4.48 forty yards, really explosive on the 3-cone shuttle, from a small school where BB has placed a coach, absolutely a BB type of guy. -

I've been arguing we need a CB . . . but I thought we'd take Kindle with this pick. -

Why do I get so excited for the draft when BB pulls garbage like this every year.... I could not be more dissapointed with this pick. The next beer goes out to Mccourty for proving me wrong..... -

Patriots put too high of value on some of these players just because they are "great special teamers". Instead of drafted a guy that is great at one thing like rushing the QB they take guys that are "pretty good" at several things, thats why they don't have many outstanding players on their team.

Are you frigging kidding me? I don't care who it is, but no corner is going to be effective without a pash rush. You cannot cover receivers forever. Kindle, Hughes, Griffen all available...unfreaking believable...another smurf. -

Wow. We could have probably gotten this guy with one of our 2nd round picks and taken Dez earlier. LAME -

WTH happened here? I really didn't think CB was on the table in the first 4 picks... I really hope Kindle/Hughes make it through tonight and BB trades up for one of the two... -

Strengths:
Excellent athleticism --- Adequate size with long arms --- Great speed with a burst to close and recover --- Quick and agile --- Fluid hips and transitions well --- Terrific feet --- Able to turn and run with wideouts downfield --- Nice instincts and awareness --- Reliable tackler --- Comes up to help in run support --- Hard worker --- Leader --- Durable with a lot of experience against top competition --- Also a special teams ace.
Weaknesses:
Can be a bit inconsistent --- Lacks great hands and ball skills --- Allows too many completions --- Has trouble disengaging from blocks --- Does not always get a proper jam at the line --- Struggles with big wideouts.
Notes:
Was a three-year starter for the Scarlet Knights --- Has a twin brother, Jason, plays for the Tennessee Titans --- Earned 1st Team All-Big East honors in 2009 --- Named a team captain as a senior --- Was a top special teams gunner, saw action as a return man and blocked seven kicks during his college career --- Possesses a nice blend of physical tools and intangibles --- Profiles as a potential starter at the next level but will at the very least provide value as a backup and special teamer.well there's the scouting report, can't say i know much about the kid....CB? I'm as suprised as you guys -

Vollmer, Butler, Chung in 2nd. Pryor and Edelman getting PT. One could argue that BB and Reese draft in 09 was better than any of Pioli's drafts the four years prior. You can't say its a deep draft than b--ch an moan when BB trades down for more picks......in a deep draft. Better value in 2nd. -

NFL.com did not list cornerback as a position of need for the pats.
