The Patriots certainly didn’t pick up any big name guys in rounds 4-7, but they picked up some guys who can contribute on special teams and sometimes in offensive/defensive situations.
In round four, they picked up Jonathan Wilhite. He’s a 5′ 9 1/2″ inch cornerback from Colorado. He’s very fast, instinctive, has fluid hips, can play [...]
The Patriots’ front office is playing the draft well, real well.
The Patriots traded the 69th overall pick to the Chargers for their 2009 second round pick and this year’s fifth round pick (160th overall). I love this trade. We automatically move up the boards next year, with two second rounders. Also, we fill the fifth round hole the [...]
With the 62nd pick, the Patriots selected cornerback Terrence Wheatley.
The Patriots showed some interest in Wheatley coming in, but I don’t like this pick too much. We could have easily gotten Wheatley in the third round, and probably the fourth round… but who am I to question Bill Belichick?
But still, I’m looking at who was [...]
The Patriots made a splash, by trading the seventh overall pick, plus their fifth round pick to the Saints for the tenth overall pick, plus a third round pick.
Then, at 10, the Patriots selected ILB Jerod Mayo. I love it!
Mayo is the best linebacker in the draft, in my opinion. He is very smart, he [...]
According to ESPN.com’s Michael Smith, the Patriots have inquired about Virginia defensive end / outside linebacker Chris Long.
The trade would likely be the seventh pick, and the 63rd or 69th.
If the Patriots could pull off this trade, I say due it.
Well I’ve finally done it. I told myself I would get through 5 versions of a mock draft, and I’ve actually done it. I think it’s the first series I’ve finally followed through with. I’m pretty psyched.
So it’s draft day. 6:30 AM. I can’t sleep, I’m just too excited. Lame, I know. However, if you’ve [...]
With just two days until the NFL draft, I’ll be taking a position by position look at the draft, and see which players fit the Patriots mold, and which players the Patriots are interested in. Lets start with DE/OLB, a position the Patriots are clearly targeting. In the 3-4 alignment, the Patriots will surely look [...]
The NFL released this statement:

According to Fox25’s Butch Stearns, the Patriots are close to signing a contract with free agent cornerback Ty Law.
FOX25 has learned that the Patriots are close to a deal with Ty Law that would bring the 34 year-old cornerback back to Foxboro.
According to a source close to the situation, Law is ready to sign in [...]
The Patriots have made a late free agent fury, signing some needs before this Saturday’s draft.
First, they signed 38 year old punter Scott Player. Not exactly a need, but it’s a freaking awesome signing. Look at him:
Player is here for one thing… and that is to provide Chris Hanson some competition during training camp. He [...]
