Being in the know as much as you are supposed to be, I know you remember that report was false and Minny just bluffed us out of a pick. There was no attempt to move up by NE. In fact NE basically ignored oline in that draft so if they wanted a lineman so bad, wouldn't they have drafted one. Thier first 4 picks were defense and there were some solid oline prospects they could have drafted. I think people that think that NE was so set on Carey just base that on Minnesota's bluff because its fairly strange of a team that needs oline help to totally bypass it in draft just because one player goes off the board. They could have drafted Max Starks, Travelle Wharton Sean locklear, Jacob Bell or Rex Hadnot. There is not one shred of evidence that NE was interested in Carey, not that we could produce evidence on anything on this board but I do find it strange that a team would look OL in the first and ignore thereafter.
Mmhmm. Ben Watson, that famous defensive player. Not to mention, that several "legitimate" sites you mention had the Patriots taking Vernon Carey, and that several others mentioned a possible trade up scenario...whyever for? Some even had Carey moving off the board at 19 to the Vikings with the original pick. Why you can't just let this go after close to 4 years of being wrong and called on it yearly is beyond me.
