Hmmm. An all-Rutgers backfield. Possible? There will definitely be representation in the roster.

Comment on: Looking at Patriots pick #2: WR Aaron Dobson - Extra Points - Boston.com
The Rodgers pick is really the only one I cared about. I liked the pick. Finally, a plus size receiver with good hands. As for Collins, great physical specimen who may just need the motivation to b more »

Comment on: Predicting the 1st round of NFL draft - Football - Boston.com
No, no, no, no. The Patriots will NOT draft a safety in the first round. Say it, believe it, know it. With only five picks, BB's either gonna draft a DT/DE (Bill has better luck getting it right more »

Comment on: Patriots have struck out at receiver and in the secondary - Patriots - Boston.com
Very interesting assessment. If there's wiggle room in this draft between WR and CB, I'd say the Pats have more room to pick further down at WR. I wouldn't mind seeing them pick a pass rush DE or b more »

Comment on: Losing Welker not worth the cost - Boston Sports Blog - Boston.com
I'm with you on the defense building. They got some young blood but now they have to settle that backfield with some good talent.

Comment on: Losing Welker not worth the cost - Boston Sports Blog - Boston.com
That young defense will be a year wiser and better with the opportunity to solidify it with some key FA signings and draft picks. Let's hope they can keep Talib. McCourty needs to stay at FS.

Comment on: Losing Welker not worth the cost - Boston Sports Blog - Boston.com
What interests me is what will the Patriots do going forward. Do they now address the defensive backfield with Aqib Talib and others? With Dennard possibly facing jail time, the Pats actually need t more »

Comment on: 'As losses go, we’
This one didn't sting nearly as much. I had a sense that the Patriots played hard and that it would come down to who made more plays. Fans from 30 teams did not get the priviledge of knowing what it's more »

Comment on: 12 thoughts on the Patriots in 2011 - Christopher Gasper's Blog - Boston sports news - Boston.com
Agree wholeheartedly on point 11. Solder has quickly learned his assignments and will be better than Vollmer; the success at center replacements has saved this O-line from disaster. As for point 12, t more »

Comment on: 'Patriots get going, roll over Chiefs'
Ugly win. Patchwork defense keeps KC off balance. Arrington is making the most of his opportunities. Edelman keeps finding ways to keep himself on the roster--he needed that punt return. Nice to Canno more »

Forum Post: Is coach BB's EGO hurting the PATS
In Response to Re: Is coach BB's EGO hurting the PATS: Well, I think he is still a good defensive coach, but his grocery list stinks and is stale and outdated. Thats the problem. These not very talent more »

Comment on: One%20day%20at%20a%20time%20for%20Marcus%20Cannon%20
Good to see Marcus out there working. I'm really rooting for this guy. Not worried about the lost weight, though. He was already 350+ so losing some weight will actually be good for him. However far M more »

Comment on: 'Patriots run past Jets'
The Patriots are better at the run than they realize. Big test next week against the NFL's No. 1 run defense. Agree that Waters will go down as the best Patriots signing (in addition to drafting Solde more »

Forum Post: HAYNESWORTH traded to NEW ENGLAND...
I'm a bit nervous about this one but if BB can bring the best out of Albert then this is going to be interesting to watch. Especially from the pass rush standpoint. To be sure BB doesn't suffer fools. more »

Forum Post: What position unaddressed would leave you most dispirited
If the Pats walked away from this year's draft without an OLB or a DE that would be amazing. OLB is such a thin position. They just plain need talent there. There's not too many OLB types that fit more »

Russ, you have a good point. I live in Redskins country and I thank the almighty that I'm a Patriots fan. The Skins fans are not too impressed with Dan Synder and this perenial losing bunch. If Bob more »

Forum Post: Season is over - grade the draft...
Wright gaff notwithstanding, I agree that the draft grade will have to be an incomplete at this point. There's a lot to be optimistic about. Looks like we found a solid OT and we FINALLY have a bevy more »

Forum Post: kaczur should never play.
The best five lineman should be playing. Vollmer has earned his place as the starting RT. Although I've never had a thought on Kaczur one way or another I will concede that he has cost this team in more »

Forum Post: Edelman's future
I think Edelman is worth having on the team for the next few years to see how he progesses as an NFL WR. Having never really played WR until the NFL you have to let him progress and see how far he ca more »

Forum Post: PATS just signed another mid-level guy to an extension.. like the strategy?
Yes, I think an extension is a endorsement of a players current performance and future potential. It's not like there signing top flight FAs here. These are players that contribute on special teams more »

Solder has emerged as a very solid Patriot OT. Win for BB in drafting another stud OL.
