Light/Solder
Mankins
Koppen
Waters/Cannon
Vollmer/Solder

Connolly as the roving interior backup
Rookie draft pick as a developmental center
It's amazing how "in order" the entire offense is for the next couple of years. Assuming a new Welker deal is coming, the only worries on O are C and #2 WR for 2012.
Could the 2012 draft be all D players?

LOVE Waters! One of the best pickups of the offseason. to think we got this guy off the scrap heap of free agency? He has clearly been a strength for our OL. Brady and Gronk wouldn't have enough time to break those offensive records without his OL. Waters is a big part of that!

His getting number 54 didn't bother me at all. Bruschi is in the studio now. Not a fan of retiring numbers anyway.

I find myself wondering if we're going to see a positional overhaul in this year's draft, ala RBs last year or TEs the year before. Gotta say, I wouldn't mind seeing the Pats draft 2+ safeties this year then throwing them at the wall to see who sticks.
