Caleb Lomu is good news. New England Patriots fans could use that

At 10:44 p.m. Thursday, fans of the New England Patriots were offered a respite from the tumult. That’s when Caleb Lomu, a 6-foot-6, 310-pound tackle out of Utah, was announced as the team’s first-round pick in the NFL Draft.The news came a bit earlier than expected, this because the Patriots moved up to get Lomu, swapping their 31st pick and a fourth-round pick to the Buffalo Bills for the 28th overall. And that was a good thing in this respect: The sooner Pats fans were able to get some good news, the better.Advertisement
