Is Tim Wright worth a flier?

In his first action with New England he basically ran pass routes from the TE position. It's a flier so it may work, may not. I'd give it a shot over Eifert just due to Cincy have an absolute #1 WR. I'd keep Gates.

I picked him up in 2 leagues that have deep benches.

---

The patriots don't have the same OC as when Hernandez and Gronk were both there, so don't expect Hernandez numbers out of him

plus hes not nearly as talented as
hernandez so thats a foolish expectation for him

I'd rather take a flyer on Richard Rodgers

I don't know to be honest. Brady never looked much at his tight ends unless Gronk and Hernandez came into the picture. I think it was more Brady throwing to his best receivers, regardless of their TE designation. Look at how he never threw to tight ends when Gronk was out. I think that was a matter of them being studs, not the system.

Now that said, I like Tim Wright as a player, so probably worth the risk if you are only talking about a guy like Tyler Eifert.

brady loved throwing to Ben Watson back in the day, he just couldnt catch a cold sometimes

i know, thats what im saying.

especially in that 2006 season.

Manuel

Was literally my only option. Only other guys on waiver are Geno Smith and Chad Henne. QBs get .5 per completion, 5 pt bonus at 300 yds, and 5 pt bonus at 400 yds. They were all gone. Matt Cassel and Josh Mcnown are also there, but at the time I picked Manuel he was the only QB who I knew would start for his team.

you say he was your only options

then you name off 3 better options
