The philosophy in New England and before that in Cleveland when BB and Pioli were there and before that with the Parcells/BB/9rennel/Groh Giants is that you build frpom the lines out.
The place where the Patriots have had the most draft success is on the DL. They went against conventional wisdom and picked Richard Seymour at 6 when the media and fans wanted David Terrell. In 2002 they drafted Jarvis Green in the 4th. In 2003 the media and fans wanted them to trade up for Dwayne Robertson but they picked Ty Warren at 14. In 2004 they drafted Wilfork.
They want to play 3-4. You HAVE to have a good NT.
