We take a TE. Ugh. Jermaine Gresham. Huge, fast kid out of Oklahoma.

WalterFootball.com: 2010 NFL Mock Draft: First Round Continued

I have trouble not shoring up the defense if it goes according to this mock, leaving Brandon Graham, Jason Odrick, or Carlos Dunlap on the board. Even with Ben Watson likely gone, we need to incorporate the talent we have at that position--I still wish we hadn't given up on Dave Thomas, who was injury plagued--and I'd rather use a not-much-later round (2nd or 3rd) for it.

But if Gresham is the next Tony Gonzalez, I'm in. I have no idea.

Do any of you?

I like their second round better... Hughes, Ghee, Andre Roberts (a reach, but I like the kid)

Yeah I dont mind going BPA in a lesser need as long as we adress the rest of the needs in the second and through free agency. Id probably go Dunlap or Griffen with the pick though.

Bottom line, played at a big time program and was very productive. I've lost my lust for position players that run in the 4.3s and 4s. If there is one thing players like Welker and Brown have shown us is speed isn't everything. Getting open and short line speed can be a much better asset. I want to look at his combine as a hole and see what the Pats thought of him in their interview.

I take WalterFoootball.com [sic] with a truckful of salt. As I've said before, he's been on a Patriot-bashing binge for some time now.

Anyone who says "The Patriots take BPA" in the first round doesn't understand how the Patriots draft.

i would be dissapointed with a TE but not surprised
hes a good player but i dont think TE is a major need on a team that does not use their TE
which is amazing since BB has spent 2 1st round picks on TE's

how is having the pats take a TE "patriot bashing"?

NePatriots

My problem with Gresham is he can't block for crap. Give me Dray, Moeaki, even McCoy.

I'm not saying it is per se; I'm just stating that the folks who run that site are not fans of the Patriots.

BPA in a lesser need is what I said. Most would agree that Pass Rush is the biggest need for us, DE, TE, RB, OG, and WR are all lesser needs IMO. I would have no problem if the Pats went BPA at any of these positions if a first round quality pass rusher isnt on the board at 22. In other words, I would have no problem if the Pats went Odrick, Williams, Gresham, Tate, or Spiller at 22 if they were available and a pass rusher wasnt.
