While most quarterbacks buy their linemen a watch or maybe treat them to some Micky D's, Tom Brady went out and got Dan Koppen, Logan Mankins and Stephen Neal nice new cars - Audi Q7 SUVs to be exact. Not a bad haul. But why such extravagant gifts? “Now you'll be well protected, just like you make [...]

The Mankins beard. Lord knows this isn't a new issue, but if I have a chance to interview professional athletes about their facial hair, I feel compelled to try. Logan Mankins, on his beard: "When you're a lineman you just grow a beard, and wherever it grows and however long it grows in certain spots, you just let it." Five of the Pats' linemen have beards. And the others? "There's a couple guys who...

Also on the line are Pittsburgh’s Alan Faneca, New England's Logan Mankins and Indy's Jeff Saturday. Together they will block for starters [...]

If I’m reading this correctly, there are quite a few Pats going to Hawaii: Randy Moss Matt Light Logan Mankins Dan Koppen Tom Brady Vince Wilfork Mike Vrabel Asante Samuel Holy Shit! Awesome! Washington's Sean Taylor was selected posthumously to the NFC starting roster. That's really cool. Jacksonville’s Fred Taylor was snubbed again this year. Poor guy. Overall, an awesome day for Patriots fans. There’s...

Filed under: Patriots , Vikings , NFL Draft , Minnesota Take a look at the first round of the 2005 NFL draft . If you were to take those 32 players, put all their names in a hat, and draw them randomly, you'd probably come up with a better ordering of how good they are than the NFL's general managers came up with. At the top of the 2005 first round is 49ers quarterback Alex Smith , who's looking more...

Out off California's Route 140, a little more than halfway between Merced and Mariposa as the Steinbeck drives, Logan Mankins grew up on a 10,000-acre ranch in a place called Catheys Valley. He wanted to rope cattle for a living on the professional rodeo circuit. He outgrew his dreams. He topped out at 6 foot 4 and 310 pounds, which ...

A not uncommon opinion among fans and observers of the New England Patriots is that Matt Light is a dog of a left tackle while left guard Logan Mankins is Pro Bowl material. I’m not convinced that either is correct. As left tackle, Light generally faces the best pass rusher the opposing team has, week after [...]
