Rob Gronkowski won’t be having surgery to check on the status of his infection, and ultimately install a new plate in his left forearm just yet. According to one source familiar with the proceedings, the decision for now is to have the Patriots tight end delay the surgery for several more weeks to be sure the infection has completely cleared out, and continue with the course of antibiotics.

Not really sure this is good news. If they have to go back in regardless of the infection just to change the plate and the recovery time for that is 10 weeks, delaying it only puts more of the season in jeopardy, right? Ugh, I can’t believe what a pain in the ass this injury has turned into. Usually with a broken bone it heals up and you’re good to go, unlike major ligament injuries that can take a full two years to heal completely from. At this point I don’t know what to expect.

no gronk no problem! I think Brady will adapt well and spread the ball around now better than ever thanks to not having his two biggest safety nets in welker and gronk. I’m also pretty stoked about the draft because I think the Pats would be set if they would just draft a good 1-2 punch at CB/WR/DT. The option of trading down is always there, but I’m really hoping they find who they need with those two top picks.
Yeah I hope so, I do think everyone should be prepared for the offense to be a little clunky at times. They were so hot or cold in 2012, either unstoppable or couldn’t get a first down. But I think by the end of the season they should start to click, and hopefully be a more well-rounded offense that is less predictable with less obvious situational targets.
In terms of the draft, I think you’re right, there are only so many needs on the team at this point and they really can take the best player available. But as things stand now with Dennard back in the fold and assuming Sanders comes I’d put the needs as:
- X Wide Receiver
- Pass Rushing Base Defensive Tackle
- Cornerback
- Pass Rushing Defensive End
- Coverage Linebacker
- Interior Offensive Lineman
- Tackle
- Safety
“Just been training, trying to get my body right, get my strength up so I can have a decent season next year,” Hernandez told the Herald yesterday. “I’d say more attention to specific muscles instead of just doing the basic bench, squat and all that other stuff. I’d say I started a little earlier this year to maybe try to get through 16 games this season. “It’s away from everything else — away from my family, my friends, gives me time to focus on football, focus on my main priorities in life.”

With the loss of Welker and Lloyd, and Gronk potentially unavailable for the start of the season, there’s nothing the Patriots need more on offense than a full healthy season out of Hernando.

Good news for Dennard and the Pats, assuming the NFL doesn’t try to suspend him, which doesn’t seem likely but with Rog Goodell who knows, he should be good to go for the 2013 season.
While this eliminates an immediate need for a starter at cornerback, I still think they could use a versatile corner from the draft. We all know how much injuries seem to hit the secondary and they need some depth to withstand any that might strike.

Probably the best role for Kelly with the Patriots will be as a situational pass rusher from the inside. That’s where his strength is at this point in his career, but that’s limited. He really needs to be singled up, and against weaker opponents. Kelly is pretty much a one move and then he’s done kind of guy. He gives his best shot and if there’s an opening, he pursues aggressively. If not, Kelly plays read and react. He does play to the whistle but his want-to depends on if he thinks he has an opening.
