Patriots Daily: Stacking the Board – First Day Linebackers
 

We’re fewer than 20 days from the 2009 NFL Draft, so it’s time for the PD War Room staff to put its chips down on the prospects we’ve come to like over the last three months of exhaustive (all that scrolling and clicking) research.

Over the next couple of weeks we’ll look at each of the position groups and identify the players we think would make fine Pats, should the opportunity present itself. Chris Warner will run the second-day prospects through their paces while I work the white board for the Pats first four picks (selections 23, 34, 47 and 58).

We start today with the linebackers.

Stacking the Board – First Day Linebackers

Sintim and Kruger are not bad 2nd round consolation prizes if there is an expected run on LBers in the mid first round, before we pick.

I think Houston starts the run by taking Mathews or Cushings at #15.
