That's a horrible article from Rang. Disgraceful even.

patriots - Caserio talks draft philosophy - WEEI | Christopher Price

I managed to get Chris to ask a question yesterday - which position Caserio thought was the deepest. He replied with four!

Safeties, DE/OLB, DT, OT.

I was trying to get some idea on where the Pats thought the value was and which positions we might target.

Three notable times from the 40 yard dash this morning.

Bruce Campbell ran a 4.78 on his first attempt Just 4.81 on his second attempt....

Trindon Holliday ran a 4.27 on his first attempt.

Has yet to do his second run, so get on NFL.com quick

Holliday was expected to run in the 4.2s.. So can't say that I am surprised there.

The big surprise is Bruce Campbell though.. However, a 40 yard dash doesn't mean much for a O-lineman. What's his agility like..

 

[DaBruinz]

Yeppers however one bad game for Mesko doesn't mean he should be over looked his kickoff ability is a bonus too.

We have one of the best kick-off men in the league in Gostkowski who INCREASED his yardage on kick-offs from 64 to 67 this past year.

And yes, I meant Brandtner. Though Bowden is pretty good as well from what I hear.

Bruce Campbell looks like a physical beast. If we draft a tackle. I probably wouldn't mind a freak like him. Can you imagine Vollmer and Campbell as bookends?? Brady would have the time to fire up the hibachi, cook some baby back ribs, then go through his reads and hit an open receiver!

Yeah I already know that Gost is one of the best..

Holliday is shrimpy at 5'5 160, but I could see him carving out a niche as a dedicated return man. Darren Sproles isn't much bigger, is he?

 

[patsinthesnow]

Wait, the RBs and WRs are running 40s today?



Sproles is 5 6 185. If Holldiay got an NFL Hit, he might die.

Nope he is just a specialist
