Hey everyone. Take this for whats its worth, but I've been told by a lot of people who are subscribers to www.warchant.com that Lorenzo Booker wrote is his draft diary that the Patriots are giving him a private workout and have expressed interest in him. They are coming to Tallahassee to give him the workout. I would provide the link, but there is no point since you would all only be able to read the first sentence since no one is a subscriber and I can't provide the quote because I myself am not a subscriber.
I for one would think Lorenzo Booker would be a good 3rd round pickup and would be a better version of Kevin Faulk. He's a little bigger, a little faster, has much better hands and has never lost a fumble his entire career at FSU. His numbers won't overwhelm you mostly because of bad offensive lines and a bad system. He did show flashes of brilliance during his career, especially in big games such as the ACC championship game, Orange Bowl, and Emerald bowl.
For comparison sake he had a very similar career at FSU to Leon Washington who was a very solid rookie for the Jets last year. He's faster than Washington and most people at FSU think he's has more talent. I think in the right system (which I think the Pats are with the way they use Faulk) he could flourish.
I was just curious as to see what you guys think of the Pats picking up a guy like Lorenzo Booker to go with Maroney. I am biased, but I for one think it would be a great pickup.
