Last year’s theme: “We all we got, we all we need.”
Sounds like you’re advocating for this year’s theme to be: “I all I got, I all I need.”

So we currently have better than Aiyuk?? Get your head examined if you think we do.

You're better than Aiyuk when he goes on walkabout and no one knows where he is.

I'm at the point that I think even YOU don't believe the **** you post.

No. But I didn't make that argument either.

They get AJ like I expect for them to do then none of this matters.

But if they go into next season expecting for Doubs to be their number 1 then ya, they failed.

But you still haven't told anyone what they should do instead. If the asking price for Brown stays too high, what alternative do you suggest?

I'm not here to tell anyone what to do. That seems like maybe more your thing?

You're not new here. You know how opinions work.

Brown is going to be a Patriot. I've been saying it for months and months and months all the while taking downvotes left and right over my claims that diggs would be gone in his place.

Halfway there.

Not sure why you or anyone else are concerned on why I think Doubs is a 3 over a 2. It ain't that serious.

You’re all over the map.

I bet you thought this was a gotcha.

It was over when you acknowledged he isn't a 1.

It’s not a gotcha, I honestly don’t even know what your argument is.
He was signed as a #2.
So your argument is that if he is by default our current off-season #1 until we acquire Brown, (which u say we will), that it’s a bad signing because he is at the top of the depth chart on May 11, but ultimately won’t be our #1 by seasons start?

So if I got this right, you shouldn’t sign a number 2 before you sign/acquire draft a #1. That is effectively what you are saying.

My argument was we have a 2. We need a 1.

Is that not clear for you? Is that too convolted? You can make an argument that we have three or four number twos.

It doesn’t matter what number you assign. Prior to the Doubs signing we did not have a chain mover, middle of the field guy to replace Diggs.
Boutte excels in the deep 3rd, Hollins is a good blocker who makes some plays at the 2nd and 3rd level. KW is a wildcard, we’re not sure what he will be yet.
Doubs fills a role that needed filling, and he got a contract that is commensurate with his skill set and production.
If we were to acquire Brown as you think, that makes the Doubs signing even better.

Doubs will be a pretty good number 3 here. Just wait until they get their guy. You'll be much happier.

When you specifically invoke Jerry Rice's name, you are implying that Doubs is Jerry Rice and posters are not happy here because he's not Jerry Rice. Pretty simple. You can't avoid your own words.

I just said Doubs looks like a #2 WR and you agree that he's a #2 so where was I wrong in asserting that? Again, you haven't done anything to refute that.

I wasn’t implying anything. Never in a million years would I equate Doubs with Rice. You’re inventing something that I didn’t say nor mean. But whatever, I was making a joke so it’s not worth creating an argument over it.

To your other point…you said Doubs “could” be a WR2 and I said that, in fact, he is a WR2. There’s a difference. Why would I refute that Doubs is a WR2 when that was my original assertion?

So you admit. He's our 1. Got it.

Does every team in the league have a “#1 receiver”? I don’t think so.

dliverey44 · Mar 11, 2026

I believe the folks that are questioning the Doubs signing have based their analysis on his final stat line and not the actual guy on the field. I keep seeing that he only caught XX balls for XX yards, but GB much like our offense spreads the love so to speak. I do not care if he is a #1-4, whatever the hell that means, as long as he can win his matchups and catch the ball. On tape he is a guy that can do that, he has been a volume WR and a decoy when needed.

I would strongly urge people to actually watch film and then decide how he might be utilized in the offense. After watching him I am highly encouraged by what I have seen. Do I think he will be a #1 WR and my answer is on some plays he will be, but there is the beauty of the offense we do not rely on one guy or at least I think that is their plan.

Dallas who has 2 #1 WR types finished the year with 266 ypg and the Pats finished 250 ypg and both teams had 31 pass TDs. Dallas also had had 120 more pass attempts. Honestly a #1 WR doesn't sound that important. I am pretty sure everyone would agree that JSN is one of those guys, but in the SB he had 4 catches on 10 targets for 27 yds.

Yes, the team has decided that they prefer Doubs over the next 2-3 years to Diggs.

Of course, potential legal issues may be part of their decision-making.

This. Important to remember the folks making decisions have more information than we do about stuff like legal issues, and more importantly what way the wind is blowing in terms of potential punishment from the league.

But I rather liked Diggs

Who's the Patriots number one, bud?

It's like you're purposely distorting the facts.

You are confusing a WR1 with the patriots no1 WR. If we hadn't signed Doubs Boutte would be our best WR but he wouldn't ever be considered a WR1 and Doubs is being paid as a WR2

When I discussed this with you you said Boutte was the same player as Doubs. Even though Doubs has better stats.
Now you are saying Doubs is no way a 2 and is a 3. And say Boutte is the 2. How can that be when Boutte has worst stats. If Boutte can be a 2 with inferior stats. Why can’t Doubs be the 2 with Superior stats
At the end of the conversation you said now that he is only making 17 million I’m good with the money and agree he is a 2. Your all over the place
