Colorado State’s Weston Richburg among centers that the Patriots have taken a closer look at with a private workout.
- Colorado State center Weston Richburg popped up on the radar late last week after it was learned the Patriots put him through one of their many private workouts, this one coming in Fort Collins, Colo. Richburg, at 6-foot-3 3/8 and 298 pounds, is the highest-rated center in the draft. He’s projected as a late first rounder to an early second rounder, which makes you wonder if the team is considering using their first round pick on him. Would you be upset if the Patriots drafted a center with their first rounder?
