I've seen Merriweather appearing on an awful lot of mock drafts as a Patriots pick... but given his on and off field behavior problems, I'm really having a difficult time envisioning him on this team.
This has probably been discussed adnasueum in this forum but just wondering where everyone comes down on Merriweather's ability to turn things around and behave the way this team would demand.
No one seems to doubt his football talent - its just his behavior that makes me question why so many mock drafts have him going with the Patriots. Don't they follow this team and know how the owner and coach feel about problem players?
Safety is obivously a huge issue with us - right up there with ILB - but I'm more inclined to go with my wildass gut prediction that the Patriots will trade for the Redskin's #6 pick and grab LaRon Landry to give us a dominant Safety for years to come.
(Yes I know very few are predicting a trade up, but I think BB has a pretty good record drafting at #6 - and someone of Big Sey's caliber strikes me as being worth two late 1st round picks plus whatever other draft pick that trade up would demand.)
