Butch Davis on NFL Network just said.... - New England Patriots Forums

...when asked through the first two rounds, who has had the best draft...
He said number one the New England Patriots. He said when you get who many feel was the best running back after Reggie Bush with the 21st pick, and then move up in Rd 2 to get the WR who half the teams had rated as the number one receiver, you've done very, very, well.

Second he said was Denver.

Cardinals havent been to shabby either.........

Leinhart
Taitusi
Pope

Along with Edge, Boldin and Fitzy.......thats a solid lineup.

Ours looks good.

Hate to say it, but the Jets look like they've had a really good draft. I really respect Jaws and he loves the QB they got, plus they added two really promising linemen.

Props to the Broncos. They realized that the Snake will never get it done and then did an awful lot of maneuvering to get someone that can.

I think we pulled one over on them with Jackson though. Walker and Jackson are similar in that they are both extremely talented, but won't be ready to contribute at a high level for at least one year. The Pats are just paying a fraction of the price.

What a brilliant mind..........He is right....Pats have had the best draft overall......two TOP 5 Offensive weapons, and defensive needs WILL be addressed.........looking good for the Pats!!!!!

yeah not only did we pay less of a price, (picks and $wise) we forced the issue and gave them no other option by jumping ahead of them. I was really psyched when I watched that pick!

i like houston's as well

Mario
Ryans
Winston
Spencer

On the other hand, If Butch Davis says we had a good draft I feel kind of uneasy about our draft. This is coming from a guy who took Gerrard Warren over Seymour and LT, as well as superstars like William Green, Jeff Faine, and Kellen Winslow Jr.

I'd hate to have to feed those 4; they are about 1200lbs before NFL Beefing up.

Yeah but if his lines too big noodles might not be able to get it over them
