England's No. 1 wide receiver need, but he's certainly well rounded and exactly what the Patriots will be looking for. Jones has great size as he stands in at 6'4", and he uses his size to physically abuse opposing defenders. He gets off of the line...

Only two full-time starters, Wes Welker and Deion Branch, face expiring contacts. The Slot Machine, the NFL's leading receiver, is a near-guarantee to be re-signed in some capacity, with the franchise tag a legitimate option for the team if long-term...
Patriots are in desperate need of depth at wide receiver. They've been relying almost exclusively on 30-year-old Wes Welker, who finished the season with the second-most receiving yards in the NFL. Their No. 2 wide receiver, Deion Branch, accrued less...

It may look like (Indianapolis is a weak team) on TV, I promise you, but the things that we're seeing, seriously, there's some things that you can see on film where it's a mistake here or there that's costing them the game
Their whole team's the best ... They got all the best players. (Tom) Brady's the No. 1 quarterback. Wes (Welker) is the No. 1 receiver. Logan Mankins No. 1 guard. Deion Branch No. 1 receiver. They got a great team over there.
This shows you what kind of teammates you have, with guys always coming to help you support the cause ... This is what makes us a team.
It was a play that (Brady) made with his feet ... Tom doesn’t get a lot of credit for keeping his head up and getting out of the pocket and making plays, and that’s what he did.
Overall we did a great job of staying composed on the sideline and making the right adjustments and doing pretty much what we game planned for
We have to get back to starting fast like we did in the past
