Sanu was, at-best, the 4th option on a run-heavy team (Bengals were 26th in the NFL in passing attempts).

LaFell, was the 3rd option (higher when Edelman and Amendola were out) for a pass-heavy team (Pats were 5th in the NFL in passing attempts).

You're right about some of the differences, but we disagree about LaFell not being productive.

He went 111-1468-7 in 27 games as a Patriot, which averages out to 66-869-4 per 16 games.

Those stats are nearly identical to the season MLJ just had, and both were 3rd options.
