Want a Safety -- Meet Patrick Chung - Page 2 - New England Patriots Forums

I like Chung, but no earlier than 58. I really think he could be something special with the Pats. He is my contigency plan in case we don't get Delmas, Smith or Moore. The reason I like Chung at 58 is because I think he will still be there when we pick. Maybe a small trade up. If Belichick decides to go later with Safety I'm hoping it will be him.

But I wouldn't be at all unhappy with Chung if the others are off the board.

My concern is that Delmas may not have the smarts to make the calls back there. To me Chung is Rodney redux, and thus would be my first choice. Moore would be my preference over Smith (who is reported to have great athletiicism but poor technique).

You have to love the fact that Chung has'nt been playing oranized football that long, he might have great upside.
