29
simple, just list all the guys you are happy taking at #29 if we don't move down....
 
WR - Hunter, Hopkins, Patterson
DT - S. Williams
CB - Trufant, Rhodes
 
Here's my list in no particular order:

1. Kenny Vaccaro
2. Star Loutulelei
3. Sharrif Floyd
4. Sheldon Richardson
5. Xavier Rhodes
6. Bjoern Werner
7. Cornelius Carradine

I realize quite a few of these would have to "drop" to be available at #29 but if any of those 7 guys are there, I would be ecstatic if the PATS got them. The way I see it, the two Florida State DE's and Rhodes will be the most likely players we have a shot at. If none of the above mentioned guys are there, I would prefer a trade down.
 
SS - Eric Reid (my highest preference), Ken Vaccaro
WR - Robert Woods, Keenan Allen
CB - Xavier Rhodes, Desmond Trufant, Jamar Taylor
RB - Eddie Lacy (man am I gonna take flak for that, but if he's clearly BPA...)
 
WR: Robert Woods, Keenan Allen, DeAndre Hopkins??, Markus Wheaton

OL: Jon Cooper, Justin Pugh

DE: Bjoern Werner, Cornelius Carradine

DT: Jesse Williams

LB: Alec Ogletree,

CB: Xavier Rhodes, Desmond Trufant, DJ Hayden, Jamar Taylor


And with that many prospects being ones I'd be happy to take, trading down seems like the obvious route.
 
Robert Woods, DeAndre Hopkins
Tank Carradine
Sheldon Richardson
Xavier Rhodes, DJ Hayden, Desmond Trufant
Matt Elam, Eric Reid, Jonathan Cyprien
 
WR: Woods, Hunter, Hopkins, Rogers.
DE: Werner, Carradine (I think he's overrated, but still)
S: Elam, Vaccarro, Reid
LB: Ogletree

I would list CB's, but that's not a first round need IMO. That said, Belichick will probably pick one just to make me drive my head through a wall.
 
WR Woods, Allen, Hunter (risky), Hopkins, Wheaton (last is a reach, but he might not be available at 59.)
DE Werner, Carradine, Jones
LB Brown
CB Taylor, Hayden, Rhodes, Trufant
DT S. or J. Williams, Richardson
OL Cooper (LOL I know zero chance)

Werner

I think that's about it for realistics
 
Rhodes. Didn't think this was possible until recently. I imagine he could be better than Samuel someday except he can also play zone and tackle.

Trufant. Just solid all around. Is polar opposite on offense is Wheaton{not 29 for Markus though} although I wouldn't complain.

Woods---- 12 catches for 224 yards and three touchdowns against Sherman is sealing the deal for me late.

Keenan Allen. Provided the medical has been examined 1,000,000 times. I'd still have a ill feeling. Great talent though.

Cooper. Think he is going top 10 though.

Ogletree. Coverage LB who fills a need.

M Hunt. Possible stud. We know he'll put the work in. Left him off until Manx article reminded me.

Werner. Obvious.

Carradine. I'd be ok with. err. maybe not. possible failed physical?

S Williams. In BB we trust

K Short. In BB we trust
 
Best Player Available. I envision that being a DT, OL or CB.
 
Carradine maybe and Keenan Allen, I guess Woods if he checks out medically (which by definition he would have if they picked him I guess).

A safety or an OL big negative from me.


Not sure if Carradine could play 3-4 OLB.

Back when the team still had an NFL caliber receiving corps, I would have like Matt Elam in the late first. But since then, they've let Welker ride out, cut Lloyd, and signed Amendola and IR Gang. Receiver has to be the first pick, IMO.
 
Not necessarily most happy but most likely:

Bjoern Werner, DE - Florida State
Cornellius Carradine, DE - Florida State
Xavier Rhodes, CB - Florida State
Desmond Trufant, CB - Washington
Jamar Taylor, CB - Boise State
 
carradine
hopkins
allen
taylor
banks
short
rhodes

FSU baby!

10 char
 
I'm just going to post realistic options:

DE: Werner, Carradine
CB: Taylor, Hayden
DT: Williams, Richardson
LB: Ogletree, Brown

I basically want to trade down though.

I don't like any of the receivers enough to pick them at 29. I like Wheaton, Hopkins, Rogers, Dobson as 2-3 round players, but particularly Wheaton and Rogers.
 
Tyler Eifert, Jesse Williams, Desmond Trufant, Kenny Vaccaro, Xavier Rhodes
 
Jesse Williams
Datone Jones
Xavier Rhodes
Jamar Taylor
