I think we should know better by now than to judge a pick by buzz words like 'developmental' or 'special teamer' given that few of the players BB draft really pan out like the buzz word scouting reports say.The team had a need. I just thought they'd deal with it next year. Given that Pouncey was taken, I don't hate the pick, or anything, but I'm not going to do cartwheels over a developmental tackle at this point.
Who better to develop a tackle than Dante?
cam jordan to Colts...thats its doomsday
More than that, the same OL coach who developed Tom Ashworth from TE to LT, finished up Solder for his senior season. NE also signed Solder's Asst. S&C coach to be their Asst. S&C coach - NE was well inside the coaching network on this kid.BB drafted another TE in Solder
Solder was the 45th ranked TE coming out of high school by Rivals.
So looks like Solder at #17 and possibly Wilkerson at #28?
Magic Johnson was a 6'9" guard

I alluded to Solder being the pick when the Pats hired his strength coach -- but no one wanted to "connect the dots" a month ago...
