It's mildly interesting to me that there is so much talk about Hobbs, Samuel, Hawkins, and Co., and to an even larger degree the need for a CB in the draft, and yet not alot on the skills of Randall Gay.
He was our starting CB for our last Super Bowl winning season, and is only 23. Is this simply an out of sight, out of mind situation?
I'm not one to say that everybody the Pats sign is great, and everyone that leaves us stinks. Not at all. I do happen to really like what Gay brings to the table.
I'll say this, the Pats need a WR more than they need a CB. They need a LB more than they need a CB.
Always remember, and never forget: Before you even consider one of our draft picks after this upcoming draft, remember that if you take the team that was fielded against Denver, you can add a starting LT (Light), C (Koppens), CB (Gay), and if we are REALLY lucky SS (Harrison) to the team for the 2006 version (not to mention the fact that Bruschi, Graham, and Dillon were hobbling greatly. If all 7 are healthy, isn't that alot of firepower?
But, back to my point, Gay was a starter and will be back in the mix. That's not insignificant in this man's opinion. Agree? Disagree? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
