Pick 62 means two things, we didn't win the Superbowl and we lost the pick at the end of round 1. Every mock I read, the 2nd round pick depresses me...

I fully expected to be taking pick 64 in round 2, final pick = superbowl champion.

The SB loss I'll never get over because a victory was within the Pats grasp. There were opportunities to win for both teams...and when it mattered most -- we didn't capitalize. No excuses now.

The theft of a round one pick by the powers that be was beyond FO control. A major injustice delivered to one team, defined by the punishment not fitting the crime. And perhaps worse (for the fans), was the label of 'cheaters' attached to the team throughout the entire season. Yes, a heavy price to pay, especially when you consider what goes on behind closed doors league-wide -- past and present.

What bothers me most leading up to the draft is, knowing the talent available between #7 and #62. I'd much rather have a couple of additional prospects with upside, than only one from the #7 crop, which are loaded with uncertainties. Unfortunately, some of the best Pats Prospects will be gone by #62...but as always -- we'll play out the hand we're dealt...

I respectfully disagree, but we don't have to revisit THAT here. I too am depressed at #62. If the powers that be would send us Flowers on the 26th, I would be happier.

Actually, at this point, it only means one thing: that the Patriots have the 62nd pick in the Draft. As far as the 2007 season goes, so to speak, it was what it was.

Pick #62 means Charles Godfrey to me. I think he'll be great.
