Christopher Price at the combine...

Re: Christopher Price at the combine....

I like the Quotes by Sanchez if he lands on the right team I could route for him. Funny the way he called out Cassel for having more starts

I'm thinking he may not be laughing after Cassel signs his next contract.

Sanchez will get his this year too.

Hey guys ... blogging again today. Found a tight end out of Florida who wants to come to New England in the worst way:

FYI, we've got linebackers talking today, including some of these guys, so the blog will be pretty busy. Stay tuned.

Chris, nice work.

Any thoughts on Stafford's decision not to throw?

Chris, nice work.

Any thoughts on Stafford's decision not to throw?

I think we'll see the long-term ramifications of Stafford's decision not to throw if Sanchez and Freeman have great workouts. I just don't get the sense that Stafford is a dead solid lock to me the first quarterback taken. Don't know--I could we way off, but if one of those guys comes in and blows people away, I think there will be some serious debate about who the first quarterback taken will be. (Plus, there is genuine buzz around here about Sanchez. There seems to be a consensus that his stock is rising.) Not saying Stafford will engage in a Brady Quinn-like freefall in April, but the possibility remains that with a fluid market for quarterbacks (and no one knowing what's going to happen with Cassel) he might be doing himself more harm than good.

Interesting!

While Ingram’s assessment that Belichick likes Florida athletes is a good one, it got us to thinking: How many of them have actually succeeded in New England’s system? The Patriots have certainly brought in more than their fare share of ex-Gators the last few seasons, particularly in 2006. That year, New England drafted two Gators, wide receiver Chad Jackson (second round) and linebacker Jeremy Mincey (sixth round). They also picked up cornerback Vernell Brown, offensive tackle Randy Hand, safety Jarvis Herring and wide receiver Kelvin Kight that same year as undrafted free agents, as well as veteran wide receivers Reche Caldwell and Jabar Gaffney.

However, less than three years later, only Gaffney is still with the team.

What he said about starts is funny. First, college starts are NOT he same as NFL starts. I don't care how many starts Sanchez had in college it means notheing in the NFL. How many times have we seen a starter in college HELLO Linart, Young, Harrington, J.Russell i know i'm missing some real big names. One who bombed in SD 10 years ago or so. The point is Sanchez may have started more games in college and done well Cassel has started games in the NFL and done well,I'll go with Cassel.

those are very interesting comments, showing that he's no longer looking for BB players but for players that fit the new KC system.

Even with his experience and track record, he is changing and adapting, not just bringing a set of preconceived notions, but rather a "process" for how he wants to do things.

Though I did notice that he uses the "imperial 'we'" when he speaks about himself. No small ego there!

And, I hope he likes Ribs...

Peanut butter and rib sandwiches (just like Mom used to make when she was drunk)! :woohoo:
