when you are one injury away from possibly having Dorsett as your number 1 WR I would call it a lot but not jam packed

Are you imagining some scenario where Edelman and Harry injure each other that makes Dorsett the number 1 WR?
 
I think Thomas will have more receptions for us that any we not named Edelman.

Normalized to receptions per game I think you might be right. Cumulatively who knows when he will actually join the team in practice and then on the field.

If he can come back from injury, he can be a good deep threat. He’s not going to burn anyone with his speed, but he can grab a bunch of balls with his size. He or Gordon can be good replacements for Gronk in the passing game.
 
First, Edelman is currently injured and on PUP.

Second, I think it somewhat presumptuous to consider a rookie WR as our #1 or # WR before even one reception in the NFL.

Who was the last rookie WR to be #1 or #2 for the patriots? More likely is that Harry will learn a few roles, and hopefully learn them well.

Sure, today. We're talking about the regular season, yes? Otherwise what's the point?

I think it's clear he's #2 based on pedigree.

That's really unfair to the kid. A rookie - especially a rookie WR here - should be no higher than #4 on the depth chart. Even when Edelman returns, he & Dorsett & Harry are only 3/4 of a top 4 that clearly lacks another top-4-caliber receiver. We need a Big Dog.

Ideally he is the #3 WR but Dorsett is not a #2 so we need a #2 and he isn't here yet unless Gordon returns.

I think he’d be something close to what David Givens was in 2003. Somewhere around 35 catches. Not necessarily a deep threat, but maybe more of a possession type of receiver.
