I just stumbled on something and this is a complete whim and long shot but who knows...
Watch the first minute of this video with Teddy Bridgwater and they show 5 passes. 4 of them to Jarius Wright, and look at the different places he makes the plays. It is all over the field. A quick hitter for a td, a seam route a sideline route. I get there are no pads on but he is making plays with the new franchise QB and this is a new regime.
Every year players come out of no where and you don't see it coming but when you look back at it there was signs pointing to it. Edelman, Welker, Cruz, Colston etc. Wright last year in his second year only got 43 targets but did manage to catch 26 passes for 434 yards and 3 td's. Nothing great but maybe he ends up turning into something viable. Jennings had 4 td's on 104 targets just for comparison sake.
Now Wright is a little guy, but perhaps he is a possession guy with the new regime and maybe him and Teddy work well together. Anything is possible, just throwing it out there. I mean he can be had for a bag of potatoes so he is worth the long shot roster spot if you have room.
Here is the video. Wright makes 4 nice catches in the first 1 minute and 10 seconds of that video. He is number 17. It is worth the watch.
