Cardinals | Team loses sixth-round draft pick to Patriots
Thu, 8 Feb 2007 16:09:23 -0800

Mike Reiss, of the Boston Globe, reports the Arizona Cardinals sent their sixth-round draft pick in the upcoming draft to the New England Patriots to complete the trade for OT Brandon Gorin that took place prior to the 2006 season. The sixth-round draft pick is the sixth overall pick in that round.

I think most of us thought it was the 7th pick.

Not that bad of a gamble if Gorin is let go. If Grimm can coach him up, a sixth isn't too bad for depth.

Got this off the Great Blue North Draft Site:

New England has a conditional #7 from Arizona (OT Brandon Gorin; could escalate to a 6th rounder depending on productivity)

How did this escalate to a 6th rounder based on productivity as Green never played him???? Did he even suit up for any games?

NFL.com says zero games started and zero games played in.

Boy that Green was kind of a dummy.

I HATE the Pats more than any other team in the NFL.

I thought that this was the case too.

I thought it was going to be a 7th because he never played ... ???

It is a 6th.

The conitional pick was a 6th if he made the final roster and a 7th if he was cut.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Indeed joe is!!!

So why didnt the Cards cut him prior to Week 17 and then resign him as a FA?

Because the Texans would have signed him off of waivers before he cleared for the Cardinals.

I still dont understand how he can start for the Pats for almost 2 seasons and not for the Cards?

Gorin may have been the happiest player on the Cards when Green was fired. I wouldn't be at all surprised to hear his name resurface this offseason as a potential starter.
