Patriots | Team acquires Gabriel from Oakland
Sat, 2 Sep 2006 13:02:21 -0700
Jerry McDonald, of ANG Newspapers, reports the <A href="http://www.kffl.com/team/28/nfl">Oakland Raiders have traded WR Doug Gabriel (http://www.kffl.com/player/6263/nfl) to the New England Patriots (http://www.kffl.com/team/24/nfl). The compensation for Gabriel has not been announced yet. The Patriots, with starting WR Deion Branch (http://www.kffl.com/player/1202/nfl) in a rancorous holdout, were in the market for a receiver.

I think I may pick him as a late round sleeper in my fantasy draft.

If you're looking for the production from him that the Pats got from Andre Davis last year, he's your man.

If you're looking for the production from him that the Pats got from Andre Davis last year, he's your man. he was going to be Oakland's number 2 ahead of Jerry Porter but now Prter will become the number 2 and Ronald Curry the number 3

The good news is he's got about five practices to pick up the Patriot offence befor the Bills play the Patriots.

This guy is a playmeker---

If he plays and starts all 16 games,he would be a 70-80 catch receiver.

Luckily for the pats,the raiders are stacked at receiver,or else he was not going anywhere.

And this guy is a much better route runner then andre davis--

I just grabbed him for a fantasy team. He smoked the Bills last year.
