Alright, I haven't posted in awhile but that's because it just flat out takes too long. Anyways this is a just a brief comment after reading ESPN's tuesday morning quarterback on why the Patriots are awesome. Apparently, the money that it would have taken to sign Deion Branch for a long term, has instead been used to sign three wide receivers in Donte Stallworth, Wes Welker, and Randy Moss. So a solid possession receiver, a vertical threat, and a potential Pro Bowler plus the first round draft pick, all for the services of Deion Branch, a receiver who has never caught over 1000 yards. I'm not exactly sure who the Pats swindled here, but even if all three of the guys bomb (which they shouldn't), their contracts expire at the end of the year so it doesn't even hurt cap space.
