Patriots Sign WR Kenny Britt (Edit)

Linebackers.....Linebackers.....Linebackers.....

Along with OL and interior DL. And big wr would be a huge asset to have in the redzone if defenses take away Gronk.

I dont see OL as a dire need. Solder is not going anywhere

I understand Dorsett is regarded as a bust due to his lack of production, but I think his presence has an impact on how other teams cover Cook on deep routes.

I watched Britt out here in Cleveland and, as someone said earlier, he was terrible and had an attitude problem (not unusual playing for a bad team). That said, he did show signs of the ability that the Browns signed him for. The Pats need size at WR, so BB is willing to take a shot on Britt. All these late season acquisitions, however, show a team that still has holes to fill due to a rash of injuries to key personnel. Not a good sign going into a crucial game against the Steelers.

I don’t think Britt has anything to do with the steeler game.
I think it has little to do with anything about the players we have and it’s just that B.B. sees a player he thinks can play and there is no reason not to bring him in, just like Floyd, who was brought in in case of injuries and to audition for next year.

Well hopefully we hit on Garcia and it’s a nice transition at LT. Thuney has me worried on the interior. And pressure up the gut has given brady problems more than anything.

My OPINION is that he did well against Miami last season. Hell of an effort for the td and one of the best downfield hits I’ve ever seen.

Release Feeley and Jordan Richards or is Van Noy on Flowers going on IR?

Agree.

BB does these things in waves. I have confidence in Thuney, Andrews, Shaq and Cannon. I think Solder will be back because his child is getting elite care at Dana Farber and Children's Hospital.

Garcia or whomever they bring in to be the swing tackle or such they'll be fine.

They've had a talent drain on the front 7. They need to replenish it.

Your rating of any player is your opinion.
His production is a fact, that he wore #14 is a fact. He sucked is an opinion.
I happen to think he did well in his role as a last man off the bench replacement here last year.

Curious as to why Belichick would pass up such a big, talented, physical specimen who had mastered the system here, if you’re anything close to correct. I mean, those guys have pretty much grown on trees throughout his tenure here, right? Surely, we have no use for someone like that.

If you think that going on to MIN to catch 9 balls isn’t “sucking,” then I’m not sure what to tell you. That’s pretty much the definition of sucking. There’s really not much opinion to it. He’s sucked over the past two years. It’s a fact.

I seriously wonder what receiver people expect to come available in December?

Nice straw man.
However the answer is obvious
Edelman
Cooks
Hogan
Mitchell
Amendola

Because everyone either sucks or is outstanding and masters the system right? No in between.

again you need to kearn the difference between fact and opinion.

 

[Deus Irae]

Perhaps. But even so, a jet sweep to White? Dorsett wouldn't be a better choice for this play?

That's been a Cooks thing this year, actually.

Malcolm Mitchell.

Kenny Britt 2016 highlights

I wouldn't mind seeing someone suck like that for the rest of the season

 

[RayClay]

Malcolm Mitchell.

I meant a veteran receiver who was much better than Britt. Is Malcolm ready to roll physically? Got some inside dope?

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Agree.

Agree. The more I think about it definitely need a few picks on the front 7. A coverage lb and branch’s replacement at DT. The guy I want from Georgia at Lb Roquan smith will unfortunately be long gone by time we pick

I know.
And of course no one knows if he is ready, but he seems to think he is based upon social media

I don't know a lot about Britt. I definitely like his size, my question is whether he makes use of it? We could really use a big receiver to fight through tight coverage.

I hope he can be a contributor but he first needs to learn this offense on very short notice. Britt has a serious disadvantage this late in the season. Guys have spent entire offseasons here trying to learn the playbook and still failed miserably. He's got a tough task ahead.

I think you may know more than I do on the player but they'll have enough draft capital to move up the board.

He’s a top 10 talent. Whether he falls like Rueben foster did remains to be seen but it’s hard to imagine bb making that kind of move up to get him. Weve seen small moves up the board in the past for Hightower and jones but top 10 would likely cost our first and the niners pick
