FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) -- The Patriots picked up two new targets for Tom Brady - or whoever is playing quarterback for New England when the season starts - while also adding a couple of linebackers on Day 3 of the NFL draft on Saturday and a lineman with a long football pedigree.
Illinois guard Ted Karras is the grand-nephew of Pro Bowl defensive lineman Alex Karras and also the son and grandson of NFL players. In all, seven members of the Karras family played football in the Big Ten and four went on to NFL careers.
