  • Patriots 3rd round pick out for year



    I'm going to assume that that was one of their picks that they got from us. It looks like TT might be better off in another trade with Belichick. I can't help but think that this is hilarious,

    In before: "I'd wish injury upon no one ... "

    Anyway, the link isn't coming up for me or I might have a better comment.

    ACL or what?

      BOSTON (AP) - New England Patriots third-round draft pick Tyrone McKenzie will miss the 2009 season with a torn ligament in his right knee.

      The outside linebacker from South Florida tore his anterior cruciate ligament during rookie minicamp on Saturday and will be sidelined for the year, a person familiar with the injury said Wednesday night on condition of anonymity because the team did not make an announcement.

      McKenzie was hurt when he and a running back made contact during a pass coverage drill. He fell and grabbed his right knee, but walked off the field on his own. He did not return for the second session of the day.

      The Patriots drafted McKenzie with their second pick of the third round, 97th overall.

      With the trade of longtime starter Mike Vrabel to Kansas City in February, the Patriots needed depth at outside linebacker. Adalius Thomas started last year before being injured. Pierre Woods took over for him, then was sidelined himself.

      McKenzie started his college career in 2004 as a backup at Michigan State, then transferred to Iowa State, where he started in 2006 after sitting out a year as required by the NCAA. He transferred to South Florida, where he started 24 of his 26 games and led the team in tackles in each of his two seasons.


      I would have rather just edited the first post with the story, but I don't believe that I can. I didn't see an edit button for it anyway.

      EDIT: Wow, I'm a dumbass, how did I not see my big ass edit button up there?

        I wonder if Bretsky liked this guy?!
        Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

          Sorry, but the McKenzie pick was a compensatory selection. The picks they got from the Packers were #73 and #83.

            Well there goes my theory. The article wouldn't say where they got the pick but I guess we'll still have to watch and see what the Pats 73 and 83 picks do in the next 3 years.

              I believe they traded at least one of those picks for a second next year, and maybe even both of them were traded.

                poor patriots. Now they are left with just 3 first round picks and 14 second and third rounders to work with.

                They always seem to know when to trade vets and reload.

                  They traded #73 to Jax for a 2nd next year and drafted WR Brandon Tate with #83.

                    LOL. No doubt. They raped that 2009 draft with tons of need/quality picks (something like 6 picks before the 3rd round? How does Bill do it? So what if that one guy blew his ACL. They are/were favs to win the SB this year even before they just reloaded their team for the next couple of years. Wow, doesn't matter, the Patriots are the best run sports team in all of sports.
