I've been saying for awhile that the Patriots could really use a guy like this, particularly after missing out on Stevie Johnson. If LaFell goes down, they are in big, big trouble. They need another true outside WR, or else they'll need to lineup Edelman, Amendola, or Gronkowski as their outside WR. None of those guys are built for that position. Glad everyone still has fantasies about Dobson and that he's having a good camp, but in my best guess, he is in Brady's "don't throw to" list during meaningful games which is hard to come back from.
Outside receiver as a backup/depth guy who will be used in some spread formations is a good investment.
