I've gotta agree...plus he has JJ Watt still on the board. Look at the measurables between the two:

Bowers : 6'4" 275
Watt : 6'6" 292

One was a walk on and classified as a Hard Working - Locker room - High Motor guy. The Other was a one year wonder, with a knee issue.

Don Banks, sorry buddy, you failed.

I'll say I'm sorry if the cards fall like this...but I highly doubt Bowers is on BB's draft board in round 1.

Costanzo and Watt in Rd one...even if BB has to trade up, would be a very good start for the Pats draft......get a RB in round 2 or 3 ....

Trading down for good players instead of staying put for potentially VERY good players should be minimized by BB in this draft...a trade out into next year would be ok, but he's already got a team loaded with youngsters....not all the picks will make the final roster...need quality over quantity out of this draft ..

very good point. we have alot of solid guys, now we need some all stars. im all for getting a RB in round 2....as long as that RB's name is Ingram. I know there are alot of haters here with him, but I think hes a special talent. Dont care if its at 17, 28 or 33. Just want him.

bowers over watt?

the guy is an idiot

no point of taking someone at 28 if that body is going to be at 33 in terms of ingram......

in his scenario, watt, sherrod, reed would be the best possible

Apparently every team has cleared Ingrams knee. Dr. Andrews cleared his knee. and he wasnt asked for a medical recheck from the combine, like most players with injury concerns are. The guy gets hurt one year and now hes got the body of a 33 year old??...not buying it. Hes a complete back that can do everything. Like i said, get him at 17, 28 or 33....just get him.
