I didn't realize that Mike Wright and Jarvis Green weren't up to the job of spelling Seymour and Warren. Also, the Pats normally only carry 6-D-linemen into a game. Not 7. Brown is going to take Marquis Hill's spot on the inactive bench more likely than not.
Like I said Jarvis Green was injured throughout that game and hardly played. We didn't have anybody to come in. The same guys were out there for every single play and they were struggling. Mike Wright is an UDRFA who played because Marquise Hill could never realize his potential. Kareem Brown is an upgrade, IMO.
The draft has turned out well so far except for needed help at LB and a personnel desire to pick up another RB.....Darius Walker maybe at this point?[/QUOTE]
Don't forget there is always June 1st cuts. There is also a player who may not be as broken as he appears available named Al Wilson.
I'm pretty sure our front office and coaches have got a idea what is wrong with this team. Maybe they feel great with the LB's we have in place? If not then I am sure they have a plan in progress to add depth or another starter.
He might be a NT. In any case, he will compete with Smith and Hill for two roster spots. He has a lot of talent. It isn't easy to find 34 DL's. Also Wright is an RFA next year. This is a solid value pick in the late fourth.
At the very least, he's another big athletic body who will be competing with LeKevin Smith and Hill and Santonio Thomas for the last active gameday spot and reserve spot. I think he's a DE, but in a few years as puts on weight and improves his technique I could see him becoming a nice NT.
A lot of potential, which is always nice to see in day 2 picks...
Excellent way to look at it. This guy looks like a classic 3-4 DE prospect, though he's a bit of a risk (but the Patriots have Jarvis and Mike Wright anyways).
I think he his more of an end in the 3-4. The press says he is inconsistent but in the games I saw he really moves well for a big man and can get to the QB. With the beating DL take you can never have too much depth.
Yea, and you know some of the players who have been DT's there? I think some people are sleeping on him a little to much. Yes he underachieved for part of his career, but during his senior year he was dominant during a number of games.
Umm...NO!!! You must be out of your mind! First of all, Wilfork isn't going to be a free agent until 2010, that is if the Pats don't resign him before that. Second, this guy will NEVER be able to fill Wilfork's shoes. He's not even projected as a NT anyway. Please, if you don't have anything smart to say, just don't say it at all.
