Ian Rapoport reports that even though the Patriots re-signed WR Julian Edelman earlier today, there are expected to be in the market for another a receiver.
We posted our Top 50 Available Free Agents list not too long ago, which includes eight receivers.
Emmanuel Sanders, Santonio Holmes, James Jones, Sidney Rice, Brandon LaFell, Kenny Britt, Lance Moore and Miles Austin are all available right now.
The Patriots have shown interest in Sanders in recent years, but recent reports mentioned that some teams have medical concerns regarding his feet.
LaFell visited with the team, so there is some interest there. The Panthers are reportedly discussing an extension with him, but it would be that hard to price Carolina out of the bidding for him.
Rice and Britt both offer size and upside, which is something that the Patriots could probably use now that they have Danny Amendola and Edelman back for next season.
