Besides being the RBs of the defense(easy to replace), we all have to take a look around our division.
There are very few decent recievers, and no team with 2 good ones in our division. Add to that there arent any decent QBs getting them the ball and it tells me only 1 thing.....Draft/trade for the front 7 and stop the running game! You build a team to win your division first...This is the easiest decision in the world..... |

The rules restrictions on CBs is FAR more important than our division foes. Especially because we pretty much have to beat the Colts (except this past season) anyway.

The main reason is that none of them are a sure thing (beyond the blah blah blah of no pick is a sure thing). They each have some things going for them, but they all have valid questions.
The top-10 is rare air for CB, historically. Most chosen there have become Pro-Bowlers. None of this years CBs can truly be considered shoo-ins for future stardom. Potential is the operative word. DRC, for example. He's essentially Jonathan Wade from last year, but sexier. |

First of all, the Pats only play 6 games against division rivals. They play 10 games against other teams. Teams like the COLTS, Chargers, Bengals, and Jaguars. Not to mention teams like Dallas, Seattle, St. Louis, etc. The Pats don't need that much improvement to stop the running game. Since you missed it, they DID stop the running game extremely well last year. Sorry, but building your team to win your division first is very short-sighted. And The Pats are already built well to stop teams inside the division. The ONLY issue they have against the running game is the LBs. And they need an ILB ad OLB. However, those players aren't going to make an impact immediately. There are guys like Gholston, Goff and Mayo who will probably start making an impact towards the middle or end of the year, but not before hand. Until that time, the Pats will rely on guys like Thomas, Bruschi, and Seau to plug the run. Just like they have previously |

CB easiest to replace? Well check out the cost of Samuel and Gay on the open market.
We do NOT develop our team to win the division. We develop the team to beat potential playoff teams. Quote:

We don't play divisional foes in the Superbowl do we? We could win our division playing Vince and LeKevin at CB, we need top notch corners for the TO's, Burress', Waynes and Harrisons of the world.

The biggest reason we dont take a CB in the first round...
They (the crem de le'creme) are all at best, worth no more than a 15th-20th pick. |

I won't argue with that Oslo, but one of them will get picked before 15 probaly... maybe 2 or 3.
