seven picks in the 6th and 7th rounds

Some of the players I liked as 6th/7th targets seem to be coming up in the world now. For instance, I wouldn't be surprised to see both Deji Karim and Mike Kafka gone before the 6th. Now I need new binkies.

I'll stick with punter Brent Bowden, though.

I'm having the same problem.

Block-first TEs are usually available. Someone mentioned Hoomanamanui, and I think he'd be a fine choice. Greg Boone (Va Tech) and Caz Piurowki (Fla St) being others. Also at TE Jeff Cottam (Tenn), who's spent significant time injured, but could end up an NFL starter. Scott Sicko (UNH) is starting to rise and may go in the 4th or 5th.

Matt Dodge (ECU) is my punter of choice.

I like FB/H-b Jack Corcoran of Rutgers to do a little lead blocking and some wiggle on screen passes, if Belichick wants to reprise the Heath Evans role.

Small school linemen your game? Maine's Tyler Eastman and Fordham's Andrew "Alphabet Soup" Tyshovnytsky are good developmental tackle candidates, with Montana's Terran Hillesland and Richmond's Matt McCracken for the interior.

I like taking Cal O-lineman Chet Teofilo and moving him back to the defensive side as a nose tackle. Martin Tevaseu is 329 lbs after dropping 100 in the last two years, and besides being a bit short could also contribute at the nose.

ILB prospects Mike Johnson (North Alabama) and Chris McCoy (Middle Tennessee) have the measurables. LSU's Jacob Cutrera is under-bulked and Texas Tech's Brandon Sharp is under-tall, but they have ILB experience and could be worth a shot late.

Small school pass-rushers include Dane Fletcher (Montana St) and Aaron Morgan (LA-Monroe). Eric Moncur (Miami) has the pedigree, but is short (6-2) and coming off injury. Ditto Matt Marcorelle (Delaware), except for the pedigree part.

DBs Josh Morris (Weber St), Anthony Levine (Tennessee St), Jeromy Miles (UMASS), Mike Newton (Buffalo), Chinonso Echebelem (Tulane), & Antonio Baker (LA Tech)

WRs EJ Morgan-Green (Morgan St), Juammoris Stewart (Southern), Kelton Tindal (Newberry), Terrell Hudgins (Elon), Duane Brooks (Stephen F. Austin), Eyad Salem (Illinois St), Dustin Woods (Miami OH)

Finally, RB Andre Anderson (Tulane) and QBs Matt Nichols (Eastern Washington) and Andy Schmidt (Eastern Michigan).

What? You asked.

How about Nate Byham of Pitt? He lost his starting role to Dorin but he's supposed to be an excellent blocker.

Fine blocker, and good hands. I don't expect him to be available in the 6th or 7th.
