yeah, they all seem to be decent players.
BB hasn't really revealed how he wants this team built.
he's spent a 3rd, a 4th, and a 7th on DBs in the draft over the past 3 years. lou saban gave BB a UFA who appears to be a 5-year starter. he's let ty, tebucky, and lawyer go in the past 3.
does he really want to go no-name back there?
On OL, he's spent a 1st and a 3rd. i can't remember any other draft picks over the last 3 years. they "found" Stephen Neal, one of those outcomes that speaks to the scouting peoples' dedication.
Light Gorin, Mruczkowski, Hochstein, and Ashworth are all Big 10 -Big 12 guys. Hochstein is the only draftee, the rest found their way to patriots as UFAs.
so ya got Mankins and 5 mutts. they're OUR mutts, but they're mutts.
is this how BB wants to build these units? i dunno. maybe it just looks like it.
