It's easy, and only takes a few moments.It seems most WR (except Moss, Welker, and maybe Gaffney) that Pats pick-up did better with their prior teams. The list of guys who were either washed-up or did not get it or could not become Tom's play pals is long enough that I am doubtful of ANY new WR addition until proven otherwise. Mike Wallace, Vincent Jackson, Larry Fitzgerald, or even the great Jerry Rice circa 1990 may not be Patriot material.
I know I sound like a cranky old man, but I just find the evidence overwhelmingly against the likelihood that a new WR can break-out with us.
That's the problem..he can't get the offense. It took Moss what 2 hours to get it? Same with Welker, Branch ect.
If he didn't get it last season..he won't this year
Ochostinko is done. Sorry if the truth hurts. To my untrained eye, I was most impressed by Wallace who looked insanely quick. But hey, what do I know?
My mistake guys! Looks like it was a troll account. Mods, please delete my two previous posts. Thanks.

The combination of Mike Wallace and Brandon Lloyd will be tough to cover for teams facing the Patriots.

The Mike Wallace contract with the Patriots has already seen a lot of fan backlash from Steelers and Patriot fans alike.

Mike Wallace's reported deal with the New England Patriots is in the 7 year 130 million dollar range. According to @mortreport
Highlight: Ochocinco 33-yard TD catch
I want to see more of this next year

Per Adam Schefter's twitter: "Breaking News: The New England Patriots are close to a deal with WR Mike Wallace that would make him the highest paid WR in NFL history."
7yrs/130MM???? Even if nothing else clued you in, those numbers should have told you this was fake news. That sounds like a Red Sox contract.
