I don't think because someone played in that system that it automatically qualifies them to play in NE. In the case of Sintim, the experience in the system may be a comparative advantage when measuring him against similar prospects at that range of the draft. So for me, I thought that was something to call out. But all of this is pure guesswork, so your point at the lack of Groh grads in the Pats system is well taken. Good question.
