"Cannon, a 6'5" 358 pound mauler, played left tackle throughout his career with the Horned Frogs, but projects as a guard with the New England Patriots."
Round 5, Pick 138: Patriots Draft TCU's Marcus Cannon
In the fifth round, the Patriots made an interesting selection, taking TCU G/T Marcus Cannon.www.patspulpit.com
They had Light and a young Solder at the time. Maybe they hoped he could become the tackle in time, but many of his projections were at Guard.
You can post all the BS from Pats Pulpit you want, it doesn't change that the Patriots drafted Cannon to be the RT.
Solder and Cannon were drafted in the same draft. Solder was drafted as a replacement for Light. Cannon was drafted to take over at RT.
The projections come from people who aren't in the Patriots organization.
