New England Patriots 2007 Draft Preview

Football Betting Lines

04/02/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Patriots have endured perpetual health problems in the secondary, particularly at safety, where Rodney Harrison has missed most of the last two years due to injury. If New England doesn't target secondary help with one of its two first-round picks, it will be a surprise. At linebacker, Tedy Bruschi, Mike Vrabel, Rosevelt Colvin and free agent pickup Adalius Thomas will all be in their 30s when the season starts, so some potential successors at that position are in order. New England was active in acquiring skill position players in the offseason (wideouts Donte' Stallworth, Wes Welker, Kelley Washington, running back Sammy Morris and tight end Kyle Brady), but after releasing Corey Dillon, might look to add another young running back in the event that Laurence Maroney falls victim to injury.
