The obvious answer is Gabriel, but Jackson is an exciting young talent, and Caldwell could see a little more action his way too.

 
I voted Gabriel BUT history always has shown that the ball is so evenly distributed its never worth owning a WR/TE for the pats. To me theres no such thing as a number 1 on thier team. Even when Branch cleary showed he was the best WR they had the ball still got evenly distributed and Branch was a feast or famine fantasy player.

:goodposting: I still think that one of these guys has to become Brady's favorite target. That being said, one of them should turn into a decent fantasy option for bye weeks and the like.
 
Not even us homers can answer this question for the future. Until Gabriel or Jackson get up to speed and step-up in games, Brady will continue to lean on Brown and Watson. Troy Brown will make a decent fill in at WR3 some games, but he won't be consistent enough to start every game. Let's remember this is the Patriots led by Brady, there really aren't any great fantasy options. Branch was the closest thing to that, and he even he was marginal at times. At this point I would say Brown continues to be the WR that Brady looks to the majority of the time. Once Gabriel catches up with the playbook/system he will serve as the deep threat. However, the best fantasy numbers will still most likey come from Watson by year's end.
