov 30, 2015

Dri Archer cant believe he isnt on a roster.
Just get him in space.
I would cut Assante Cleveland for Dri Archer yesterday

brady on next man up today
Tom Brady on D&C: ‘I don’t think I’ve ever been so visibly pissed off after a loss’

On seemingly always finding ways to replace key players: “I don’t know that the ‘next man up’ thing — you’ve got to have really great players out there. The guys that are out there I certainly have trust in, they just have not had a lot of experience. You’ve got to try to develop confidence with the guys that you have out there, and the guys that aren’t out there that have played a significant role on our team, hopefully we’ll get them back at some point and we’ll be that much stronger for it.”

Angelpats · Nov 30, 2015

Blount, for a guy his size, can't make any gain unless he has good blocking or a head of steam. Last night was frustrating, especially on one drive where he was used exclusively and we failed miserably.

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