Default What's left now—what to do with it?

The Pats currently have four picks in the third (one of which is an untradeable comp pick), zero picks in the fourth, their comp picks in the fifth and sixth, and their own pick in the seventh.

Any thoughts (wild-***** guesses) on what the Pats do with that bounty of thirds?

Good question. I was wondering about it as well. I assume they might trade a couple of them for a couple of second rounders next year. Otherwise, I can't figure out what they will do with them.

They are probably going to either have to trade up or into next year's draft. Maybe trade for a veteran who came expendable from rtoday's draft. They still have too many draft picks than what will make the team. Gotta get some value for some of the picks.

As far as targets. I think LB is still an issue. I think Jason Taylor is likely to be a Pat in the next month or so, but they could get a guy to groom for the future assuming Crable or Woods aren't that guy. Still need depth inside and not convinced Guyton can be an every down ILB.

Sign Jason Taylor as an OLB and draft Jason Williams or someone like him for ILB depth. Umm there's not a lot of needs left to fill. Trade into 2010? I think Jarron Gilbert will go off the board early tomorrow so we probably won't get him. We might do something like draft another backup QB and a Tight End.

Jason Taylor is not signing or else he would have done so already. The Pats need pass rush and Taylor won't bring it. He would be jag in the rotation with Woods and TBC.
I could see the Pats taking a specialist like Micheal Johnson to bring in on 3rd downs and get better in the pass rush department. We can have all the DBs in the world, but without a pass rush it won't mean a thing.

I like these guys.

J.Luigis - C/G - Arkansas
A. Cook - TE - So. Carolina
J. Gilbert - DE - San Jose St
S.McKillop - ILB - Pitt
D. Butler - WR - PSU
A. Brown - RB - NC ST
L.Sidbury - OLB/DE - Richmond
J.Iglesias- WR - Oklahoma
J.Phillips - LB - TCU

There's some good players there. I didn't mention a couple of tackles and db's because we've already gone there.

What you think is apparently not what Belichick thinks. He is saying from what he didn't draft, is that Guyton is a current and a future permanent starter. Further he thinks he has a hidden gem or two at OLB that he is incubating.

Yeah, I like Gilbert, Cornelius Ingram, Shawn Nelson, Kraig Urbik, Jarrett Dillard... lotta good guys out there.

Generally speaking, you'd say they should go LB, but who? Jason Williams is still there. Tyrone McKenzie, Frantz Joseph, Julius Williams (watch for him because BB hinted at some lower-round Connecticut guys he liked), Jasper Brinkley, Sidbury.

Lots of good wideouts left, lots of running backs, and lots of good interior linemen.
