We need Gordon to get his nose clean for good.
His choice.So Golden Tate, who should've been a Patriot from Day 1, will now never become one. Sad.
Eff him. I’m sick of hearing about him for the past year.His choice.
I see WR trade for a vet who has a "signability issue" coming ala Cooks plus drafting a WR mid round or maybe in the 3rd if someone is there they really like.Really need to hit on 2 WRs in this draft. The cupboards are down to a box of Mac and Cheese.
Eddie Edelman is up in years and Dorsett 26 is on a 1 year deal Hogan might be back but he was almost invisible at times last season. Gordon is too erratic upstairs. Sure would like to have better recieving weapons than last year.

Yeah, I hate to sound like a "in bill we trust" guy, but his way has kinda worked. A lil bit, anyway.At what point do you learn that we have way more history than necessary to know they know what they are doing, it will work out, and we don’t have a game for 6 months?
Relax. Enjoy the success rather than trying to the first one to guess there is a failure coming.
Seriously we have the GOAT and no one besides White and Edelman for him to throw to. It's like having a sports car that never gets taken out of the driveway.
Sign Demariyus Thomas. Not sure if Dez Bryant is under contract with the Saints but if he can play at some point this season after recovering from ACL, he'd be a nice pick up. If Josh Gordon is back, I think we might be okay.
Jules
Dorsett
Thomas
Gordon/Bryant
Berrios
This lineup would have been so much scarier few yrs ago. Brady has played with far less talent before.
I trust BB and the system. I am not yet concerned/worried about our offense.
Edit: I forgot Cobb and Jordy Nelson. They are not in their prime either but are good route runners, especially Cobb.
I actually stated Cobb is a good route runner.I didn't specifically state that about Nelson. We may not even sign any of them but if we were, I'd prefer Nelson and Cobb over Bryant.Gotta appreciate how your last sentence is calling Nelson and Cobb bad route runners but a few lines further up you are curious about a player in Dez Bryant who can't run routes, can't separate, is not mentally tough at all and has spend the entirety of last year recovering from a devastating injury.
Nelson is actually pretty damn good at running routes. He'd be close to the perfect fit imo especially as an outside option.
So is Tate.Every one of them is now a has been.
10 WRs in 9 years.Pats did not want to pay that much salary to a free agent WR. Looks like we are hoping to draft a WR and overcome our 10 year curse at that position.
Pats drafted WRs since 2009:
Julian Edelman, Brandon Tate, Taylor Price, Jeremy Ebert, Josh Boyce, Aaron Dobson, Jeremy Gallon, Devin Lucien, Malcolm Mitchell, Braxton Berrios.
Yeah, not exactly a list of successes there in an entire decade of drafts outside of one notable exception.
Josh Gordon is obviously playing next year so y’all need to chill out
