Have opinions of Phillip Dorsett changed?

[QB12]

He’s improving but I’d like to know if Gordon was on the field when he made those plays. If he was, Dorsett benefited from coverage that had to account for Gordon.

 

[Wheelman]

He dropped the ball.

Have opinions of Phillip Dorsett changed?

• Loved the trade.
• Knew he'd take time to get going, because of his late arrival.
• Love what I'm seeing from him this year, except....
• He's got to get better at the "defensive side" of playing WR.
• With any luck, he'll be WR2 level by the end of the season, but not yet heralded enough to be priced out of the Patriots' range.

His blocking, and that of the WR core in general, has been a nice surprise.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Mines been the same, hes nice as a 4th or 5th option and will get you some nice grabs, cant forget the big grab he had in the afcc that helped us come back. Hes not going to be a consistent source of production though maybe a 600 yard guy, less if gordon really catches on and gronk/Edelman dont miss half a year or more.

It will be nice if him and brady can finally click on the deep ball though, they did come very close today and it should have been caught.

 

[TheBeers]

Dorsett was good today, the TD catch was amazing, the long drop was absolutely a drop. I think he continues to get better and sticks here. As others had said he won’t price himself out of our market

 

[Patriot Missile]

Yeah, he is a serviceable wr and did his job. 2-4 games now. Gonna need some more time to really see how he does.

Defintely thought he outplayed Hogan today although they were playing different roles.

 

[mcmurtry86]

Even bad players make nice plays once in a while. He's fine as a #4 WR. As a starter, he is awful.

Kenbrell Thompkins was romanticized for a few big plays in his rookie year too and was equally terrible as a starting WR. One somersaulting catch does not make him a good player (same way one awful drop does not make him a bad player in and of itself)

His route running and hands are mediocre at best and he's weak without explosive feet so he struggles to create the instant separation smaller framed Pats receivers need. He can't play inside and can't beat the press outside. He's a mediocre zone beater when other guys are taking up the opponent's best defenders. He'll be out of the league in 2 years most likely.

Rushing success and an extra quality WR on the field freed up space for all playmakers.

Miami's depleted DL was the point of origin for all their issues on defense.
Tannehill was the point of origin for their offensive issues

Next week, Dorsett should see even more space once Edelperson plays

 

[RobertWeathers]

He's fine. Not great but not terrible.

 

[TheBeers]

If Dorsett can continue what he’s doing he’s going to be an excellent complimentary piece to this offense. He looks like a slightly faster, less reliable Deion branch

 

[TBR]

I've always been optimistic regarding him and his potential for a high quality #2-#3 WR. I think he still has room to improve before he gets to that point.

His hands have looked pretty good, so that deep-ball drop was a surprise.

 

[Palm Beach Pats Fan]

The stench of being a Colt in the past is finally fading a bit.

I agree. He’s improved a lot since last year. Maybe he continues to get better.

Just not too good or he is outta here

 

[ScottishPatriots]

He's an ok 4th option in the passing game.

 

[IllegalContact]

He's fine. Not great but not terrible.

Nothing special or kinda special?
