With the 62nd pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, the Patriots have selected Brandon Spikes, inside linebacker from Florida.
Spikes should play SILB, or the “Mike”, for the Patriots. This will potentially allow Jerod Mayo to move to the “Will” position. Spikes isn’t the fastest linebacker (5.0 40 yard dash) but he has great instincts and tackling skills. Spikes was quoted in his media conference call saying, “Bill Belichick knows pretty much everything about me.”
Spikes joins Devin McCourty, Rob Gronkowski, and Jermaine Cunningham as the newest Patriots.
The Patriots have traded the 58th pick in the NFL Draft to the Houston Texans. They received the 62nd and 150th picks in return.
With the 53rd pick in the NFL Draft, the New England Patriots have selected Florida DL Jermaine Cunningham. The former Gator figures to become an OLB conversion in the Patriots 3-4 defense.
The prototypical sized (6-3/252) Cunningham is a quick guy that ran a 4.59 in the 40-yard dash. This is the pass-rush that the Patriots have been looking for.
Cunningham joins Devin McCourty and Rob Gronkowski as 2010 Patriots Draft Picks.
The Patriots have traded the 47th pick to the Arizona Cardinals. The Patriots will receive the 58th and 89th picks in return.
With the 42nd Pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, the New England Patriots have selected Arizona TE Rob Gronkowski. The Patriots jumped ahead two spots in a trade with the Oakland Raiders. The Patriots gave the Raiders the 190th pick to move up.
The Ariona TE has had some major medical issues, but nobody can question his amazing skill set. Gronkowksi had this to say about the injury speculation. “My back is 100 percent and I don’t want to talk about it anymore.”
He blocks well and runs crisp routes. The Patriots only have one tight end on the roster that has played NFL football, the recently acquired Alge Crumpler.
