" Over what I'm ready to -- the New England Patriots only 23 overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft. And public breakdown Patriots selection process we'll bring him -- race who covers the team for the Boston Globe and Michael Patriots deep threats. Needs to get younger especially at linebacker. Do you think the pats will target a linebacker that -- third pick."

" Yeah not necessarily. I think the biggest thing I'm on the draft and looking at both short term need and always turn he'd been in the should serve I know what he didn't look at that I would beautiful spot where the Patriots traded Vrabel away and they have a little bit of an -- But they have a crop of young players but that's that's why wouldn't be surprised. They actually go on the defensive line thinking for the long term there's going to need there was some big contracts expiring after the 2009 is it."

" New England not exactly young at wide receiver or running back either the pats have 32 round picks. You think they'll look hard at these two positions."

And that's for the long term I think since 2009 they probably still pretty good about what they have at running backwards you look at it. Fred Taylor Sammy Morris Kevin Faulk and Laurence Maroney -- again that's a long term needs that they might look at running back in the second round it would 2010 and mine didn't say anything good receivers they probably feel good. With Randy Moss Wes Welker Joey Galloway Greg Lewis.

I think what's that's helped me get when you get a decent as the -- and and you develop wouldn't be that big time player that's where the big money is. I think if you can rapid -- sense that want and that's what you do led the Patriots that if they have been real sports Richard Seymour but Jarvis Green and let's even met.
