WR Rishard Mathews requests release from Titans.

Can he get separation with man to man coverage?
 
Disagree. Patterson has special teams value. I suspect it'd be Dorsett.

We are talking about WRs not gadget players. Patterson has no value except in KR and there are more options for that. He is not even a real football player.

Special teams is an important part of the game and no one appreciates that more than Belichick.

Belichick sees football players and he will keep the guys he thinks gives them the best chance to succeed, special teams considerations included.

Watch the .gifs you posted by Lazar of Brady missing open players. Patterson was in those plays on at least two occasions.

If you want to argue that Dorsett has value that's understandable but I don't understand the flak Patterson is catching.

You don't need to teach me of ST value for BB. I am aware. The reality is that CP is not even playing 50% of the ST snaps. His value there is limited. We are not talking core ST like Bolden used to be or Ebner now.

It doesnt matter how open he gets if Brady doesn't trust him. And since he keeps running wrong routes I doubt it will ever get to the point where Brady actually trusts him outside designed plays.

This is less about CP and more about Brady. I would rather bank on the player that Brady keeps targeting than the one who gets ignored even when wide open.

But that's just me.
 
Can he get separation with man to man coverage?
Last year he could. I haven't really watched him this year post injury and recovery to his knee, since there hasn't been much to watch (hence him asking for and being granted his release). So there's definitely some uncertainty there, he wouldn't be available if there wasn't. I gotta figure he's worth bringing in and seeing how he looks at least.
 
Worth it imo, need death at that position

Not really. It would be one thing if he was in every return unit, but he's not.
 
I think Magua is one of my favorite villains. Such a bad ass......until the end..
Magua had become totally consumed by his need for vengeance and had become warped into the kind of man who made him that way. I think everyone elevated their performances in that movie to match Day-Lewis. Next time you’re jogging, listen to this one...

 
It would be Patterson if they're going to cut a WR at all.
Patterson got some touches in the return game last week. I thought he showed enough potential to be worth keeping around for more.

Good stuff!
 
@Miguel - With Rishard being a vested Veteran, I know that his salary is guaranteed. That means that Tennessee will be paying him the $5M. If the Pats were to sign him for the Vet Minimum, he would still get the remaining $5M from Tenn, correct?

Well, yeah, if the D plays like the last two weeks he'll be busy.
