I think we should call this the skilll position draft.

BB/SP have decided that with the trenches well addressed in the past few drafts, it was time to address the so called skill positions.

Consider the Patriot Skill positions after this offseason:

QB: Tom Brady Probowler SB MVP
Doug Flutie long time NFL starter and CFL Grey Cup champ
Matt Cassel a developmental QB find; QB rating over 100 as rookie

RB: Corey Dillon 2nd round franchise back and probowler
Kevin Faulk 2nd round All SEC and best 3dn back
Laurence Maroney 1st round and 2nd best back in 2006 draft

FB: Garrett Mills 4th round first rated FB and H back
Patrick Pass jack of all trades

TE: Dan Graham 1st round & complete TE
Ben Watson 1st round & great speed
David Thomas 3rd round & great hands will grow and develop blocking

WR: Deon Branch 2nd round & SB MVP
Reche Caldwell 2nd round and potential #1 quality
Chad Jackson 2nd round & potential #1 quality with great speed
Bethel Johnson 2nd round & great speed & feared KR
Troy Brown ex-probowler fading vet

Across the board the skill positions are now well fortified. We can expect a former ex-starter vet to augment the QBs should Flutie retire.

BB/SP have decided that game changing plays are made by well above average skill position players, and they have gone and stocked up there as well as the trenches.
