That's one name that should keep us on our toes as the second round pick approaches. Unheralded player from Illinois.

Six receptions total in 2013, up from two catches in 2012. One kick return for 2.0 yards total, so he can play special teams too.
Big fan of Martavis Bryant. Reminds me of Randy Moss. Bryant's coaches actually were asked which receiver has the most potential, and they said Bryant, not Watkins.Still with the WRs
Turns out this was a workout by BB himself and included a film session. BB was in town anyway for a half marathon so be careful not to give too much import to the news.
Wesley Johnson was an early Mayo fave, in part because he's so versatile. He's a college LT that took snaps at centre in the Senior Bowl.
I heard an interview with Su'a Filo yesterday. About as impressive an interview as I've heard. very intelligent, likeable and professional guy. Two things of note, when he was asked which team he'd like to play for, the Patriots were first on his list (he liked the way our OL plays). Secondly, he models himself on Logan Mankins. Impressive guy that I like more today than I did yesterday.
I remember when Mankins was selected and BB was doing his presser, he was adamant about how Mankins was going to play guard for NE though he spent his whole college career at LT.Maybe Su'a-Filo is good enough to break the mold, but the Patriots' MO seems to be to find LTs and make them into guards.
At least a few contacts with draft picks. Only one with a UDFA. TheSo by my count, the Patriots ended up with five players that they had contacted, is that correct?

At least a few contacts with draft picks. Only one with a UDFA. The
process seems overrated for judging talent.
