One thing is for certain, he won't be lasting to the 3rd round.
With the 62nd pick in the 2008 NFL Draft, the New England Patriots select OLB Xavier Adibi, Virginia Tech.
The New York Giants are on the clock...

Solid pick. #2 OLB on some boards. Has played inside, so his versatility will be helpfull to the Pats.
