Why is David Patten on this team?

Can he return punts? Can we swap Patten and Thrash's roles?

Are you saying you want Thrash as #2? Cause that's a mistake. I'm not impressed by either of em, but I have more faith in Patten than I do in Thrash. I didn't see the pick, so I can't talk about that, but he made a decent play on a 3rd down (maybe 2nd) slant route. I just don't think either are a great fit.
