Just to start this is not a sky is falling thread. We all know we need a olb and a pass rush, the guy can certainly rush the passer. The kid seems to be turning into a beast. He was projected to be picked by us on many mocks and taken useing a pick we had. He may not have been as productive in our system.

My question is do you think we should have picked him as the obvious replacement for mike verbal?

I was very happy with the draft last year so this isn't me saying we can't draft we have just made some poor choices higher and got better value at lower levels.

Again???

We didn't draft him, lets get over it!

Hell, I was rooting for them to take Matthews, Laurinitis, Connor, anybody the last few years. Hopefully if the opportunity's there to take the BC kid, they will. The fact is they've needed linebackers for awhile now.

I know, In Bill We Trust, but sometimes I wonder where his head is when it comes time to draft linebackers. What did he see in Spikes and the rest of these guys that isn't there in Matthews and Laurinitis and the rest?

Up until 1993, I didn't know the nickname 'Patsies' was an insult... that's what I grew up with during the late 80's and early 90's.

Go PATRIOTS!

i agree. he would have made a much bigger impact than Chung.

"He’s the greatest quarterback to ever play the game. He goes from being a rookie that nobody is expecting anything from, to taking over with people saying he can’t do it, to winning three Super Bowls....It should already be obvious he’s the greatest quarterback to ever have played. "

Heinsight is 20/20.Happens alot heck 31 teams passed on Brady.We had a great draft and ther 2010 one will be big in the teams success now and down the road.

Let's hope what he sees is there if the guy has an impact similar to that at the start of his second year I will be over the moon

I forget the exact run of trades, but, IIFC, the 21st pick in the 2009 draft netted the Patriots Butler, Tate, Edelman and Gronk.

So, as much as I'd love to have Clay Matthews, I have no complaints that we didn't draft him.

Now if we had only drafted Beason or Woodley instead of Merriweather...

Right. There isn't enough time in the day to discuss players that this board (myself included) wanted to draft who did nothing in the NFL.
