Will we use that roster spot for a guy who will only catch a pass or two here and there, and make no other contribution or use the spot for a more serviceable player? Patten was signed as a free agent, Jacobs a 2nd round DC, which player has the most up-side long term for the position and salry?

I agree about the 4th WR needing to play teams. Patten has done that before and I think they were planning on working him into the special teams mix before he got sick.
