Yes

There's a good chance Landry is toast, and Jacas is already missing time already as a rookie.

If AJ starts missing games, let's talk. Right now that's life in the NFL.

The knee issues always look OK in the Spring/Summer but get worse over the season. Unfortunately, we need WR1 mostly in January, not June.

I think the team has more faith in Landry than the posters on this board. I think they're giving him the Morgan-Moses-Training-Camp-Vacation for the summer and expect him to contribute during the season.

Each player has a plan.

You seem really concerned about Landry's knees and Jacas' hamstring, but AJ Brown's degenerative knee issue is fine?

AJB said it's a none Issue.

You expected him to say the issue gets worse as the season goes along? LOL Everyone knows.

Yeah, look at last year, he missed so many games.

He doesn't miss games. If he passes the physical that's all we need to know. And Of course, that can suddenly change. There's always risk.

But ANY WR coming here would have some negative to him. TJ Higgins hasn't been a #1 or Waddle would have been to expensive, or Tyreek Hill a head case. Guys like Jefferson, Chase Lamb, Puka are never available when they're elite.

They made the Super Bowl, they have the hot QB maybe for the next decade, and they built the line. They might still be another year of learning away, but you got to go in thinking you're in this thing.

You're right. The knee might be an issue. But nobody knows how long this Patriots window is, and even though you think it's year two, that's when the great teams of the future win.

AJ seems to have the right attitude, and the upside is he comes in and is the old AJ for a couple of years.. I see no reason that this perceived risk shouldn't be taken.

It is not the number of games he missed, it is how much he slows down. Look at the in-game speed data to understand.

He's played a huge number of snaps, and has had an ACL tear before.

It doesn't look like Moses has ever had a significant injury.

Maybe it is a good risk to take. That might be right. But recognizing it is a risk is important too.

I am hoping AJB makes it 2 years even though he has slowed down already. I am not sure what you mean by the "old AJ". The more recent AJ from the last couple of years that has slowed down is the "old AJ"?

Thank you.

I asked ChatGPT "do you know aj browns in-game speed data from last year" and the specific measurements it gave does not coincide with your statement.

What are you going by?

It’s so interesting how many Pat’s “fans” seem so negative about AJ Brown. It’s almost like they want him to fail, it’s a weird agenda they have. Kinda reminds me of Felger. There seems to be this weird subset of Pat’s Fans rooting for failure.

Don't worry when AJB have some 200yds games; that hasn't been seen around these parts in years they'll come around. The BB steng is still on a a lot them; let's make chicken salad out of chicken $h!t. You want to make a Very Good Young QB Great: get him Elite position Skill Players. Crap look at who Michael Penix Jr. is throwing to.

Are you saying a plan for preparing to play each week will get you punched in the mouth by Mike Tyson? Is this some kind of add on for Hard Knocks?

I would love to see this data, please do share. And it did not seem to effect him last year where he was noticably better in the second half than the first half despite his playoff performance. If true, I would be much more concerned if he was a true speed guy. He is a contested catch monster with great strength and great hands. I do not see that going away anytime soon.

I asked ChatGPT "do you know aj browns in-game speed data from last year" and the specific measurements it gave does not coincide with your statement.

What are you going by?

I typed this into ChatGPT "Has aj brown in game speed data decreased over the last few years?", and the response was:

The most direct “speed-like” signal I found was a public post citing Next Gen Stats-style tracking: Brown reportedly reached 15+ mph on 29.0% of plays in 2023, 26.7% in 2024, and 21.1% in 2025.

I then typed in "What has been romeo doubs top speed in the last few years?", and the response was:

Doubs has been around a 21.1–21.3 mph peak-speed player when measured publicly. That is good NFL WR speed, but not Tyreek/Waddle/DK-level 22+ mph speed.

I then typed in "What has been Kayshon Bloutte's top speed in the last few years?", and the response was:

My best read: Boutte is not a verified 21+ mph NFL-speed guy from public data, at least not in the way Doubs is with the reported 21.15 mph number. Boutte’s value looks more like vertical-route technique, tracking, body control, and outside “X” receiver play, not elite raw top speed.

I did not dig deep into the AI response by quering ChatGPT multiple times or cross-checking against Grok.
