Frenz: Breaking down prospects who have been privately worked out by the Patriots

Impressive job done here by Frenz, interesting stuff about some prospects I knew, and a bunch I didn’t. A private workout of course signifies at least marginal interest in the player, but whether or not they can pick up concepts quickly, demonstrate they are/will be fully healthy, and have all the game film to back it up, we can never know for sure. 

They wanted a closer look, but that doesn’t mean they’re fully vested in the player yet.

This could be the perfect year for Belichick to move up to grab a difference maker, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see him do that. But his history says he is more likely to package picks to trade down, and move at least one pick for a selection in a higher round in 2012. Given the flexibility he has—he could do all three.

The great advantage the Patriots have over most organizations in the draft game is they are not looking at the draft as a way to stop bleeding. They are looking at the draft as a way to make the muscle bigger. Theirs is a long-term program, and the way they keep multiplying picks is a self perpetuating process.

The back and forth between the NFL and FKA-NFLPA continued today with volleys fired from both sides. Right now it seems pretty bleak, and it definitely looks like the impasse will head well into at least the start of training camp.

They only really get down to business when they’re right up against a deadline, so I’m not expecting serious negotiations at least until August hits.

Then it becomes a question of how many regular season games will be lost.

What if it goes into September, how far can it go before the season is lost? November? December?

So not a whole lot to feel great about with the NFL right now. In times like these I just need a little Manning Face to cheer me up.

“Peterson plays like a low-test guy,” one NFL decision maker told PFW on the condition he remain anonymous, “but [if] he’s in ‘cat’ [man-to-man] coverage in the NFL, it’s not as big of an issue as it will be for offensive guys.”

“He’s a press corner,” another longtime evaluator said. “His strong suit is that he can run and press. He won’t play for the Patriots, where he’s disguising coverage after coverage, but I still think he can be a No. 1 shutdown corner.”

Nolan Nawrocki via PFW on Patrick Peterson, consensus best defensive back, and bottom 5 wonderlic guy.

So yeah, this will drop the guy I have #2 overall on my Patriots big board.
