I won't argue Rivers won't be a good player down the road. In limited playing time, he had 37 tackles with an interception. But to compare a player that only played seven games versus someone who started 16 is illogical. Even if Rivers' number were projected to 16 games he's far behind Mayo's production. Sorry Rivers that you got your jaw broke by Pittsburgh Steelers WR Hines Ward, but that's football.

I said the pick would had been Keith Rivers if N.E. didn't trade out of the seventh pick.
Let me say that I'm a huge fan of this pick. The Patriots really needed a linebacker and got one. They also saved a little money in the process by dropping three slots and upgraded a fifth round pick, turning it into a third round pick, their third pick in that round. They can get a dramatically better player to start day two.

Time to get his replacement
7. New England Patriots – LB Keith Rivers, USC
He can play inside or outside and the Patriots love versatile players
8. Baltimore Ravens – CB Mike Jenkins, South Florida

Heck, he even wears #50 like Vrabel does for the Patriots
LB Keith Rivers, USC
He follows a long line of famous #55s, including Willie McGinest and currently Junior Seau
LB Cliff Avril, Purdue

n quickens the heart rate of the teams in love with Run DMc.
Maybe the same can be said about the Keith Rivers visit.
Rivers is the top rated linebacker in the draft and there isn't any question about the Patriots' need for the versatile athlete. Sideline-to-sideline speed, can play the run or the pass equally well, and smart enough to play either inside or outside.
