Brzezinsky not clipping anyone is really naive. After their success with the Dolphins Tice admitted they tried to do it again but didn't want to over do it and screw up with another team.
As Belichick pointed out in an interview with the NE papers, teams call about moving up and players all the time. The only person who could convince Spielman about other teams going for Carey would be Brzezinsky or he just panicked on his own.
No way in hell can anyone argue sucessfully that NE wanted Carey in the first round with that gapping hole in the middle of their DL. They didn't even draft an OL in this draft.
Dallas could have wanted Carey but the Dallas papers confirmed the Cowboys were not after him. Spielman also acknowledged it was a victory over the Patriots.
The other point, Buffalo called the Dolphins to move up to get Losman and turned down the deal. You don't think they mentioned who was willing to take less??? The Cowboys???
Spielman wanted Carey and did what he though needed to be done to get him. I have no problem with that but he got Hosed doing so.
