[0:05]" But into the thrust of what for all the ethnic."

[0:17]" I and my grand formulas and roughly flat I cast and sometimes can't and then. In the attack could happen. The latest news on the interest. Yeah."

[0:32]" floor with a roster report on the eve of the NFL draft obviously all the pocket about the draft that impact the patriots roster and out before -- to a few things related to that few other items about the rock or not but quickly the -- actions that he made this week. And they were big. Sean will be. Has retired he will not be in the patriot offensive tackle next year. You practice squad last year he had retired and just as important -- and long snapper 48. His only experience in the NFL came during the 2004 offseason when he was signed by the bills and makeup before -- not want -- and having some sleepless nights this week GO worries about is -- by -- the patriot -- That hasn't he yes yes -- thank you think you've been. What do you make -- the watch them. Oh -- really wanted to say something's I'd enrolled as a commenting on how we do we don't have to more for the got to have skeptics had changed at all that they obviously have to pick -- tackle now in the first round of the draft because the -- retirement and the fact of the devastated all they only have noted that they're go to -- and also -- the patriots that officially signed -- this week we talked about that last Friday it was pretty clear that he was going to be signed last week and that was officials on Tuesday not only did they sign him but -- an uproar because they signed Jersey number 28 to -- it -- we are a lot of bands that are upset that a lack of respect for Corey Dillon right while the at least -- going to act angle. At least it is going to -- the -- vandal normally write you keep it Kiki in the family up I guess we can we can now officially closed the book on the Corey Dillon -- out of his Jersey retired which also bring up a note more than note a story in today's spot globe I'm not sure there was elsewhere -- globe but it on this the tight end apparently reportedly -- an -- foot. I tore off his work out it did. And I report that Michael that. Necessarily that he's and he should recover but it might affect the body Nazis and on any anything you guys heard about that in and what his dad might be at this point. No -- and."

[2:42]" Anything about it we did actually it's funny he was one of Hansel players that we -- we request -- yesterday Andy was working on some stories in an open to talk to somebody that you ended -- talking anymore yes it but Davies on us had a broken David Toms was on a short list of players that we actually -- shouldn't talking to win now on we didn't yet W -- we don't talk to the guy was a story right. But in all seriousness I don't think it probably will affect the regular season but -- W we talk a lot about Chad Jackson. Another year to guy that probably could've really benefited from offseason. And he's going to at least an -- you know while a month or so of on field work so."

[3:25]" And I think advocate in her manager you'll never be able they would miss the first three games -- he probably won't make any gains but. -- never know -- from early -- mid -- whenever -- limited -- those -- security -- role -- from his -- Kyle -- touchdown -- signs -- good -- quickly -- In the mini camp in June and then and then training camp in in the pre season. We talk about the roster now what the patriots might be doing in the draft and we've gone on on about the positions at a price target on it and picks in the draft which positions you know at the do you guys think are the ones of the patriot have to target in the draft because. The make up the roster now -- to create security is where it needs to become the east where where do we -- linebackers in the quarterback. Quarterback bail -- two and one of them an added any. Well I haven't added any I you know you gotta figure with an -- they keep ethnic. Are they don't quarterback who pride via the added at some point wrath we do we do we we joke about tight end. Sometimes it now they've they've if David Thomas does have an injury lots of -- they took -- first round two out of three years a couple of years ago. What do you think the tight end position as you think day eight prizes with a tight end because they valued at his -- in the first round for round Charlie but you know third round as."

[5:20]" One of ten picks Joe sure go to Oregon and where are roughly as as pro football while they write it down at a -- Or a good day second yet and he I don't be shocked because tight ends are the perfect embodies -- like linebackers they placed special teams they fill out a variety of roles in training camp. You can use actual ones on the roster depending how pleased -- they could be active on game -- or special teams be a fourth and it's not an if you draft the nose tackle. You kind of limited to what he's going to do and -- what he does in the pre season and how often he can may be on an active roster that little more versatility with positions like safety linebacker tight and and I think when you get down there you know those -- this year room BHD. I think that it over to a more goal for that value the best player you think -- him because. Look at the hole right so if you think this guy like Mike said you know title god can fill a variety of roles in camp. Why would you take a shot with a guy like that it might be two years from now. Even do anything really for -- this year if the skylight you'll note that Tom made was safe pregnancy -- he's good enough player to make the NFL. Well maybe you'd to a patriots thing you try to find a way to keep around without having him on the roster. Or you have four titans on the roster in just bite the bullet for awhile Kyle Brady probably of one in out kind of so -- they're tired and the rest of the future in you know I wouldn't be done but definitely not. You know definitely not --"

[6:54]" For front we haven't really talked why. -- from the annual. Point on Gonzaga and number he's a franchise -- now the draft weekend can sometimes be an interesting weekend for these guys who are franchise that we talked about we've heard about lance Briggs and rumors that he could be traded. On do you guys -- any movement on the not annual fraud would it be an absolute stunner. If you scientist tender gets traded this weekend. I don't think it would be capsule under Ronald but it happened I'd be surprised were in anybody's -- if there's any -- this weekend right I don't foresee anything I haven't heard anything I'd be more more inclined to say the -- situation somehow involved you know top draft picks and play itself filed. The one thing I'd say -- you asked earlier about you know positions at target. I put defensive back there because -- thing -- thing because I have no idea how to that's going to play out you may need an extra corner or safety and have will Michael and I think you need some more depth. And guys that might have to -- than -- play this September I depending on how the Indian situation as a."

[7:57]" The Redskins have reached an agreement -- bridge that was the rumor I don't know it's official but so -- they're still after. Britain is that the Redskins are morgue at -- of."

[8:06]" Well I'd like this morning or yesterday it'd that rumored to pick up I don't know that definitely is music has picked up my Alley and that that would be sort of Redskins trainer -- walking the 31. In the first round beers and -- break. Well we'll certainly have plenty to talk about on next week's roster report with the roster any but in the meantime a lot to talk about on patriots dot com.
