Eric Edholm, from ProFootballWeekly.com, reports various injuries to former third-round OLB Shawn Crable have made him mostly an afterthought in the Patriots' quest to find pass-rush solutions.

Footballguys view: Some in the scouting community believe New England will select a couple of pass rushers early in the draft. The Patriots constantly compile draft picks, and own 4 of the first 53 picks in the 2010 NFL Draft.
