It appears as if the Bears don't want him anyway. (LOL)

Would you roll the dice on Justin Blackmon ?
The Patriots have a history of rolling the dice on high risk and high reward players.
Rotoworld is reporting that the Jags have moved on from Justin Blackmon who needs to apply for reinstatement after missing 2014.

Reports have Blackmon spending a lot of time in rehab and if reports are correct he should qualify for reinstatement.
Blackmon is a former top 5 pick who has a ton of talent and nobody has ever questioned his on field commitment. He has been called a jerk off the field, but didn't Corey Dillon & Randy Moss also have questionable pasts?
If Belichick was willing to roll the dice on Albert Haynesworth, why wouldn't he give Blackmon a shot, if the price was right?
I've been a vocal supporter of bringing Blackmon in assuming the points you make in your post are met. Undeniable talent and potential reclamation project. Sounds awfully similar to Randy Moss (albeit, nobody can replicate what Moss did).You know my thoughts on the WR position. If Blackmon's sober and willing to make some assurances, I'd be all over the idea of the Patriots making a move for him.
