Player Signing Kendrick Bourne Officially a Patriot

These tweets from Bourne indicate two things to me, that should be obvious but people keep trying to refute:

1) Former players who had beefs with Belichick (like Welker) still talk up the organization to other players.

2) One sub-500 season was not enough for New England to lose its reputation as a winning franchise.

another guy with an Eagle Scout attitude who runs slower than my grandmother and has explosiveness like Humpty Dumpty

I totally forgot Wes Welker was a receivers coach in san Fran.

I'm liking this signing already..

careful. NKeal Harry said all the right things in his interview..

until he couldn’t get open

randy moss also ran a 4.29 in training camp at 29 years old and 6’4

Bourne is 6’ and runs a 4.68

Kendrick Bourne 40: 4.68
Wes Welker 40: 4.65

Stop worshipping speed. It's not everything, especially for a slot receiver.

Except Bourne can get open 667 yards last year and a favorite on 3rd down from Jimmy G.

Welker had elite YAC and elusive ability.

We paid Bourne a lot of money for a guy who is nowhere near a game changer. For a few million more, we could have gotten a game changer like Will Fuller or Kenny Golliday

Jimmy G is no longer on this team, we traded him for a bag of peanuts

And Bourne has great short area quickness measurables, and was a favorite 3rd down target of the QB we developed here. Oh, and he had Welker as a coach. He may not work out here, but you weren't arguing the points above, you were using speed as some catch-all indicator so you could use the really clever grandma joke. But speed is poor indicator of slot receiver effectiveness, so you moved the goal posts.

But since speed is king, you must LOVE the Agholor signing, right?

I do like Agholor but i was hoping we would be our number 2 signing and we would go after a number 1 like Golliday. Agholor Is not a number 1 Wr, but a good number 2/3.

bourne is a JAG. his comparison is Mohammad Sanu. Enough said!

What??? Davis Mills, the QB they're calling unathletic, ran a 4.58

How can this kid be a whole .100 slower than Mills?

Bourne was running those routes and getting open not Jimmy G. Not sure of your point

speed/athleticism is important when you don’t have it in any of your receivers.

Harry was a colossal bust. It forced us to overpay for two free agent WRs

I look at bourne similar to meyers as a complementary Player. He has great effort, reasonable salary, is physical and competitive. I like what I saw from him. He should be a solid number 3/4 given agholer meyers and edelman. And he comes from a heavy run offense so i like it.

If we draft Waddle all is forgiven. I think we need a game changer In order to beat a team like KC. waddle Is that game changer.

 

[yukon cornelius]

Pats know how to beat KC

long, sustained drives that result in TDs are part of that mix, not getting into a track meet with them......

Agree about waddle. A number 1 would certainly do well for the team esp bourne could face "worse" cb's then cause waddle and agholor would face the better ones. But still having good reliable WR like Bourne who fits us well as N. 3/4 is solid.

Did you notice the words "younger" and "healthy"?
