During training camp there was much roster bubble discussion about Brandon Bolden.
I believed then, as now, that he has the potential to be a big contributor to this team. He's big, fast and tough, and he can both run and catch passes.
Now yesterday was nice, and an affirmation of my beliefs on him, and showed just how foolish it would have been to cut him, but let's not get crazy...Canton is still a long ways away.
Still, it was nice to see, and here's to the Pats using Bolden a lot more as the season progresses.
My view is that the more Vereen (later, when back) and Bolden touch the ball over this campaign, the better. I'm not ready to bury Ridley, but between the fumbles and the more tentative running post-fumbles, those two are their best bets, and Blount is more of a depth, change of pace kind of guy, despite the impressive numbers yesterday.
Here's to Brandon Bolden!
