If we want to go the OL route? - New England Patriots Forums

Although it seems highly unlikely, nothing is impossible in the draft with BB and Pioli... so thought I'd just throw this out there:

Weighing in at 304-pounds, Staley's forty-times ranged between 4.79-and-4.82 seconds. His times in the short-shuttle and 3-cone were 4.30 and 7.17-seconds respectively. Staley then marked 32-inches in the vertical jump and 9-feet-4-inches in the broad.

Several coaches on hand stated it was one of the best workouts by an offensive lineman they had ever witnessed. One coach claimed Staley "made millions for himself today" after the workout was complete.

Based on his performace here, he may well go ahead of #24 and push someone else down to us - LT with good athleticism are likely to go quite high.

I'm not sure an OT is highly unlikely, we have a revolving door at RT and seemingly underwhelming choices at our positions of need unless Willis is there of the Pats' staff really likes Poz.

Staley is a former TE ....... maybe this is the yearly TE that BB and company seek? They could draft him to play TE initially and then slowly integrate him to LT
