I think that's more Belichick's philosophy. He want guys who can play multiple roles within the offense so he can run a no-huddle with shifting looks.

Most people would look at a top 4 of Deion Branch, David Givens, Troy Brown and David Patten as pretty underwhelming, but they got the job done in '03 and '04. a) the game has changed, though. scoring and passing is more important than ever b) troy brown/deion branch is a much better 1/2 than what the pats have right now assuming they go QB in the first round, they definitely have to attack WR on day 2 Edited March 15, 2021 by Turnobili Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmart128 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 This Patriots WR core looks pretty bad. They are over spending on everyone. Smith was only player that is any good and they overpaid for him as well. Its funny eatching Patriots panic. They are just hurting themselves for future years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The league and has changed since that time. And you don't have Brady to tie it all together. If Agholor is your de facto #1, you've got problems.

BroncoBruin Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Lot of money tied up in a bottom 5 receiving corps. I guess they are paying to just not be actively horrible there, which I guess they’ve achieved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
