ubuntu vps on Looking at Patriots Prospects: A 2010 NFL Draft Preview, OffenseWith the 2010 NFL Draft just two days away, I thought I would take the time to write a really in depth Patriots draft preview that will cover a lot of players, and every single position. The goal here is to quickly summarize each player that the Patriots have looked at, or may be interested [...]

The word commonly associated with the New England Patriots when it comes to the draft is “value.” Under the current system, a draft pick’s salary is based on how high they were taken in the draft. The player’s agent will look at the contract signed by whoever was drafted in the same [...]
Name: Jared Odrick
Position: Defensive End/Tackle
School: Penn State
HT/WT: 6′5″, 304 lbs
Projection: Mid to Late 1st
Strengths: At 6′5″ and over 300 pounds, Jared Odrick is a mauler who played the 3-technique in Penn State’s 4-3 defense. He is solid as a pass rusher, with good agility and a good bull rush. He is also good and [...]
Round 1:
1. St. Louis Rams: Sam Bradford, QB
Bradford may not be the best player in the 2010 class but he makes the most sense for the Rams, both financially and on the field.
2. Detroit Lions: Ndamukong Suh, DT
The Lions also need offensive line help, but I think Suh is the best player in this [...]
I found this write-up from Gregg Rosenthal of ProFootballTalk.com very interesting:
The best way to avoid drafting players you don’t really want is to take them on your draft board.
That’s the theory, anyhow, used by Bill Belichick in New England and some of his proteges around the NFL. Jeff Legwold of the Denver Post has an interesting [...]
Yesterday, the Patriots hosted Oklahoma State wide receiver Dez Bryant on a pre-draft visit at Gillette Stadium, according to Mike Reiss of ESPNBoston.
The situation with Bryant is a very interesting one. He is an immense talent, but there are some serious character questions surrounding him. He is big, physical, has great hands, can make the [...]
Name: Ryan Mathews
Position: Running Back
School: Fresno State
HT/WT: 5′11.5″, 218 lbs
40 Time: 4.37
Projection: Mid to Late 1st
Strengths: Ryan Mathews might be the most complete all-around back in this years draft. At nearly six feet and 220 pounds, Mathews has a solid, compact frame. He has excellent balance running through the hole. With his balance, he [...]
The time has finally arrived for our third mock draft this year. My goal is generally to have four or five per offseason. It’s amazing how quickly things change in regards to draft stock. Feel free to rip me as much as you would like, but I’ve put a lot of serious research into these [...]
A few days into the combine, I thought now would be a good time to take a quick look at some of the players the Patriots have taken a look at during the combine. Note that this list is not final, there are many players that have been interviewed by the team not on this [...]
With the Senior Bowl and other college football all-star games in the books, I thought it would be appropriate to take another look at how I think the Patriots draft might turn out. Remember, we still have over two and a half months until the draft, and a lot will change between now and then [...]
