CSNNewEngland.com's Tom Curran reports the Patriots will sign WR Torry Holt, formerly of the Jaguars. The Boston Globe seconds the report, citing a league source.
The Patriots have a habit of signing veterans looking for a last chance at ring, so it's not surprising that 34-year-old Holt would land in New England. It's not a great fit, though. Julian Edelman can hold down the slot until Wes Welker returns, and the Pats need a playmaking receiver opposite Randy Moss. The signing shouldn't preclude them from adding a receiver early in the draft. In fantasy terms, we prefer Edelman to Holt as a potential WR3 this year.
