I think they'll be a ton of threads about every wide receiver cut that has ANY possible chance of being signed...First it was Troy Edwards, now Rashaun Woods..Don't you think the Patriots have guys in mind they are waiting and seeing if they get cut??? Or better yet ones that MAY be cut who they coould trade for?? I tend to think they absolutely know what they want in a WR and have their eyes on a few of them...that is of course IF Branch does not end his hold out. I think Friday evening will be a wild time if Branch balks and refuses to return...and I have a gut feeling he won't. There may be some interesting speculation of who is on the bubble on some of these teams..and who the Patriots might want to lead the WR corps. A vet?? Would they bring in more than one?? There could be a big deal in the makings that will make it clear that this team is going to make a run at the Lombardi again. Certainly, it will be a receiver with speed and maybe a vet who only has a few years left in the tank. (I think of the move the Patriots nade after Stingley was injured...bringing in Harold Jackson to yeam with Stanley Morgan.) I would like Branch back, but PLAN A is in his hands...and this is one EZ pass he has dropped.
