The Next Mike Vrabel?

[mmasterkillah]

Now I'm confused, most of the kids you listed looked to be ILB types, what position are you drafting ILB or OLB or both?

I was referring to each guy at a particular position which I didn't take the time to clarify.

I think Toal could be valuable in either spot.
Norris at OLB, McRath ILB (but I'm not sure), and Vilma at ILB.

I know Vilma made it clear he wasn't happy in the 3-4, but I think it was in large part because he just needed to prove himself all over again. He was apparently only valued as a 4th rounder after coming off his injury riddled season with the Jets, and he knew he could thrive in the Saints organization, where they needed a playmaker badly (evidenced by the fact they signed injury prone Dan Morgan as well).

I'm not SOLD on any of these guys as locks for greatness in the Pats system, but I do think that they would be legitimate valuable options who could at least provide some depth in the case that we choose to address the O-Line, D-Line or secondary.
