I bet he's on a plane ✈ to Detroit you lucky Matt Patricia.
 
Who was the poster who was arguing Harris was going to dominate for us this year?
 
Originally thought we were keeping him - as I figured neither Gordon, nor Thomas would be available this early...
 
He started off really well. He’ll hitch on somewhere. Health is such a big part of the equation obviously. Especially when your trying to latch on to a new team that brought you in to take a look.
 
A big question is who dressed week 1 provided everyone is healthy. I would suppose that all things being equal it should be Edelman, Gordon, Thomas and Harry who dress while Dorsett and Myers sit.

Some will be surprised for Dorsett to sit after preseason game 3 but he usually did end up sitting with Gordon around. You certainly don't want to sit your first round pick in Harry as you want to get him up to speed with Brady ASAP. That leaves Dorsett or DT. You certainly want to see what you have in DT if medically he has the green light and he has a heck of a lot more upside than Dorsett.
 
Edelman, Dorsett, Meyers, Gordon will be active. Harry and Thomas inactive.
 
I think they start with 6 WRs but will drop down to 5 once Watson returns. Think Thomas may be inactive the first game or 2 and we'll see if Meyers is worthy of being on the roster all year.

Of the 4 guys you want to start, 3 haven't caught a pass from TB during TC or preseason. It appears Harry may be hurt worse than expected since he hasn't practiced much since the injury.

The only WR that has actually caught TB passes and we know is ready is Dorsett, so why sit him, plus his catch % is very high. DT is a complete unknown.

I would go with JE, Flash, Dorsett, and Myers/Harry depending on Harry's condition. Give DT time to acclimate with system and TB.
