Patriots Sign WR Brandon LaFell to 3-year contract

[Keegs]

Lloyd caught 74 passes and had 911 yards in his one season. He's not on the team because of psychological problems, not because he wasn't a good WR. David Patten caught 165 passes, 16 TDs and 3 SB rings in his 4 years in NE. You are talking out your arse.

I'm beginning to understand why you are so bitter, upset and critical.

Nice 2-14 season for your team last year. Sucks for you, eh?

Here in paradise, there is a reason why we are so optimistic. The sun will set, the sun will rise and the Patriots will win somewhere between 12-14 games in the regular season and have a shot in the tournament.

Meanwhile trolls from 2-14 teams that are second fiddle in their own state (by a LOT) will continue to come here and throw mud on subjects about which they have knowledge.

someone just got the taste slapped outta their mouth.

Is JJ Watt still spitting on the 50 yard line logo on opposing teams' fields pregame, and then folding like a cheap suit when asked about it after the game ...? (when he did jack ****)

How many drops last year vs targets...or was it already posted?

And there are still people on here that will tell you they'd rather have Tate at the 5 years/$31 than LaFell at 3 years/$9m

I think that Tate was overpaid significantly myself. I think he benefited greatly from the fact that SEA won the Super Bowl, and was somehow thought of as a significant free agent. There's also the fact that the WR market was mud this year too.

2010--21 catches 227 yds

2011--35 catches 382 yds

2012--45 catches 688 yds

2013--64 catches 898 yds

Those don't look like stats for someone who should be getting more than 6 million dollars per year AAV, aside from the fact that he's improved in each year. I suppose they feel that he has potential that hasn't been realized yet, but the same argument can be made for LaFell just as well.
