The Patriots had a lot of conversations with teams about moving up in the draft but it didn’t pan out. It’s not known who they were targeting, though Missouri LB Aldon Smith was high on their board and would have been a consideration but he went higher (7th to 49ers) than most imagined.

Yesterday’s consensus target of Patriots Nation was Cam Jordan and the Pats juts weren’t that into him. Today it’s gotta be Jabaal Sheard, who is sure to get the pass rush clamorers excited.
Sheard has long been a favorite target of ours, but I don’t think it’s necessarily going to be an OLB here in the early part of the second round. But I’d bet Sheard is gone by 40.

I wouldn’t worry about Leigh Bodden not playing. I expect to see him in Game 1 agaisnt Miami on Sept. 12. Chris Gasper No one drives me crazy with their Pats stuff more than Gasper, but I’m going to hold him to this one. We need Bodden back. Here it is, Gasper, your one shot […]
