I haven't checked these numbers, but earlier today I heard that Brady threw 600+ passes last year and I believe he said 522 of them were targeted to Welker, Floyd, Hernandez, Gronk, and Woodhead. SOMEBODY's going to get a lot of targets this year, or else they're going to run the s**t out of the ball.

I don't know how the Patriots just proceed as if it's business as usual. I think they'll make some revisions to their scheme. They did that when they added Gronk and Hernandez and moved away from Moss. I think they'll be forced to do it now. Maybe it will mean more of an emphasis on the running game. We'll see. But you don't lose all that talent (primarily at TE) and just plug in guys to do the same type of thing. There's a reason why Gronk and Hernandez were viewed as elite fantasy options. There aren't many guys in the league who can do what they do. Honestly, I can think of only one guy and that's Jimmy Graham.

No love for Witten, V. Davis, Keller, Gonzalez, Finley??? I know Finley is an underachiever but he has the tools. Keller has only ever had Sanchez for a QB Eifert should prove worthy as well.

I could definitely see the Pats making a move for a pass catcher....

Reports now saying he's being looked at in connection with a double homicide in 2012?!
