If I have learned anything about the Patriots when it comes to drafting (or anything else for that matter) it's expect the unexpected. I realize that we are already loaded on the D line but with Warren's contract coming up and Seymour's injury troubles as of late, do you see the Patriots passing on Adam Carriker if he's sitting there at 24? I realize we have much bigger needs right now but that has been the case the past few years and they always seem to do the exact opposite. What do you think?

Carriker won't be there at 24 at this point...he's a monster

we just resigned Seymour to a big contract..we dont draft a guy to wait till Sey gets hurt..we have Green and Warren willl get resigned.


im comforatble with Green as the main backup and even starter actually..and if u draft Carriker and then you resign Warren b/c hes 1 of the best players on the team, what happens to Carriker? Teams wont give u equal value that u drafted the player @

I'm saying maybe it's a possibility that they have no intentions of resigning Warren. Green is a situational pass rush type player, Carriker is an every down type player, to have three quality guys at DE to rotate would not be a bad problem to have. Judging by our past drafts, would it be that big of a surprise if they took him if by some miracle he dropped that far? I mean Wilfork wasn't supposed to drop as far as he did either.

HEY BRO! WHAT UP?

I wouldn't be suprised if they did. If he is the best on the board, why not? I believe in the taking the best player available regardless of position. I don't like it when teams select a player based on need instead of value. That is why good teams draft well and bad teams draft because of need and players turn out to be dissapointments. I have never heard of the guy, but I will get very familiar with him come draft time.

The guy I think could be the surprise pick is Joe Staley, OT from Central Michigan. He's an athletic LT prospect, and a former TE. They could groom him to take over for Light, freeing him to be the RT.

It wouldn't shock me.

I think they'll go with josh Gattis (S, Wake Forest) with their second pick, reaching a little. He's been favorably compared to Rodney, and I think he's rated higher than Griffin from Texas.

Just do a little reading on him. He completely blew up at the Senior Bowl and is skyrocketing up everyone's boards. The combine is yet to come though so things could change alot.

why wouldnt u have intention of resigning warren when he was the defensive MVP?

and Carriker isnt dropping..hes a late 1st..not an early first so "dropping" isnt the term..

Alk

I don't really care for the idea of moving Light to RT considering the kind of coin we're paying him.

Too much money? I don't know, it's just a thought. I also said having three DEs like Seymour, Warren and Carriker wouldn't exactly be a horrible problem to have.
