Well, we can't accuse them of casting too narrow a net in terms of physical types. Apparently anything between Verne Troyer and Andre the Giant is of potential interest.

Quite a few interviews lined up with interior OL prospects. Looks like there is a good chance this position will be targeted early in the draft. Williams meeting with the Patriots has me excited at the possibilities of paring him with Gronk.
*Quick aside: I may have a chance to attend the NFL draft. I shall keep you all posted on whether or not I am fortunate enough to go*
It should be noted that all the OL meetings we've been told of so far are with mid-round prospects. That would tie in with how the Pats value interior OL historically.
And good luck on going to the draft. It would be good to get a perspective of what it was like to be there.
Good point, manx. Could mean that they like the depth and are targeting mid round OL, leaving them to draft other positions early.
Thanks. I'll definitely post Patsfans from the draft if I go.

Or they want to keep potential early rounders quiet.
Miss State RB Josh Robinson met with the Patriots today.
Michigan State WR/CB Tony Lippett says he doesn't have any formal meetings planned with the Patriots, but met with them at Senior Bowl.
Central Arkansas WR Dezmin Lewis said he met w/ #patriots WR coach Chad O'Shea. Said they put up film and put him "in the hot seat".
@DougKyedNESN: Iowa OL Brandon Scherff met with the Patriots last night.
Here comes a shocker: Rutgers TE Tyler Kroft has a formal interview planned with the Patriots tonight.
A couple more players who have interviewed with the Patriots: UMass TE Jean Sifrin, Ohio State TE Jeff Heuerman
Also:
Mike Davis, RB, S Carolina
Matt Jones, RB, Florida
Michael Dyer, RB, Florida
Josh Harper, WR, Fresno State (at Senior Bowl)

Belichick has entered the "drafting guys with easy to pronounce names" stage of life.
