Another receiver. Why not?

The Patriots and rookie receiver Jeremy Ebert, who was drafted in the seventh round, have agreed to terms on a four-year contract, according to Aaron Wilson of Scout.com.

Wilson reports the deal is worth $2.148 million and includes a $48,200 signing bonus.

Ebert is part of an extremely deep Patriots receiving corps, so the chances of him getting any legitimate playing time any time soon are slim to none.

The speedy 5-foot-11, 200-pound receiver out of Northwestern is projected to be a slot receiver in the NFL, but if he sees the field this year, it will likely be on special teams.
