Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Brown is currently an unrestricted free agent. He would like to play in 2007, although his health could ultimately be the determining factor if that happens. The Patriots have stocked up on receivers this offseason, with Reche Caldwell, Bam Childress, Jabar Gaffney, Chad Jackson, Kelvin Kight, Jonathan Smith, Donte' Stallworth, Kelley Washington and Wes Welker all under contract at the position. ... Despite that, Globe staffer Mike Reiss still believes Brown could still be part of the mix moving forward.
