Stallworth a FA

[NoNonsenseCoach]

The Pats didn't pick up the option on his contract and Dante Stallworth is now a free agent. A dumb move without Moss signed?

[Matt McGuire]

No. It's why I have the Pats taking Earl Bennett in the 2nd, I knew they couldn't resign Stallworth, which wasn't a big secret.

Schefter says the Pats and Moss have a verbal agreement to come to a contract. I believe this and it makes sense to let Stallworth go and bring in another WR in the draft or see if any of their guys develop.

[NoNonsenseCoach]

Alright, then what do you think Chad Jacksons role will be with them next year? Can he take the #4 WR? Will he see the field at all?

[tonynyy]

This was obvious, Stallworth was gonna make some huge money this year. However, I don't see us taking WR early, we have Chad Jackson in his 3rd year, where WRs usually break out. Plus, with Moss and Welker on the team, he'll get single coverage all game, which will make him look good.

Stallworth gets hurt too much...I don't think he's as good as I once thought. Does anyone think he could become a donimant #1 in the league?

No I don't. Stallworth will not perform well out of NE and will no doubt be asking for more money than he is worth. Look for some cashed-up desperate team to sign him, I just hope its not Denver. That being said, a team with a very good QB good use him effectively, but those teams (with elite QBs) could probably make use of half the forum posters here in some way.

I have no idea if Jackson is any good or not but i play conservative and say he is a bust until he does something.

I mean come on it isn't like the Pats need a #1...all he has to do is catch the ball.

But I don't buy it and say the Pats need to draft at least one offensive player in this draft. Welker and Moss are older I'd even say WR might be one of the Pats top 3 needs.

What are the odds he signs for the Redskins?

The amin reason for not picking up the option on Stallworth was the huge bonus...

[NoNonsenseCoach]

Maybe the Bengals when 85 is gone.

Bad move is undermining it, don't you think? I would define this between horrible and catastrophic
