Ask: Dimitroff, who presumably will have a similar philosophy to our guys here, cuts him. Why? There has to be some issue.
Saying, let's go get him, considering our cap situation, the fact we already have 4 TEs on the roster, and that someone our guys taught cut him seeming for some unknown reason is enough of a yellow-flag for me.
I wonder if he was too close to Michael Vick.
Alge Crumpler is 100 times the player Ben Watson will NEVER be. I will be shocked if we didn't pursue him knowing how BB love TE's.
The Patriots don't need Crumpler. Anyone who's watched the Falcons recently could see that he's fat, slow, and drops alot of balls. He was Vick's favorite (and only) target, but now that Vick is gone he isn't the same. Watson is better and Thomas will be far better.
How can you say that Thomas will be far better than Crumpler....Crumpler has got it done in the NFL maybe he has got overweight as you said but I would say it is easier to lose some weight than to prove you are better than a Pro Bowl TE.
Being overweight in the NFL tends to be a show of chronic laziness. He also drops alot of easy catches. More than Watson does. Pass.
