Julian E isn't a great player but he did it on the biggest stages. I just think his regular season numbers aren't strong enough.

Agreed, but how many 1000 yard receivers did the Pats have with Brady throwing to them?

Wes Welker 4 (07, 09, 11, 12)*
Rob Gronkowski 4 (11, 14, 15, 17)
Julian Edelman 3 (13, 16, 19)
Randy Moss 2 (07, 09)*
Brandin Cooks 1 (17)

*Moss and Welker both went over 1000 in 08 but Brady wasn't playing that year.

Brady was a master of spreading the ball around, and even then Edelman is 3rd on that list.

I agree his overall stats don't match up, but as you say he did it on the biggest stage (playoffs and SB). Though if Edelman is even considered, Welker should be higher in the pecking order.

Edelman's regular season numbers are pretty weak comparing him with other HOF'ers and guys that have been passed over so far.

Just the fact there's a debate out there for him while barely a peep for Gary Clark is crazy.

Gary Clark

Julian Edelman

He will make it because he was a Patriot and won multiple rings.

It's early, and likely a knee jerk reaction. Hopefully these talking heads will come to their senses as the dust settles. I heard Schefty lobbying for him already, just minutes after he announced his retirement. A bit ridiculous really.

No way Edelman a HOFer. Just media talk.

Jadeveon is the most likely to get injured guy. Bruce Allen would love this guy. Only once in his 7 year nfl career has he played all games. Many missed games. A reoccurring knee patella issue that will only get worse. Multiple sports hernias that required surgery. Back issues. He should retire.

Clowney to the Browns 1 year 10M

Garrett and Clowney could be a good combo

Better than Garett + Vernon + Richardson? IMO not as big an improvement as some media faces are making out. Cheaper yes, but not incrementally better than last year.

[MTK]

When Clowney is healthy he can be very disruptive. Definitely a good combo there, again assuming he can stay on the field.

Dave Gettleman prioritized Devontae Booker, thinking Giants can’t have too many running backs

Great job here by Gettleman
