Even at his best, I'd be surprised if Faulk was used more than 60% of the Pats snaps, a part time weapon, and the Pats have never had anyone as dynamic as Charles.

I can see him being a hybrid between Faulk/Edelman (I don't want to use Welker, because I think Welker's much better). I think when you add up all the ways he can be used, he'll be on the field every bit as much as a guy like Cody. He's a slot receiver they currently don't have, he's a RB on downs that they don't want Charles/Jones on the field anyway.
And in the long-term view (2-3 years from now), he could easily become a complement back to Charles.
Add in that I could see him returning kicks while Arenas returns punts.
I disagree that he's a part-time player.
