Until the Patriots resolve the Asante Samuel situation, the team will carry a hole in its loaded-up roster.
And a guy who might be able to fill it will be on display today.
Cornerback Paul Oliver will work out for NFL scouts, coaches and personnel officials this morning on the Georgia campus he’s called home for the past four years in advance of the July 12 supplemental draft. Oliver was a starter the past two years for the Bulldogs, and planned to return as a fifth-year senior in the fall.
He did consider declaring for the draft in January but decided against it, despite being on shaky academic ground. After the spring semester, the university declared Oliver academically ineligible for the fall. MORE

I hope the Bills are looking at him also today... I've heard many times this guy is a projected first rounder next year. With our luck, I can see NE making a play for him.. They do have a pair of first rounders next year.. sounds like he'll go in the second round of the supplemental.
