As you can imagine I really feel terrible about hurting the Giants feelings. You’ve beaten us three straight times, two of which in Super Bowls, and you think we’re going to just let your best tight end pass by us in the night? BB don’t play that. Especially since the Pats are one of the few teams who actually compete with a long-term vision.

The Giants might’ve won the first two Super Bowls we’ve faced them, but we’re still just one Lombardi away from epic greatness unseen before by a coach/quarterback combination. We’re not done yet!

Must Listen Alert! As someone who left Hightower off his Big Board it makes me feel slightly better that Cosell wasn’t quite sure of his Pats fit either. Still, that’s no excuse, he should’ve been on there.

On New England Patriots first-round LB Dont’a Hightower: “Hightower was a guy I struggled with a little – there were some games I watched when I thought, ‘Oh, this guy has a chance to be a good player,’ and there were other games in which I thought he just didn’t move quite that well. If they played a 3-4 and [Brandon] Spikes and Hightower were their inside linebackers … to me, neither guy moves quite well enough. But obviously, Bill Belichick knows more than I do, and what Hightower does give you is versatility. He played almost every linebacker position, and in addition, he put his hand on the ground when they went to their sub-packages, and rushed the quarterback. There’s a versatility element with this kid. He’s had some injuries that he’s coming back from, so maybe he improves.”
