Patriots OC Bill O'Brien wants to get 2nd-year WR Taylor Price more action going forward.  ”He’s practiced well. We need to get him in there more,” O’Brien said. ”He’s done a good job in practice. He’s a guy that we’ve got to give him more reps in the game.”  Price made just 3 catches last season and is sporting a goose egg this year.  He's worth monitoring but isn't deserving of a roster spot in redraft leagues.  At best, he'll be New England's 5th option in the passing game this season.  O'Brien's desire to get him more snaps is another damnation of WR Chad Ochocinco though.

WR Taylor Price got the start Thursday night, with Wes Welker, Deion Branch, Chad Ochocinco and Brandon Tate among those who didn't play. The 2nd-year man responded with 5 catches for 105 yards. That included a 50-yard reception and an 11-yard TD. Price played in only the Week 17 contest as a rookie and will need help to gain relevance in 2011. This game should serve as a reminder to the dynasty crowd, though.
