Its the 56th overall pick. Dillon was a 2nd rounder, so it seems fair.
Word here is Beilichick and Pioli were showing some interest in Maurice Clarett, figuring they could nab him in the 2nd round rather than maneuvering higher in the first to go after Stephen Jackson or take a chance on the stock dropping fast Kevin Jones.
When the court order ruling Clarett ineligible came down, the Pats brain trust shifted gears, contacting the Bungles who were already negotiating with Dallas, Denver and the Raidahs to deal Dillon.
Anyway...now imagine Tom Brady's play action with Dillon as teh feature back...can you say Dynasty?
Just got to get his attitude in line, playing for a winner should be all the tonic he needs.
And come Saturday we still have 2 first rounders and a second rounder and no longer a presing need for a RB. So Belichick will be able to draft defense and line help like he would anyway, and once again can you say "Dynasty"?
And Ty LAw must be losing a step if the Miami police could catch him on foot.
