Default NFP: NFL Draft rumors: Post-Combine

From what Bunting hears/feels:
NFL Draft rumors: Post-Combine | National Football Post

Quote:
• The more sources I talk with the more I get the feeling that the Patriots will not only be in the market for a rush linebacker in round one, but might be willing to buck the trend and look at a smaller/quicker rush guy, staying away from their more patented bigger build.

I still say Aldon or bust. No point changing the whole scheme (i.e., putting Wilfork at DE) to make up for the inadequacies of one player.

I'm telling you, Chris Carter in the late second / third if they don't get anyone in round one. He's great on ST too, and a team leader.

Aldon and Miller are really the only ones worthy a 1st round pick, and it makes sense if Aldon is gone not to get a OLB in the first. But when i read this part of the sentence "staying away from their more patented bigger build" , too me it sounds like they are looking for guys like Sam Acho.

The pass rush solution is already on the roster. On 3rd and long, send in Woodhead. Let those 6'8" OTs try and stop this mini machine on the edge. Woodhead might even go between their legs.

Anyone else here think he was going to suggest GRONK?
