I think the love affair with ocho (In reguards to him coming to the SKINS), is over.

I don't think Ocho has much left in the tank.

Re: Jabar Gaffney Released

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!!

I liked him while he was here. He and Smoot...oh the memories.

He is? Wikipedia says he got released by the Pats in 2010, and I don't think he's signed with anyone since.

Re: Jabar Gaffney Released

I'm pissed we couldn't get anything for Gaffney and the patriots of all teams get him for nothing and sign him to a two year deal. I'm sure we asked them for a pick and they said they didn't want him then we release him and they probably were the first team to call. We should have held on to him until training camp when other teams starting getting injuries and losing WRs so we could have traded him for something. Oh well.

We saved $2million in cap space and don't have to monitor his Twitter account any more. That's something.

Maybe we can finally lock up Hightower now.

Re: Jabar Gaffney Released

It's the right thing to do to give him the professional courtesy of finding another team. Of course if he was worth more than a potential late round pick in August, that courtesy wouldn't have been extended.
