When asked what he took from the NFL combine, Mesko responded, "an M.R.I. machine."

He must have beamed it (punted it?) up.  Those things are big and heavy.

Zoltan Mesko, P (5th round), Patriots

There's no one more unheralded than a punter, is there? But often times, there's no one more important. At the University of Michigan, Mesko was called, in beautiful redundant fashion, the "Space Emperor Of Space." Of Romanian descent, the Space Emperor speaks five languages, earned undergraduate and graduate degrees and was dubbed the most interesting man in the NFL by the Wall Street Journal. When asked what he took from the NFL combine, Mesko responded, "an M.R.I. machine."

Still, it comes down to talent and Mesko has it. With a huge leg and accuracy, Mesko is the only punter in Patriots camp and could prove to be huge in the ever-important field-position battles of blustery fall afternoons.
