I’m just saying I wouldn’t of got rid of any young talent or a player who as promising in college or in the NFL prior to Mayo,
I love what Vrabel is building, but Thornton should be here over Polk,Baker, Bourne, Hollins.
Young tall explosive WRs don’t just fall in your lap we traded up to get him.
But that's the point. He WASN'T explosive. I remember seeing him contribute ONE explosive play his entire Pats career, and that was a RUN (reverse sweep).
I loved his stats coming in, but the fact remains he never showed any of that 4.2 speed on the field. It always surprised me. Guys as fast as that just "look" sudden. He didn't.
