Default Pats should get UDFA Robertson from GTech

He's good. DraftHuddle said he was almost 1st round material.

Jason Taylor like guy, very strong against the run too.

And maybe Wesley Woodyard for a SS trainee.

Yeah, almost first round material - just missed it by 6 rounds. Want more evidence to ignore draft sites/magazines?

I would bet he has injury concerns and/or character concerns.

He must have huge injury concerns or huge character problems, or might not be that good.

You're dreaming like I am that the Patriots will sign some

highly ranked players who were not drafted.

ROFL a 1st round player who is a UDFA... can we say gullible?

You know what... I also missed being a 1st round pick by 7 rounds... I must have turned in my name too late for submission, just like that guy!! :P

Once again, you reveal yourself to be a douche. A blow hard - know it all who knows nothing.

Tell us again how BB wouldn't make a trade if it didn't conform to some guy's "chart". Because he wouldn't want to look like a panic seller. And like he wasn't getting "fair value", whatever that is. Remember that? Your post was full of snide insults. I remember PatChick schooled you on your illogic and you went away tail between your legs, never to come back. Clown.

That's what one INDEPENDENT scout who publishes his own ratings said. I didn't say he's first round, I've only seen him play once. Some guys drop, but it's rare to have a guy UDFA unless it's injuries. Other sites have him as more 3rd/4th rounder.

Well, I guess I'm gullible too. Robertson was my sleeper pick at the DE/OLB position. He was among Avril and Crable as my favorite options after round one.

NFLDraftscout had him projected as a 2-3 round pick. Kiper, at one time had him in his top 25.

No doubt his injury played a role in him not being drafted, as he was unable to work out at the Combine and Pro Day, nor did he have any private workouts. But still, there's enough film on him to think he'd be drafted (considering his projection). So it remains a mystery as to why he wasn't.

I've certainly been wrong about many prospects before, but as a sleeper pick...let's just say I'm extra curious as to what the real scoop may be ().

BTW -- the Cowboys just signed him.

Actually the Pats DID get FAIR value by trading from #7 to #10 for a 3rd round pick. Check the official draft VALUE chart. Thanks.

http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/fea...aluechart.html

I also correctly predicted, before the 2nd day, that the Pats had no use for THREE 3rd round draft picks and would likely trade one of them for a future 2nd rounder. This is exactly what happened with their first pick of day 2. Again the Pats got VALUE for their picks. Here's a napkin to wipe the pie off your face.

LOL, let me get this straight. You're taking credit for someone else's argument about draft value to make yourself sound smart... And that argument actually disproved nothing that I said before, since it turns out that all my value predictions were correct. IE BB will not give up 50 cents value on the dollar just to trade down. Nice one! Thanks and come again!

LOL. Nice backpedaling. From a surefire 1st rounder, to a 3rd/4th round pick, to UDFA. Nice. I could say more, but you've already done enough damage with your own admissions. Have a nice day!

Toot....Toot....Toot.

hear that....that is the sound of you tooting your own horn. Wow that is a bold perdiction you made there.

Before the draft I predicted the pats would make a draft day trade, and I was right I must be the smartest person in the world right?
