Why can't a BOSTON paper do this??? Are they just dumb or is there a REAL reason???

Good article. I gotta think Christian Peters belongs in the Worst Picks category. I mean the guy didn't even make it to TC! Ironically, that was Grier's best draft, but it was also the draft that drove the Tuna out of town. To make things worse, the next 5 guys picked after Peter all became legit NFL players:

149 Christian Peter Patriots DT Nebraska
150 Shane Burton Dolphins DT Tennessee
151 Steve Martin Colts DT Missouri
152 Chris Villarrial Bears OG Indiana, Pa.
153 Jermaine Lewis Ravens WR Maryland
154 Zach Thomas Dolphins LB Texas Tech

I don't know, I'm not ready to refer to Steve Martin as legit. Remember 2002?

Providence is the closest major city to Foxboro. They have no other major league teams. Thankfully, they've done a great job in following the pats, especially Curran.

Stachelski deserve more noteriety. I don't think he made it to minicamp, certainly not training camp. He decided that he just didn't want to play football.
