I want Jerry Hughes if he is available in the first round by the time we pick.If not i want the DE from florida, Dunlap.Thats if we dont go after Peppers.

I wouldn't take Hughes in the 1st, and I'd take Dunlap over him in a heartbeat. I'd seriously consider him at 42/47 depending on who else is available.

I think Hughes is great off the edge.People will get scare cause he plays for Tcu.Either way we need to adress the DE situation in the first round unless they went after Peppers.

I have seen him play a lot on TV and like him. He can pass rush which is what I like.
Reading the posts here; most don't want us to draft him.

From all I've read he's a speed rushing version of Shawn Crable in terms of his build. I don't know what his OLB experience is in coverage, and there is a question on his strength at the point of attack... If Crable is a third round value, then I can't get too excited about projections having NE take this kid at #22, but it's early days yet in the research. I thought his knee comment warranted awareness for draftniks so I posted his diary, we'll see if he talks about interviewing with NE down the road.

To be quote honest, he scares me a lot as a stand up OLB.

I think he does better with his hand in the ground. There are better stand-up potential guys in the draft that I hope we take.

here is my take on hughes. if he is drafted by any of the 3-4 teams. by mid season everyone on the bord will be saying BB should have drafted him he is a amazing pass rusher. but if the pats draft him by mid season everyone will be saying he is a bust.


BB's defense is all about stoping the run on first and 2th down and on 3rd down puting as many DB's as he can on the field to cover. not a whole lot of blizting. so if he can't set the edge. and i don't think he can he will never get on the field. and he would need to cover on 3rd down as will not just rush the QB. look at AD on more then half of the 3rd downs that AD was on the field he was covering a TE or a RB not just rushing the QB.


BB is not all about sacks that why only 2 player have ever got 10+ sacks in the 10 years as HC of the pats. if u wanna play LB for BB you have to do a little bit of everything.

I live in Ft. Worth (TCU country)... Jerry Hughes is solid, very good now that I think about it. I worry that his lack of games against elite competition will hurt him in the NFL. I would love this pick in the 2nd round.

Meant to add this to my last post. I would like to see the Pats draft Sergio Kendal from Texas. His junior season with Orakpo he was more explosive because he wasn't doubled. But he's played both DE/OLB so the conversion to either would be a nice fit. My only fear is that he'll be gone by #22, if he has one of those crazy combine workouts.
