Whatever gets him on the field, man.

22, like GRONK will be in his third season.

Only on Patsfans is 26/27 considered to be not young enough. Every player must be 23, coming off multiple pro bowl seasons, and locked up long-term at below market value. Anything else is simply unacceptable.

Heh.

The poster did ask how young I'd like Vollmer to be.

Truth be told, I'm fine with him as is, I just wish he were younger.

I see Vollmer being traded next offseason or franchised and traded the next offseason. There's too much value in a potential franchise LT to keep him at RT for the duration of his contract and get just a 3rd comp pick out of him. Hence, now's the time to work on getting a new right tackle for 2012 and beyond.

Looks like both are signing with the Pats.

Ross is a prolific punt returner (2nd all time at Cal). Don't know much of anything about Silvestro, but after last year I don't hate the idea of more Rutgers alums on D. :P

Pats Propaganda (that's miDeuce here on these forums) dug up this clip of Jeremy Ross: Pats Propaganda, Patriots UDFA Watch: Jeremy Ross, WR CAL ...
Nice pickups. Silvestro certainly has the size measureables we're looking for at 6'3 260. The Scarlet Knights connection is interesting to note as he was a former teammate of Mccourtys. The Pats probably saw something they liked in Silvestro when they were scouting Dmac. Here's an interesting piece on Silvestro.

As always, Rutgers DE Alex Silvestro does whatever it takes | NJ.com

Please tell me you're joking... It's really hard to tell on the forums sometimes.

Yeatman didn't "JUST" convert from lacrosse to football, he has played both sports since high school.

He chose ND becuase they let him play both, then got into problems with more than one underage drinking issue (DUI involved the second time) and transferred to Maryland.

story on his transfer: Notre Dame Fighting Irish's Will Yeatman to transfer to Maryland Terrapins - ESPN

I guess you could say he only recently focused ONLY on football, though

A few posters had Keith Darbut on their radars. He is going to sign with the Bengals

Not at all. There's no reason for him to sign for RT money for the Pats when he can get LT money somewhere else, so the Pats might as well get a 1st rather than that late 3rd comp pick. It's the Richard Seymour scenario, except that Vollmer can contribute more as an LT for another team rather than at RT for the Pats.

The Patriots went with Jeff Tarpinian instead.
