Belichick on Cam Jordan

I remember an interview just after that draft where CSP said his son was griping at him during the first round that they picked Cam instead of Ingram like he'd been expecting after how much CSP had gone on about Ingram before the draft. In that interview, CSP said he told his son, "This is a special player."

I did wonder after seeing that if the conversation prompted them to make the trade up later in the round to get Ingram, too, but bottom line, CSP was absolutely correct in his evaluation of Cam. He has been, and continues to be, a special player. He absolutely was the right choice that day, no matter how much they liked Ingram, and has paid dividends ever since.
