Agree/disagree: LaFell is better than Cotchery, Underwood, and Avant

[AceBoogie]

Gettleman has won 2 Super Bowls & went to 5 as an assistant GM/director of scouting...

Including kicking Belichick's ass in those 2 Super Bowl victories...

Nice try, though.

Lol even the towel boy gets a ring. Belichick won those Super Bowls as THE guy and it took Gettleman 30 years to even become THE guy so let's hope off his sack until he at least has back to back winning seasons.

i wouldn't take lafell over cotchery or avant.

 

lafell was ok, but very unreliable and on the whole just average. there's nothing special, meaning dynamic, about avant and cotchery, but they are reliable. they are clutch. they are also provide great leadership on and off the field.

i had enough of lafell's drops, esp. in key situations. there were far too many excuses made for him. those excuses don't have to be made for either avant or cotchery as far as reliability is concerned. cotchery provides a better red zone target for cam (an  i'm not referring to size) and avant is a first down machine. both are more polished than lafell, which they should be because of their age, but avant pretty much came into the league like that. he's the closest thing to a ricky proehl-type receiver that we've had since, well, proehl.

 

i don't know enough about underwood so i'll give you that, but lafell better than cotchery and avant? nah. at the most it's a push, but when you factor in what he's getting at new england and what avant and cotchery are getting here, it pushes him right off the edge.  as far as value, there's no question in my mind that both avant and cotchery are better values and better receivers.

stupid thread is stupid.

Pretty obvious he isn't. That can be based on basic visual perception from watching him play, or how his drop% was significantly higher than JC or Avants. Sure LaFell had potential but doubtful he ever realizes it.

I disagree that  LaFell is better than Cotchery, Underwood, and Avant.

I'll take Cotchery over LaFell any day, even at 32, which he'll be soon.
