Wow, and I was just trashing the Seahawks for reaching. This dude was a 5th round projection at best.

The Pats were one of at least 3 AFC teams with a 2nd round grade on him...

I don't doubt you, but I'd like a source to shut up the bellyachers.

That team is San Diego. RT @DPBNE: Told me 2 other teams had 2nd rnd grade on Wilson both AFC teams. One team NE played last season.

And Hammerman also posted on a different forum that he can almost guarantee the Texans were the other, the one that the Pats did not play last season.

Now I've never heard of this Dean Barker, but this was the tweet before the one above:

Just spoke to guy on Tavon Wilson. Says watch Indiana game,Ohio St,Michigan and Wisconsin. Tell him then who best DB was on the field.

And his twitter feed is full of things he's heard from sources. Between that and the fact that I know Hammerman has had good info in the past, I'm not questioning the report.
