From the communist manifesto (a/k/a the Globe):
''The average linebacker, I think, is about 6-1 or something like that? If it's me and one of them one-on-one, I'm going to make the play because of my height," said Pope, who credits Watson with helping him develop into a first-team All-Southeastern Conference selection.
Watson, who showed flashes of brilliance with New England last season after missing all but the first game of his rookie campaign with a knee injury, expects big things from Pope.
''He's gotten so much better than he was when I was at Georgia," said Watson, who plans to travel to Americus, Ga., to watch the draft with Pope. ''He's really eager to learn, really coachable. He's going to be a player."

Watson has been out of Georgia for two years now, yet he is going back to watch the draft with Lenoard. I've said all along, I watched Pope play the last few years and he is a BEAST!! His QB last year will be luckly to be drafted as a WR next week. You put him with Brady, and at 6'8", he would make a very inviting target on 3rd and 4, not to mention on the goaline. If he is still around at #21, that is alot of talent to pass up. I don't think that I have to remind y'all the sucess that the Pats have had with drafting Dawgs
