Check out Walter Thomas. This guy is RAW, but damn he has the build for a 3-4 NT - not to mention quick feet.

As much as I would like to see the Pats pick up a big NT so the can give Big Vince a rest every now and then, I dont think this guy is worth a draft pick. Maybe sign him as an undrafted FA. But then again, what do I know?

I agree he looks like a potential UDFA project. If the Pats do draft a kid, Utah has Paul Soliai 6'4" 325 is forecast as a 3rd round talent, he's an OG who is raw with only two years at NT. Louis Leonard of Fresno State 6'4'' 320 and Soliai's teammate Kelly Talavou 6'2" 318 are second day/UDFA prospects I'd take a look at too.

I think that the Pats won't draft a back-up NT unless they feel that the player is better than LeKevan Smith and Mike Wright.
