Wideout Andre Roberts has drawn interest from several teams, according to ESPN’s Dianna Russini (on Twitter). The Patriots, Falcons, and Lions are among the teams eyeing the free agent receiver.
Roberts had a disappointing first season in Detroit, finishing with only 14 receptions for 188 yards and one touchdown. The 29-year-old’s best season came back in 2012 with the Cardinals, when he finished with 64 receptions for 759 yards and five touchdowns. The wideout also has nine career carries for 77 yards.
Roberts would presumably slide in as the Patriots’ fifth wideout, or he could potentially replace Danny Amendola in the lineup. He’d be competing with Devin Fuller and Nick Williams for snaps in Atlanta, while Detroit would presumably continue to use him behind Marvin Jones, Golden Tate, and T.J. Jones.
Focus on Hightower first please then worry about the smaller additions
The pats need to worry about Hightower 1st then Jimmy G trade(maybe package him with Amindola) then move onto Butler for Cooks trade
Yeah not quite sure why they’re so anxious to replace DA unless he’s refusing to take yet another hair cut and they feel all the WR’s will be signed first.
Never a dull moment with BB wheeling and dealing.
