Re: Nice Fox article...
I'm still shocked he was available at #41

41. New England Patriots — Darius Butler, CB, Connecticut The Patriots let just about everyone in the world know that they were high on Darius Butler. So high, that several folks expected them to take the Jersey kid at No. 23 overall in the first round. Well, they traded down and still got him. Excellent value for a first-round talent. Butler didn't record a single interception last season. That's because no one threw at him.

Encouraging outlook on Tate

83. New England — Brandon Tate, WR, UNC Hakeem Nicks got all the press once the draft buzz began, but it was actually Tate who had the more accomplished UNC career. He was lost for the season with an injury during the Notre Dame game, couldn't work out at the Combine because he was still recovering, and was then busted for a positive drug test. There goes your first-day pick, Mr. Tate. At No. 83, however, he's a steal.
