LOL.  So it was all about the guards and not Tom Brady?

A notable one of theirs was a guy who we cut, Dan Connolly.
Even more notable?  He was a UDFA for those keeping score at home.

Also, it's always been interesting tracking the Pro Bowl voting for NE linemen.  The are more likely make it when they win or appear in the Super Bowl, but some of the same guys disappear from voting when they don't.

This article pretty much sums it up:
