List of Pre Draft Prospect Contacts (2010)

[Box_O_Rocks]

Dominique Franks...cb...Oklahoma on NFL Sirius right now. Said he has met with the Pats and had 1 .5 hours in the film room and about a half hour on the field. Sorry if this info has already been posted.

He said the Patriots expected him to transfer everything they talked about in the film room/classroom to transfer righ to his workout.

Never apologize for posting a duplicate here, we want to identify as many as possible - and Dom is a new addition to the list. :rocker:

 

[Box_O_Rocks]

Another punter: Desi Cullen of Louisville.
I would think the interest would be as an UDFA rather than a draft pick.
It Is What It Is Source: Patriots will work out UConn punter Cullen



What's the maximum number of workouts and visits again?
I would think the Pats must be close to that number at this point.

-- No limits on workouts on campus.
-- Visits are 30 outside the local area kids.
-- I've read claims of 25 to unlimited on the local kids so that one has me puzzled, but 25 would be plenty.

Cool. He seemed very personable and talked about taking his mom to his prom. Talked some about returning kicks too.

here's a little write up about him....you guys have probably seen this but here goes...pretty sure this is PatsFans legal

23 Days to the Draft: Oklahoma CB, Dominique Franks - Pats Pulpit

Dude, you rock.

Did he say where the meeting was?

I didn't see this listed previously, though I may have missed it. Apparently DL Torell Troup of UCF went through a private workout with Belichick last month.

Bill Belichick the scout; works out Troup - Patriots Blog - ESPN Boston

During that process, it was learned that Belichick himself put University of Central Florida defensive lineman Torell Troup through a private workout. The workout presumably took place during Belichick's annual Florida trip in March.

Imagine what it was like for Troup.

At 6-foot-3, 314 pounds, Troup is projected as high as a second-round draft choice. He displayed his strength at the combine by totaling 34 repetitions on the 225-pound bench press.

 

[BritPat]

Yeah, we've got that

Dude, you rock.

I wasn't really paying attention but my ears perked up once the Patriots were mentioned but didn't catch if he stated where the meeting was.

edit...thanks. Glad I finally contributed to the cause.

I like Troup a lot, he's better then his projected third round grade.

Tyson Alualu has traveled tough road toward NFL draft - ESPN Boston

Alualu credits the Cal coaching staff with providing the springboard to putting him on the cusp of entering the NFL. In addition to visiting the Patriots, he has been hosted by the Dallas Cowboys and Denver Broncos. The Atlanta Falcons also have plans to put him through a private workout before the draft.

 

[Nonentity]

I like Troup a lot, he's better then his projected third round grade.

Agreed. In the right scheme he'll be a starting-caliber player. The only excuse for him dropping to the 3rd is sheer weight of numbers above him.

It Is What It Is Patriots work out Auburn’s Coleman

Add Auburn linebacker/defensive end Antonio Coleman to the list of players who have worked out for the Patriots. Coleman, speaking with Buddy Andrade and Pat Schuster on the “Football Dialogue Radio Show” Tuesday night, said he recently took part in a pre-draft workout with New England.

Re: Updated list: 4/9/2010

Colt McCoy completed an hour-long, private workout with the St. Louis Rams

McCoy visited Washington earlier this week, and he worked out for the New England Patriots in late March.

We've at least met with him - on-Campus maybe? I've emailed Chris Werner to find out anyway.
