I think the draft is a part of the process. Really, the team-building exercise, it kind of never stops. It’s ongoing, it’s just specific to one segment of the year. Most of the time, free agency comes before the draft. We had one instance where it didn’t. The team-building process is nonstop, it’s ongoing, and once we get post-draft, there will be a period during training camp – like Rob Ninkovich, just to pick a name, I think we signed him in August 2009 in training camp. And Rob has ended up being one of the better players that we’ve had in our program. It’s constant, it’s going, it really never stops, and in the end, the most important thing is to do whatever we can to help our team win games.

The chance to pair Wilfork with a similar attacker would instantly improve the Pats’ front. At 31, it’s hardly unrealistic to wonder how much longer Wilfork can play at an elite level. A violent defensive pairing would be helpful, but the opportunity to use more of a rotation, limit Wilfork’s reps to save his long-term endurance and, ideally, not suffer too much of a drop-off would be a luxury.

29. New England Patriots – Robert Woods, WR, USC
The Patriots draft situation is more fluid than ever. They could go in about three different directions depending on how the draft board shakes out. What I do know is that they are focused on four areas CB, WR, DL and OG. Depending on how the picks before them go, it’s likely they go wide receiver or cornerback with their first pick. Over the last three months the Patriots have spent a lot of time and resources scouting the receiver class. Out of all the receivers that could be picked with this selection, I believe Woods is the best fit. His ability to run a number of different routes, line up anywhere in the formation and his strong hands make him a great fit for the Patriots offense. Woods will give OC Josh McDaniels a lot of flexibility with formations and how he is lined up. If it weren’t for his ankle injury Woods would be ranked much higher. If Woods is off the board, I expect the Patriots to target a CB and reset their WR board heading into the second round. Cornerbacks to keep an eye on are Jamar Taylor, Blidi Wreh-Wilson and potentially Desmond Trufant.
