Well, I'm heading out soon, and probably won't be able to get up the complete 3-rounder until next Tuesday or so.....so I thought I'd just throw out the first few picks, plus the Pats, for discussion purposes....

1. MIA - Chris Long
2. STL - Dorsey
3. ATL - Jake Long
4. OAK - Gholston
5. KC - Clady
6. Trade...NYJ trades #6, Dwayne Robertson, and a 4th to BAL for #8 & 38. BAL takes Matt Ryan.
7. Trade...NE trades #7 to DET for #15 & 76. If NE keeps the pick it's Groves. DET takes McFadden.
8. NYJ - Ellis
9. CIN - Rivers
10. NO - McKelvin
11. BUF - M. Kelly
12. DEN - Philips
13. CAR - Harvey
14. CHI - D. Thomas
15. NE - Groves


48. ATL - T. Porter
49. PHI trades #49 to NE for #62 & 94. NE takes Cason.

69. Goff

76. Demps. Best player on my board here is WR Bennett, but he'd probably be inactive every game, so the choice was between WR Royal and S Demps, as they add value in the return game.

Recap:
Q Groves
A Cason
J Goff
Q Demps

Strategy: Draft the best available Quentin

I prefer take a CB in First Round, and Avril in second or third.

Love the Goff pick!

I guess that you are really thinking of going all D, all the time in this years draft. I like your choices but I'm really thinking that we might go O-Line on one of our first day picks. Then again, I thought that last year...

I know the Heatster sees the draft well, but I was under impression Cason doesn't last much into the 2nd. Is this possible or are you wearing Patriots goggles?

That would be a great draft, BTW, IMO.

Define "not lasting much into the second"...... pick 49 is right about half way thru the second round......

Looks good!

I Like this alot!!! the strategy is great hopefully the players will be there

Does that mean the Pats will be hiring Quentin Tarantino to make their films?

I should re-word as early second round as the latest. Which is picks 32-42 (top 1/3rd.)

If I'm not mistaken, (don't have my notes), he's the 7th CB taken. It seems possible to me that he'd be there at 49. We talk about him quite a bit, but I don't think he enjoys such support from other fanbases.

Me likey except for the Demps pick. Assuming Meriweather stays at safety (I wouldn't assume a move to CB would be successful), how many do we need? Particularly when #76 is a prime place to catch a slipping CB after all the other teams have gorged themselves on the position. Some of the following will likely be around at that point in the draft:

Branden Flowers
Chevis Jackson
Terrell Thomas
Zach Bowman
Dwight Lowery
Trae Williams

I know the Pats can't possibly like all these guys, but I would figure at least one of them would make their draft board. So dump Demps and pour me a Chevis and you got yourself a deal...
