Jabar Gaffney Released

[The Goat]

Brady didn't target Ocho much last year, which I found weird. He was open quite a lot in games a watched, including the SB, but again the ball just didn't go his way much. So I wonder if the rapport has been slow to develop? If Brady wanted him gone I think Bill would do it, so maybe we'll see Ocho get more work this year. I actually think he's pretty adept at creating space and getting open...it's not all about speed.

I don't think the trust factor was ever there between Brady and Ocho. NE's offense runs a lot of option routes, both guys need to be in sync. Ocho just didn't get up to speed quickly enough.

Well said...that's what I had in mind. Who knows if he'll get there? Talk about competition in training camp lol there's a dozen or so WRs!!
