Falcoholic Draft Countdown: New England Patriots, #7

1. Chris Long, DE, Miami Dolphins
2. Jake Long, OT, St. Louis Rams
3. Glenn Dorsey, DT, Atlanta Falcons
4. Darren McFadden, RB, Oakland Raiders
5. Ryan Clady, OT, Kansas City Chiefs
6. Vernon Gholston, LB, New York Jets

The Jets snatched athletic freak Gholston right out from under the Patriots' nose, re-igniting a rivalry that can only be ended with a dancing street fight like in West Side Story. Now the Patriots have to go looking to fill other needs.

Pats Pulpit covers your Patriots needs, though I'm sad to see that blogger tommasse is retiring. Good luck out there, buddy. In the meantime, though, know that the Patriots could use help in the secondary above all else. I'd be surprised if they passed on a cornerback with Gholston gone, but the Pats are always searching for value and may surprise me. So research if you will and then return here for what in the business call "the same damn thing you've been doing for a week."
