Picked him up last night after the blurb he got worked out. Glad he signed great end of bench stash i think!

Although i do think hes insurance for Hogan and not sure he even starts

NE offense looking like a dumpster fire more and more, Brady is the glue. Hope he doesn't hit the wall. In Dynasty I want nothing to do with this team, the end of an era is in sight.

He’s better than a back end stash like Darboh right?

What about the offense is any worse than 2016, 2014 or 2011? New England for the last decade (or so it feels like) has trotted out mediocre/old WR with some type of RB committee and still won multiple Super Bowls lol.

Brady's always elevated the game of the players around him, unless he completely drops off, 2018 probably won't be much different. :D

I'd rather hang onto Darboh

I think it completely depends on what you expect from that stash and how you play the game. If you're looking for future starting potential and upside, I'd prefer Darboh. If you have ZERO expectation but you're looking for a possible flex spot fill in a pinch this season or a guy you can get for free and flip to a NEP nut for a 4th I'd lean Decker. Either way you are likely to be able to use up Decker and then add Darboh back to the end of your roster.
I'm the guy who is constantly churning the end of my roster and I'm extremely active looking for trade opportunities so for me the the later scenario is in my wheelhouse.

Good points. I think I’ll hang onto my guys and see what develops. Baldwin injury helps Darboh and LaFell cut does the same to Tate. I don’t have an easy cut, plus in a 10 teamer, starting Decker ever is unlikely.

Darboh is supposedly on the roster bubble....clearly, there are 4 preseason games for him to show out but that's not too peachy of a situation.

Granted, the days of Decker putting up 800+ yards with 10 TDs probably ain't happening but anything's possible with Brady and when you factor in Gronk's/Hogan's and Edelman's injury tendencies.

And I'm the type of owner who scoops up a Darboh if you drop him because I prefer the upside with the back end of my roster.

Guess it depends on whether you want to believe and ESPN reporter or the head coach talking him up. I'm the first to say that Carroll is one of the most disingenuous coaches in the league so I'm not sure what to think other than wonder why I should be taking the word of a reporter as opposed to a team source.

Just about as likely as starting Darboh or Tate. :wink:
But you have a point. In a 10 teamer, you would probably be best served to focus your energy on upside guys.

Dez was spotted at NE training camp yesterday, I wonder if this would change any potential signing. I can't believe Decker is the better player at this time, perhaps terms were the problem.

Im thinking they don't want to bring a diva in, Dez's personality really is hurting his brand.
