An "inside look" article that shouldn't be missed

[patfanken]

This is a great article by Mark Daniels of the Providence Journal. It's an inside look at the rise of Nick Casserio from grad assistant at Saginaw Valley State, to the virtual GM of the Pats (among his other duties of coach, scout, game planner, and game day assistant to Josh McDaniels). It's still a long time before game time. This will definately help fill it.

Nick Caserio's fingerprints all over Patriots' run of success

There is a report that McDaniels didn't want to go to the 49ers as soon as he found out that Casserio wouldn't be going.

I'm not sure that's true. Josh has been best friends with Casserio since college, I'm sure he'd have been the first to know Nick's feelings on moving. Besides Nick never even interviewed with the Niners, while Josh did, even after he knew Nick wasn't going.

They have a great deal of work to do this offseason but keeping Caserio, Patricia, and McDaniels certainly will help.

The report was that he withdrew his name after he found out Casserio wouldn't be interviewing
