Side note - Percy Harvin leaves the rookie symposium.

Vikings WR Harvin sent home from rookie symposium due to illness

That's the second team/NFL event he has had to leave due to illness this off-season. Is this guy going to make it through training camp, preseason, and sixteen games?

I simply refuse to believe the story that Brad Childress put out there that this was the guy the Patriots really wanted.

Yeah, I agree. There are so many reasons the Pats would not consider have considered Harvin with that pick. The only question I have is whether or not Childress really believed what he said - or was it (a) a sell job to Vikings fans, and/or (b) a simply a shot at Belichick/self promotion.

I suppose ten or fifteen years from now we'll eventually find out from people that were involved on both sides.

Yeah, it's not like BB's a guy that holds grudges or anything. . . .

Wait a minute ! BB wanted Harvin. He also, if memory serves, wanted Gholston. And, if I'm not mistaken, the Pats would be way better of with both. To think that BB would settle for Mayo last year still gets me in a frenzy. Our pass rush ! Our pass rush ! Mayo doesn't rush ! I wonder if the new NYJ administration would take Mayo off our hands - straight trade - for Gholston...
