I have heard word on Hughes is that he has looked overweight and slow in the preseason. Granted we wouldn't know since he hasn't seen the field. He has only be active for 3 games and not seen the field in those games. I never thought that he fit the Pats' system anyway. Even with Freeney and Mathis starting over him, he should be seeing some rotational time as a first round pick.

Can we give Floyd Reese some props? He helped build the Titans into a perennial SB Contender. I'm glad he was able to come here and perhaps he can have an even better support system and better results...
Just like the McCourty vs. Wilson thread, it is too early to draw definitive conclusions
I heard the same thing-- that Reese just worked on contract negotiations with the team. But I went back and found this article by our own Reiss ( Floyd Reese quick hits from draft party - New England Patriots Blog - ESPN Boston ), and it sounds to me like Floyd is actually pretty involved in the draft process now, at least this past year.That's what I'm thinking but I've been told by people on this board that he is not that involved in the drafting. I'm told he was brought into New England for contract negotiations. That's weird considering he messed the Titans up regarding the cap but did draft 3 rookies of the year in 11 drafts and built a Super Bowl contender in Tenn.
I think you ought to wait more than 8 weeks before making judgments on how good or bad a player may be
Blah blah blah... "It's too early"... "Wait more games".... "Can't compare players with different coaches"...
Add to the discussion geniuses (well not that last point, which is novel idea at least), or just lurk. You know what, why don't we just wait ten years after each player retires, compare each players entire statistical game history, factor intangibles, adjust for opponent strength and coaching, and regress to the mean?
Funny thing is, then we'd STILL have people saying they can't be compared equitably.
So, let's say you're asked "SO FAR, if you had to choose one, would you rather have Cunningham over the others"? Of course the answer is yes. Now, was that so frickin' hard?

McCourty is a friggin stud. It's not too early at all. Am I the only one who sees this?! This kid will be a pro-bowler, guaranteed.Bingo! It's just too early right now.
