Pats to workout WR Mark Clayton Friday

[GostkowSKI]

Per Rotoworld:

Mark Clayton - St. Louis Rams - 2011 Player Profile - Rotoworld.com

I liked him coming out of college, his career high is 67 catches in 2006 for the Ravens.

 

[Rossmci90]

He was having a good year last season until he got hurt, though i think this is more likely trying to light a fire under Tate and Edelman.

 

[Rob0729]

This is a due dilligence move just in case they need a WR during the season. Doubtful they sign him any time soon.

 

[nelsoncroxton55]

He was pretty good for the Rams

 

[LetsGoPats36]

Clayton can play. I'd like to see him signed if he's healthy.

 

[Betterthanmost]

Pass, he disappears like,,, I don't like players who disappear like.. He has made like what 4, 5 guest appearances since 2006 like.

Yes, this is due diligence.

We are all set with our top 3 receivers for 2011: Welker, Ochocinco and Price. We expect 1-2 receptions per game from Price as was the case with our #3 wideout Tate last year.

We have adequate possbilities in our last two positions with Branch, Edelamn and Tate. Surely, they are so vital that no upgrade need be sought by Belichick.

Living in Baltimore, I don't remember much from Clayton on the Ravens (granted I think Boller was QB most of the time). JAG in my opinion especially with the other options on the team.

Let's see how he plays before we assume.

 

[Uncle Rico]

Maybe they just want to thank him personally for that drop in '09.

 

[PATRIOTSFANINPA]

I know Belchick has signed several old guys this month but a 50 year old WR??

That's a hell of an expensive trade then. About $5M for a few weeks of practice. I can't see it happening.

Probably meant "ocho gets cut by his roommate."

I have a feeling that SAS meant Branch not Ocho!

The post that was quoted mention WW, CO and TP as the top 3, missing out DB!

Didn't even notice that!

Random fact: From weeks 6-16 (the 11 games Branch played), Branch out-produced Welker and was on "1,000 yards over a 16-game season" pace. I think people are way too eager to ditch him.

yeah I just don't see that happening. $4.5 million for a player to learn our playbook and practice with us? seems pretty expensive, even in NFL dollars.

I had that "Say What?" reaction reading the thread title.

Clayton, Duper, Marino...

Gawd it's SO much better to be a Pats fan today. Sadly half this fanboard can't wait for Brady to retire so that Mallett can assume his rightful position. Pathetic.

Difference of having Tom Brady and Matt Hasselbeck!

I just figured he was being sarcastic.
