Ok, this is it. Our last chance to make fools of ourselves before BB goes in an entirely opposite direction.

Patriots picks as of now are 27,31, 48, 62,93, & 126.

THE HUDDLE REPORT - NFL DRAFT
The Huddle Report - NFL Draft Research and Analysis

You can use the rankings below of the draft value chart:

ProFootballWeekly.com - Draft Rankings
ProFootballWeekly.com - PFW's exclusive draft value board
NFL Draft - 2012 NFL Draft Prospects - CBSSports.com - NFLDraftScout.com
NFL - Draft - Yahoo! Sports

For the 1st round you can go up 3 spots or use the 1C or 1B on the value chart or any ranked below. For the 2nd, 3rd, 4th rounds, you can go up 5 spots or any ranked below the pick.

If you do trades, make sure they make sense using the trade value chart.

No mocking others mock until you have posted your mock to be mocked.

Have fun and happy drafting.

First using the PFW rankings:

#27 Gilmore CB/FS SC
#31 Jones DE/OLB Cuse
#48 Hill WR GT
#63 Jones C/G Ga
#92 Tamamu DT Wash
#126 Kelement OG/OT Wash

Like the 1st 4 - not crazy about the last 2.

Using the Draft Value chart, if both Barron and Hightower are on the board from 15-25, I say we use our capital to trade up and get both. 2 play makers on D is really all I want and the rest of the draft can be used as fill in's.

Mix

Using CBS rankings

27: Janoris Jenkins CB North Alabama
31: Shea McClellin OLB/DE Boise St
48: Harrison Smith S Notre Dame
63: Mychal Kendricks ILB Cal
92: Greg Childs WR Arkansas
126: Derek Wolfe DE/DT Cincinnati

I play online poker, and there have been hands when I know I'm beat - I'll have two pair and the other guy three bets me, and I just know he has a set - but I call anyway.

That's where I'm at with our first choice. I am nearly 100% certain this will not be the pick, but I'm mocking it just the same.

27 S. McClellen OLB - Everyone else they have targetted is off the boards. I foresee a huge run on edge rushers and defensive ends.

Last year the Pat's passed on Cam Jordan and M. Wilkerson, so I can't see them this year taking someone like R. Keyes with their first pick, while Still and Worthy are not currently schematic fits. McClellen can play three downs and probably special teams. Will need to work on strength and setting the edge. Concussion history may be an issue.

According to the PFW chart this is a major reach. However after reading reviews about the Patriots draft last year, every one of their picks was considered a reach. BB has proven he doesn't care about that. There is no other player that offers the versatility that McClellen does that he can get later.

31 Lavonte David- ILB Suprise pick. From all indications the Patriots are in the market for a cover LB who has potential to rush the passer. M. Kenricks is also a possiblity. David gets the nod as it appears he has better instincts and also will do a better job in pass coverage. 31 is probably going to be a difficult pick to trade.

48 K. Reyes, DE/DT . Defensive line depth, possible updgrade over Deadrick or Love. BPA for our scheme at this point in the draft.

62 Brandon Boykin CB Develomental corner, can play in the nickle package, offers return value.

93: Brandon Taylor, S Has the tools and ability to develop as a solid safety. Over aggressiveness and bad angles among other flaws can be coached up.

126 Greg Childs, WR. We have 10 receivers currently, but they are all 30 are older. Childs is coming off injury or he may have gone in Rd 2.

27. Janoris Jenkins
31. Shea McClellin
48. Trumain Johnson
62. Bruce Irvin
93. Marvin Jones
126 Jarius Wright

There is a really good chance Gilmore is going in the top 10 (Jaguars.) Hill will be long gone by 48, some team is going to fall in love with his speed.

Blackluck

Both of these are really good mocks - but I have trouble seeing the Patriots taking Jenkins with their first pick, and I believe the Globe has stated we aren't interested in him.

Patriot Missile

Really? Did you just mention the Globe and the Patriots in the same sentence? They have about as much credibility as you or I. You may be right that they have no interest whatsoever with his troublesome past, but for all we know as armchair gm's he may be tops on their board and laying low on the guy. the same could be said for a lot of players in this draft.
