    Going back to 2008, which is when Matthew Slater was drafted, the New England Patriots have found the following gems in the later rounds.

    Matthew Slater, Julian Edelman, Marcus Cannon, Alfonso Dennard, and Ryan Izzo.

    Frankly, I think we've done a better job. Seems like the reporter is just throwing out Slater because of name recognition.

    True, but let's remember, he wasn't the GM making the picks. For all we know, his list of players HE wanted is full of pro bowlers.

    According to Wikipedia he's been a scout for the Falcons since leaving TN.

    In Ruston’s defense, he wanted to hire Mike Zimmer as our head coach and Zimmer wanted the job. Tommy Smith forced him to hire Whisenhunt. Who knows what would have happened had Webster been able to choose his own head coach?
