My first reaction is probably DE/OLB C. Long from Virginia.
How about you all?
I think it's at least 50-50 that J. Long is there for us. C. Long a little less but he's more player than workout guy/athlete so I could see others moving ahead of him after the combine.It would be a major shocker if either Long makes it to us.

Not sure who I'd like. If one of the CB grades out as top ten value I'd probably go there.
If one of the Longs fell (especially Chris Long), could you see the Pats trading up to #5 to screw the JEST?

Then you start off with somebody we have NO CHANCE of getting. C. Long is listed as a Top 3 player...we are drafting 7th. The 7th selection is not looking like a ideal Trade spot in this Draft which is really nothing special at the Top. I don't know about paying Top dollar for #7 player over a marquee FA. Those two games San Francisco won late really put a damper on our trade hopes. If we were sitting at #3 now we'll be talking at #7 we NEED alot of things to happen.
I realize Long is highly rated, but to say he could not fall to #7 is unrealistic at this point. I am not even sure if he did fall to 7, he would be the patriots pick, that is a lot of money to spend on a guy who would be making a position change. Honestly, I do not see one player I like at #7 at this point. the 2 DT's (Ellis and LSU guy) are probably the most talented, but they would be sitting and you do not pay #7 to sit on the bench. It is frustrating, I am hoping one of the CB's or LB's step up.
