The Patriots’ receiver race will come down to how many they want at the position. If it’s six receivers, New England most likely will choose between veterans Branch and Stallworth. Branch brings leadership and dependability, but he’s been injured much of training camp. Stallworth has the deep speed New England wants to add to its offense this year.

With Stallworth’s recent dropsies I’m starting to lean back toward the reliable Branch. And now that Gaffney’s hurt and in street clothes today who know how that will affect things.
