I'd bet he's going to be THAT guy on the Patriots, the one who Brady is going to automatically look for on third down. The guy is going to be a major headache this season.

munchmemory Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Pats have been other worldly finding marginal talent and turning them into stars. Welker, Woodhead, Troy Brown, Edelman, Hogan, Cordarrelle Patterson, Burkhead.....the list continues to grow. Wish the cluster of dicks in our scouting and player development departments (to say nothing about the clowns we have had as HCs/OCs) could have identified and developed similar players for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few on that list are nothing special or JAGs. The rest are between above average - good. They produced at the level that they did because of a superior system, QB, and cheating. We had Danny Woodhead at one time. I don't think we failed to "develop" him here. He did nothing here and went on to do nothing after he left New England. Much like guys like Patterson, Hogan and Burkhead will do nothing after they leave New England too. Our GM's and HC's have sucked. No doubt about that. But its not because they couldn't find or develop their own Rex Burkhead. What works in New England doesn't work anywhere else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Troll Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Wes Welker is going to be a thorn in the Jets' side for years. On a clutch third down, it ain't gonna be Moss or Stallworth that Brady finds.Good job, young me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you talking about? Woodhead was a contributor his whole career and played well every team he was on. Making a role for himself when there was none.

Whoever Brady plays with that has 99th percentile agility times will succeed. That is the skill needed to quickly run all those rub routes.

Sunday was typical Wes. In a close game he doesn't do anything, takeaway his #s when the Pats are running up the score in blowouts and his #s are average. Still not worth the 2 picks and big contract. On 12/19/2007 at 1:26 AM, Alk said: Interesting theory...if it was actually correct. 1st. quarter - 24 - 279 yds. 2 TD 2nd. quarter - 26 - 267 yds. 2 TD 3rd. quarter - 17 - 202 yds. 1 TD 4th. quarter - 29 - 256 yds. 3 TD So statistically speaking the first two quarters are his best. Had to go back and read this classic thread after it was bumped and found a gem: nyjunc--throwing around “garbage time player” fake news since 2007.

Sorry nyjunc--I know this is a bit of a low blow but couldn't help myself when I saw it. Still love ya! You should watch more football. I was dead on about Wes, he was easily replaceable. Nice numbers guy but couldn't count on him in a big spot (remember the super bowl he blew? Or that NE never won with him but they have won 3 since he left like they won 3 times right before he got there). Meaningless numbers impress you and that's ok but Wes was never a great player. I remember when wes was out week 1 of 2009 and rookie Julian Edelman was in his place. I said at the time Edelman did everything Wes did and I was bashed. It turns out Edelman became a better player though his numbers aren't as good so it's hard for some fans to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tough critic to call an undrafted player with 1 TD and 1,000 receiving yards total in his first two years “overrated” way back when. And then after he gets 8,800 yards and 49 TDs over the next 8 Seasons (1,100/6 avg) still proclaiming you were right. What exactly does an undrafted player need to do to exceed your expectations? You thought he was a bum/JAG in 2007 and then he went on an epic tear including breaking Jerry Rice’s records for most 100 catch seasons and most games with 10+ catches. Now Welker was no Rice—and of course I hated watching that little midget rip the jets apart for 5 years—but damn he’s one of the greatest rags to riches stories in NFL history. But hey, at least the man in the mirror thinks you called it right on this one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't replace guys like Calvin Johnson or Larry Fitzgerald, you can easily replace guys like Wes Welker regardless of the numbers. Tom Brady was able to win SBs with average talent around him 6 tubes was, he couldn't win with Wes. Welker never ripped us apart. Tom Brady ripped us apart. Welker basically had one great game against us in all the years be played us and it came in a blowout NE win in 2009. Not counting his 1st yr where he barely played on O. He played 16 games against us. He had only 3 100 yd games, he scored only 4 TDs, had more than 7 recs one time. But yeah, he tore us apart? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
