JC Jackson still a RFA. They're still a uncertainty about Gilmore.

Excellent! Our most important FA signing besides Jackson.

11 LBs on the starting defense.9 LBs now? BB making sure last year doesn't happen again
11 TEs on the starting offense.
I think BB could make it work.

He had very good numbers last year as a outside threat , one of the best for yards per catch.
He’s better than anyone we have, and can be quite goodZ
Yeah, he’s not a pure #1, but in this offense he will have plenty of opportunities .

He's a solid WR2. There were no WR1s available in FA. Not Golladay, either.
But here's the thing, other than Moss, BB has never employed a WR1. He'd rather rather have 2 WR2s than pay for 1 WR1.
Look at Julio - great player but his cap is $23M this year. Agholor, HHenry and Jonnu Smith combined are less than that.
Sometimes we should be thankful for what we get and I think this is one of those times.

People will not be happy with BB pickups. Until he trades up to get a Top rated QB.

Majority just hate Cam. Won't stop trashing BB until he's fixes it

I personally think Cam is going to surprise people this year and be better than most thought.

What possible reason is there to believe this? I know he's going to have a full off-season, upgraded weapons, and no Covid, but why else?

Your reasons are definitely part of it. Plus another year in the system. And another year for Josh to design more appropriate plays.
For me the big thing though is the way things started last season. I remember watching those first few games and feeling a lot of optimism as he grew in the system.
But then covid.
And after that he just wasn't the same as he was in those first few games.
I think it will also be a boost to his psyche that BB is giving him another chance. The upgrade at TE, combined with a strong running game will open things up for him.
I could of course be completely wrong about all of it.

If he was playing great and then came to the Patriots and played bad, those things might mean more to me. But he was not playing well before he got to the patriots, he has struggled for the last few years. He has always had some issues that probably wont go away in the passing game. He has always been a better runner. I think I would be a bit hesitant to change the entire offense for a 33 year old QB with injury issues who might only be one more year in the league. Because then what do you do when he is gone? Gap filler, or play until we find something better, or have a rookie sit and watch the game till he is ready? Fine by me, if Bill has plans to change the entire team to suit him based on his history, I would have an issue with it. I think the covid thing is being way overblown because he didnt get better as he got further away from covid, he got worse.

I don't "hate" cam, I just do not think he is very good, and I fear his injury history because frankly his success comes from running the ball. So no I do not want him as a long term QB. Get a drafted kid in here and learn him the ways of the force.
