Talk about giving defensive coaches nightmares.... Putting a 5 WR set on the field that has Moss, Stallworth, Welker, Gaffney and Caldwell in it...
Or a 5 WR set with Moss, Stallworth, Watson, Welker, and Caldwell.
Or 4 Receiver set with Moss, Stallworth, Welker, Watson, and Faulk as the RB.
everyone here vastly overrates Gaffney. he is the definition of "replacement level". the guy was literally on the street when we picked him up, he is NOT better than anyone else's #4 wr.
Caldwell was deemed expendable by a team who doesn't have good WR's. he's not much better than JAG.
Remember you said yesterday that Moss and Stallworth was just a "wet dream" of mine? Good luck to opposing DB's guarding the Pats recievers.

I think Washington is going to be given every chance to beat out Caldwell and Gaffney.
It's hard to believe, but BB goes out and acquires Randy Moss, Wes Welker, Donte Stalworth, and Kelly Washington and people still seem to think he was impressed with the contributions of Gaffney and Caldwell.
Probably because those much maligned receivers had the team on the verge of returning to the Super Bowl. Last year's receiving corps was not a great one, but it would have been good enough to get the team to the Super Bowl if the defense hadn't collapsed in the second half.
I'm thrilled that the team has added the receivers it has, but that doesn't mean we should crap all over those who gave this team their all last year.
Well I don't think it was Caldwell and Gaffney that got us to the verge of the Superbowl, but you're right - they were our receivers. I don't think they're good enough to start in this league and only put up the numbers they did because they had Tom Brady at QB. I am very grateful for their efforts, though and am not crapping all over them - that was Keegs, I believe. I'm sure the Pats are grateful too. Hopefully, they'll garner us a draft pick and not simply get cut.

Did you even watch football last season? Gaffney was great. He was clearly the best receiver we had by the time the playoffs rolled around. And that, without the benefit of an offseason with the team.
Judge the facts of what you see, not by what the rest of the idiots in the league think.
By your logic, Tom Brady would be selling car insurance in Cali today.
