I couldn't help myself...

Don’t kid yourself. We definitely need some help on the wr front as well.

I agree but would rather have seen him address the D first

I’m surprised. But if it happens, I hope the locker room leaders can get him to commit to football.

he won't play this week if they sign him, put the vasoline away folks...

I’m all for fixing parts of the defense but those players have to come available first.

Britt, Coleman, Gordon. Shelton and JMac all played together last year on the Browns. I wonder if the Pats:
Asked Britt about Coleman
Asked Britt about Gordon
Asked Coleman about Gordon
Asked JMac about Coleman
Asked JMac about Gordon,
Asked Britt about JMac
Asked Britt about Shelton
Asked Shelton about Coleman
Asked Shelton about Gordon

This might be like the mingo trade where every analyst will say BB will make him a star .What will actually happen is a lottery.

Aaaand here comes the suspension! /Goodell

So, that means Goodell suspends him right after the trade is made?

If they sign him, AndyJohnson's about face in this thread will be a must read.

Once he's healthy, and assuming his head is on straight (might be a far fetched assumption, but play along), he's going to be a massive addition here. Gronk, Edelman, and Gordon on the same team? Christ.

There must be a 1/2 way house in Foxboro somewhere.....

Belichick's philosophy is if you can get a good player at a reasonable price, you make that move.

They sure as heck didn't need Moss in 2007, but value met cost, and the rest was history.

Zolak was right. He said we were looking into a pro bowl level Wr back in week 1

Hopefully we won't be saying this in a short amount of time (whether we sign him or not!).

Holy crap.

If BB cuts this deal that means he sees the WR position a lot more dire situation than I thought.

Or he sees an all pro WR to be had

Not a guy you can trust off the field but becoming worth the risk given the lack of talent at the WR position and small compensation.
