Belichick on Jamie Collins after the Colts' game:
It Is What It Is » Jamie Collins, Dont?a Hightower spark defense in playoff win over Colts
Pretty succinct summary of what BB wants from a draft pick. Versatile athletes that are smart, work hard, and have a great team attitude. What's so hard to find about that?
It seems to me that description would apply to Chandler Jones, Jerod Mayo, Devin McCourty, Julian Edelman, Shane Vereen, Rob Ninkovich (not a Pats' draftee), Vince Wilfork and the much-maligned Dont'a Hightower.
Something to think about when evaluating guys for 2014 who might be good fits.
“I think he’s pretty comfortable wherever he is, whether he’s in line taking blockers or blitzing, or covering tight ends from in close. He’s a very versatile athlete that’s smart, works hard, really has a great team attitude. I love having him on our team.”
