quite significant loss for Texans

They still have a legitimate #1 in Hopkins though not the end of the world for them.

I will say this don't know if it's still Crennel but if the Texans DC doesn't consistently double Gronk he's an idiot. Taking Brady's first read away already minus Edelman can make him very uncomfortable in the pocket. Brady is still human wish they had invested a little more at the position. I Don't expect it to be pretty early on at WR.

 

[PatsFan2]

Unbelievable.

Has any team received LESS from their draft classes of the past 3 years than this one?

Feckin disgraceful.

No wonder the QB hates his HC.

There Player Personnel Department need you Scout cap.

Or it can give him some very wide open receivers.

Or it can give him some very wide open receivers.

And if I'm a DC I wouldn't double any of these Pats WR until they prove they can beat man coverage.

Like I said in the other thread the loss of Fuller is actually pretty significant in terms of bodies we can keep around the box in case Watson actually is close to himself. This really makes life a bit easier.

Vyncint Smith was playing Div 2 ball in my hometown of Gaffney, SC this time last year. But he ran 4.36 on his pro day.

Gilmore man to man on Hopkins press coverage and have help over the top. Loosing will fuller is massive help for us in this game. I can see us going run heavy these first four games

With Fuller out, we'll be doubling Hopkins at the minimum. That means Watson is going to have to do with his #3/4 options

from Reiss:


In a sign that Belichick seems pleased with the work that pass-rush consultant Joe Kim has done since joining the team in the spring, Kim has stuck around now that the team is in regular-season mode. Second-year defensive end Derek Rivers credited Kim, a martial-arts expert, with helping the team’s rush become more consistent as well as defensive line coach Brendan Daly. “He’s definitely brought something new to a lot of our games,” he said. Kim has worked with 11 different NFL teams over his career, beginning with Belichick’s Browns in 1992.
