I have seen his name brought up several times as a possible target in free agency.
I must admit I have not seen him play much, since I mostly follow the NFC. I certainly will be watching him through the playoffs.
What I do know: he looks pretty stupid on the Brady commercial.
Seriously though, he seems a bit under sized. He actually is no bigger then Al Johnson and he plays center.
I know he was originally signed as an undrafted free agent by the San Francisco 49ers (2001), Ashworth was signed and released by Patriots to their practice squad in 2001. Was signed to the active roster in 2002.
His Scouting Report:
Scouting Report: Tom Ashworth has made significant strides in his game over the past two seasons. Once known primarily as just a good athlete, Ashworth has become a solid offensive tackle at the professional level. Not a dominating blocker, he has the ability to shutdown top-tier defensive ends due to his preparation, work ethic, and positioning. Comes out of his stance well, playing with leverage, uses his hands and arms well. Has experience on both right and left side. Ashworth has the tools to become a solid starting tackle in the league.
I know we have guys on the board who follow the Patriots closely, is this a guy worth even considering?
He is young and proably not too expensive, but with all the good looking tackles in the draft should we include or cross him off the list as possibilities?
