Don’t love it, but worth bringing him to camp. I bet he retires by the end of the off season.
One year at a time.

I get the feeling we are going to see Gordon's return sooner rather than later....but that's just a feeling based on nothing....so lets run with it.
We've heard that Gordon is done forever. We've heard Gordon could be cleared to go by TC. We've heard everything in between.
So, what's the truth here. I HAVE to believe that the Pats, at least. have an idea of what's going on in that warped evil mind of the commissioner. I wonder why some intrepid reporter hasn't wrangled some more definitive info on the subject. Though looking at the manner the Pats have run their WR off season, I get the feeling we are going to see Gordon's return sooner rather than later....but that's just a feeling based on nothing....so lets run with it.
The question isn’t whether Gordon returns it is how long will it be before he slips up and gets suspended again. They may get some production out of him but they will never be able to count on him.
how about giving the freakin' guy a chance...
With Gronk and Allen gone, and with the state of the WRs, I wonder if the Patriots have given any thought to the idea of gambling heavy on TE/WR in the draft, letting the draftees fight it out with the veterans, and deciding just how heavy they'll go with WR v. TE based upon who shows out during the offseason. It's not as if they can't just dig into previous year's plays to find plenty of plays with 4 WR sets, after all.
It would make the offseason a lot more interesting to follow.
With 6 out of the top 100 picks (okay, 101), there’s no reason to think they won’t address either/both WR and TE, even if they trade down or into next year.This makes sense, but BB will probably pick an OT, a DT and a safety, then trade out. There’s also last year’s JV, uh, I mean, injured reserve, players to throw in the mix.
Sounds exactly like something someone would say about Gronk and injuries every offseason.

My assumption is they are depth pieces.Signing both Demaryius Thomas and Seferian-Jenkins is, unfortunately, an indication of just how bad the situation at WR and TE is for the Pats. If either or both of them can stay on the field and live up to their full potential, It is a great move. At least the contracts are short, low risk and not too costly.
I'm betting when the Miguel gets the info on this contract, the signing bonus will be under a Million and only 2 will be guaranteed and he will have make the team before he get that.
I don't see a single downside for this trade.
Watching Thomas is like watching Manning at the end of his career, he’s done. He can’t get separation and Brady hates throwing to receivers who are covered. I’m fine with brining anyone in but if they are counting on him it’s another story. Slow and as soft as they get.
The Pats signed a WR for 6 million. This proves they were never against the cap
The downside would be you are wrong on the guaranteed money, but I think you are close.
It's all risk/reward, not whether some media guy or forum poster thinks DT's lost a step and can't get separation.
Slight difference between getting injured and getting suspended every season. But you can see it any way you want.
Thomas has history with McDaniel's offense, great size, and stellar production throughout his career. As long as he and Brady are on the same page, I'm not all that worried about separation.
