Saturday draft plan
Posted by Mike Reiss, Globe Staff
April 26, 2008 08:39 AM

The NFL Draft begins at 3 p.m. today, and the Patriots' top decision-makers will be gathered at Gillette Stadium. The team sends two officials to New York to submit the official choices.

Most New England media members covering the draft will be at Gillette Stadium as well. For those looking for a general guideline as to how things will unfold, here is a projection:

3 p.m. -- Draft begins
3:50 p.m. -- Approximate time of the No. 7 pick (owned by Patriots)
9:30 p.m. -- Approximate time of the No. 62 pick (owned by Patriots) At some point along the way, Patriots coach Bill Belichick will address the media in a press conference.

The plan will be to pass along updates along the way.

Do we have a 1, a 2 and two 3'S? Or is it different?

OK. Can we stop on the third round starts tomorrow? I am aware of that...thanks for enlightening me.

Seriously, how many pick do we have in the first three rounds...or, as many of you seem to be so funny, maybe you don't know?

Yes, they have the 7th overall selecting in the first round, 62nd overall in the second round, 69th overall in the 3rd round, 94th overall in the third round, one late pick in each of the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th rounds. So, that's 8 picks total.

can't start a thread....still too much of a rookie....didn't see if posted anywhere - if so, my bad:

ESPN's Michael Smith reports the Rams will take Chris Long at #2. Discuss amongst yourselves.

cblesz · 04-26-2008, 11:45 AM

Thanks. I wasn't sure if we had 2 2's or 2 threes. thanks

Rivers would be my pick at 7.
