As for the the bust talk, the QB coach Godsey has been in NE working with the offense, so he has seen Mallett's progress since he was drafted.

At the draft was he worth the rumored 2nd round, not likely. And we replaced NE comp pick in 2016 had they kept him and not played him.

Yep and while Mallet gets up to speed (4 to 8 games maybe), Fitz will have his opportunity to cement his starter's role or lose his starter's role.....
