Patriots supposedly interview QBs they have no intention of drafting jjust so they can scout out his weaknessses to use against him when they play the team that does draft him.

Don't worry , in a few years when Rudolph is stinking up the league Squeeler fans can look back and tell us what a thug Mike Brown is for suckering them into drafting Rudolph.

I was wondering that today after reading Walter's (walterfootball.com draft site) thoughts on the pick. He normally praises the Steelers, but gave them a poor grade this year and he didn't care for the Rudolph pick at all. Said he hangs on the ball way too long and lacks arm strength and ability to hit receivers "in a window".

Let's hope I'm wrong
I felt that way too. It made me feel a little better now that he's a Steeler, though.
