Draft Day Needs: RB, LB, Safety - New England Patriots Forums

newton_tom_cat · 03-12-2007, 07:18 AM

now that we've addressed WR need in Free Agency, we still need to find another back to go with the unproven maroney. also need a strong safety to replace the old and oft-injured Harrison. lastly need a MLB to replace the comatose bruschi. with our first pick i really hope we get the LB patrick willis. although i hear the toronto bills have their eye on him at #12. maybe we can trade bruschi and harrison for their #12. i know they're addicted to washed up patriots. heck they even wanted to talk to dillon until he straight armed them and said "sorry, contenders only." if they get willis it will be a waste of what looks like outstanding LB talent.

That phrasing is almost as offensive as the underlying point is stupid.

That would be a good deal! While we're at it, why not trade Ray Mickens to the Browns for the #3 pick? Maybe package Kelvin Kight and Eric Alexander and trade them to the Raider for their first round pick. I'd go for that in a heartbeat!

If the problem with Maroney is that he's unproven, why would we draft another RB? Maroney will be just fine with Faulk, Evans, and the new guy.

insurance. if you have 2 unprovens you still have 2x better chance one of them will work out. maroney needs to see competition too. his performance last year didn't make him a #1 in my mind
