Welcome to Gillette
Posted by Mike Reiss, Globe Staff

FOXBOROUGH -- Welcome to Gillette Stadium, headquarters for the Patriots in today's NFL Draft.

Just to pass along a feel for how things are working here, members of the media are gathered in the press box, the same spot we come for game days. In the back of the press box is a rectangular table with a black speakerphone on it. That is how we will talk to the Patriots' draft picks today.

In terms of media interest, 74 credentials are expected to be issued today. That number could grow. The NFL Network has a television reporter here; ESPN does not.

More to come throughout the day.

With the new format, ESPN goes to commercial seconds after teams make their picks.

Well, the Rams wanted the Ravens first round pick, plus their second, and 4th before they would move the pick. That seems a little steep, so the Rams are likely going to keep the pick.

Chris Long is the pick...I believe.

That was a ridiculous demand, but you can't blame them for asking if they thought the Ravens really covet Ryan.

It will be Long, no doubt.

Well, apparently the Rams are giving teams one last chance, since they've got 3:00 left. . . .

Here we go--the Rams pick CHRIS LONG, DE, Virginia.

Scary fact, BTW--the Pats have SEVEN games against the top 6 teams in the draft.

Falcons on the clock. Do they go for Ryan, or a tackle?

I probably would have taken Dorsey if I was St. Louis, but you can't really find fault with the pick being Long. He's gonna be very good
