so the Pats have 9 WRs in camp in Wes Welker, Julian Edelman, Deion Branch, Brandon Lloyd, Donte Stallworth, Jeremy Ebert, Matt Slater, Jabar Gaffney, and Jesse Holley. Welker and Branch were decent starters were good for them so they're safe. Brandon Lloyd and Jabar Gaffney are personal favorites of Josh McDaniels so I think they're safe. Slater is the Pats best special teams player so he's good. Edelman's the Pats kick returner so he's probably safe.
I don't see the issue here. Hell Danny Woodhead was an absolute stud in college; he just went to a D2 school. He's one of only 3 players to win the Harlon Hill Trophy (D2 Heisman) twice and was a finalist all 4 years in college. He has the 2nd most all-purpose yards in NCAA history and was the 2nd player to ever score 100 collegiate TDs.
Danny Woodhead was a DOMINANT college football player. He just wasn't invited to the combine or senior bowl. At his pro day he ran a sub 4.4 40, which would have made him the 2nd fastest RB at the 2008 Combine. He missed his rookie season due to injury, but his first preseason game his second year he rushed for 158 yards (the most in a preseason game since 92) and 2 TDs.
Woodhead was picked up after the Pats traded Lawrence Maroney and Kevin Faulk went on IR. So even with all of Woodhead's achievements, he only got picked up when the Pats needed a RB.
Hard Knocks did not get the Pats to pick up Danny Woodhead. Danny Woodhead's collegiate career, hard work, and need got him picked up
