Maybe this has been discussed elsewhere here, but Karen Garegian's article irked me, so whatever. Why doesn't she understand that if you take a late first and trade it for a second this year and another first next year, then you have GAINED a pick. You had one pick before, and now you...

Goes back more than five years. Pretty good. Pats haven't been lower than 17th in all that time (in 2008). Colts bottomed out at 20th. New England Patriots Power Rankings Chart - ESPN Apologies if this is a repost. I'm not on here as much as I'd like to be.

An exchange just now between BB and the 'EEI crew, mostly Pete Shepherd. (roughly transcribed) Pete: Do you think Maroney is the kind of back that needs more carries to get going, get into a rhythm to do well? BB: I think he needs a little room to operate. Like any back, if there's...

OTAs and stuff are very exciting to be sure, but we're definitely in the midst of the boringest time of the offseason, so I figured I'd shamelessly rip off this concept from another football board and bring it over here. In no particular order Patriots Tom Brady John Hannah Andre...

Trent Dilfer was on ESPN radio earlier today (around 1:00 p.m.). I don't know if they archive interviews like 'EEI, but if so it is definitely worth a listen. Less than 10 minutes long, he was sharp, intelligent, insightful and funny. Anyway, he was asked what chance the Giants have to beat...

Is anyone else amused that the Chargers and Jaguars must really hate us (in addition to the already obvious and well known hatred for us held by the Colts and Steelers for us)? In the last 3 years we've ended the seasons of each of these teams in the playoffs TWICE. The fact that we've...

Just for the record, my fear is that some very bad football in a very small period of time will torpedo this team's chance for 19-0. The most likely time for this to happen is Sunday against the STeelers, because they ARE good, and we ARE tired, as Belichick admitted. Coming off a Monday...

Never heard of the guy, but I was amused.... Lee_Russakoff Russakoff Rules synopsis articles article description subject Week 12 NFL Power Rankings (Top 16)date 11-27-2007 12:54 PM author Lee_Russakoff writes: "The Russian is cut!" You have to admit, the parallels between...

Godef has it right. This was discussed hotly when it happened iwth the realignment. While it's not "geographically correct", it did the best job of preserving the hotter rivalries between the various teams. The Dolphins had long histories with the other 3 teams in the AFC North, and the Colts...

end of message.

Today's article with Dr. Z was focused on Bill Parcells, but is also very relevant to the way Belichick builds teams, I think. He doesn't seem to draft linebackers high (yet), but certainly alot of other "tough positions" like TE, OLine and DLine have gotten alot of draft pick attention...

Apologies for the oddness of this question... I've somehow been dragged into trying to settle an argument about whether Ted Johnson's mother-in-law is some kind of famous author -- romance novels or somesuch. Some quick Googling didn't reveal anything. Anyone know?

Good article in the USA Today. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/nfl/patriots/2006-05-31-seymour-sw_x.htm

I hadn't seen this anywhere else, and don't remember seeing any links to it from any Pats website either, so although it's a bit dated, I'll post it here. Hopefully it's not a repeat. It's an interview of BB with Rich Eisen. According to Allthingsbillbelichick, a full video is available at...

Interesting. Didn't see this posted previously so hopefully not a repeat. I'm thrilled to have CW stay at ND and not come into the NFL. BB pipeline guys who are in the college ranks HELP us (by helping to identify potential draftees, and potential weaknesses of players that they may have...

Blatantly ripped off from a post on a KC Chiefs Forum: Let's put together an all-time Patriots team where we can only have one person per last initial (A, B, C, D, etc.) In other words, all 22 players must have a different last initial. For practical reasons, we'll go only with the 22...

A random thought I just had -- how much would you pay to have full and complete access to the Pats war room during draft? See the board, sit in there with Belioli and the rest? Actually, sweeten the pot a little -- you can sit in on every group meeting relating to the draft by Pats brass...

So it's great that Seymour signed, no mistake, but Brady and Seymour's contracts BOTH expire after 2010. Aye carumba. :bricks: Here's hoping Belichick hasn't already penciled in 2010 as his retirement year... :eek:
