I think Patten gets a bad rap because it seems to be the popular thing to say that Tom Brady has done so much with no wide receivers. But Patten, as part of a committe of receivers, has put up some pretty decent numbers and maybe he and the other Patriots' receivers should get some more recognition for what NE has accomplished these past few years.
As for Mike Williams being the BEST WIDE RECEIVER IN THE ENTIRE DRAFT, it's possible but interesting to note that he apparently wasn't considered good enough to be the first (or even second) WR taken in the draft
