he's an open field right now and Gman might taking the distance no flags that we see and rookie Julian edelman's in the endzone Julian Edelman the Patriot seventh ground looking CR this is West Welker in progress he looks just like him on the field Julian Edelman had arrived or so he thought I was kind of like having epiphanies that like me and W Welker in the slot together and uh that didn't happen you have to be a man no excuses the world doesn't care if you want something you go out and earn it and you go out and get it I've never been big enough fast enough or strong enough to play uh you know my dad would always say let's just you know worry about what we can worry about let's go out and practice we practiced a lot like 7 days a week 132nd pick New England has selected Julian Edelman wide receiver from Kent State we were 15 to 20,000 balls behind that receiver that played four years in college we had a lot of catching up today I used to be a quarterback I didn't play a snap at receiver until I got to the NFL I would wake up early and study with Coach we worked on everything had to line up how to read a Defender how to break a jam now I'm a wide receiver from the 9yd line loss looks to the right Brady Under Pressure avoids the saine gets it away throws to the end zone touchdown Julian Elman he was very tough on me the the bad news edelman's whether it was wrong or

he has some slag on him I feel he put Julian in position he's going to play he's going to play it good too they call his know he just come out and get it done I think what's most interesting is he development early on as a punt returner now he's averaged 12.6 yard per return in his career that's number three all time he's loose Julian Edelman will they catch give no touchdown New England before the 2013 season the Patriots opted not to resign Wes Welker the door was finally open for Edelman Julian Edelman Danny amola seriously I'm Batman Julian Adelman is a great story wasn't even invited to
