2. James White

James White looked great for the majority of the season, but these last two games he has had some rather forgetful performances.

White has become one of Tom Brady’s favorite targets. He has over 100 targets this season which leads the team. In White’s last two games he only has 11 targets. For a period of time White was averaging double-digit targets a game.

So the New England Patriots need to get James White involved more. He is such a talented guy in open space. White knows how to make defenders miss and move the chains.

If the New England Patriots are able to get White involved it will help the entire Patriots offense. Tom Brady will have someone he can rely on and the other wideouts should be able to get open.

James White is a game changer and needs to be looked at as a major target moving forward.
