Tavon Wilson sounds like a Patriot
 
Patriots conference call transcript.

Tavon Wilson Conference Call Transcript

Quote:
Q: You served as a captain and Coach Belichick likes leaders. Do you think that played a factor and if so, how much?

TW: Most definitely. The Patriots are a great organization; there are a lot of great leaders over there. They're looking to bring good people into their organization. They do their background information [checks] on everyone. Yes, I think that was a factor. I always put my team above myself. Coach [Ron] Zook always told me that was going to help me out in the long run.
This stood out to me.

Quote:
Q: Why did you choose to play corner?

TW: I just thought that was where I was most needed on my football team. We had a safety coming back off of injury and I felt like he was a pretty good player. We had some young guys that could play safety, but we didn't have the other corner, so I said I'd play corner because I thought that was the best fit for the team.
The ultimate team player.

The more I hear about this guy the more I like him!!!

Neither could most of the safeties on the roster last season :p

I've never seen the kid play so I'm not going to judge him until we've at least seen him play a few games in a Patriots jersey.

Of course when he's being interviewed by a team known for having players with humility he's gonna say he puts the team first. I don't see how that means anything.

Well, I'm convinced. No way this guy will succeed.

You actually think Belichick would draft someone with poor coverage skills and below average instincts? Really? Why aren't you clamoring to have him fired if you have little faith in his ability to evaluate talent?

You can picture that, whilst I picture someone the Pats felt worthy of drafting with their higher second round pick. If he had no skills, he would not have been drafted. Let's watch it play out. If nothing else, he'll be a fine special teamer.

Hahaha by who? You?

I'm 99.9% certain you just made that up.
