And the contest winners are...

[patchick]

After day one, the PatsFans draft contest was looking like a gimme! Mayo and Wheatley were popular picks, and BB/SP were following our sage advice. The top score was a perfect 2-for-2.

And 5 rounds later, the top score was...still 2. Now that's the Patriots drafting we've all come to expect!

A round of applause for our two winners:

Mac, who tabbed Mayo & Wheatley
Metaphors, with Mayo & O'Connell

:eat3:

Y'all come back next year for another dose of group humility!

Sounds like a banner year. We may never see such high scores again, let alone from two people.

thumbs up.

Funny stuff............One day someone will break a record and tab 3 players,just not when Pioli and BB are running the show.

Almost happened this year. I had Crable originally but thought it was too obvious and changed to Jeremy Thompson at the last minute.

Bump......

Do I get a point for Dragosavich? or am I still 0-for the BB era?

Sorry, UDFAs are just tie-breakers! (But wait a second, if it would mean I could claim Gutierrez from last year...)

Thanks. I really thought I was all over the Pats draft this year but just missed. Scandrick vs. Wheatley. Thompson vs. Crable. Wrong Auburn CB. Can't believe Belichick didn't draft a TE (Cottam) or a developmental OL candidate (Eric Scott...who I think just signed with someone else. Damn!).

Needless to say I'm pleased at how Belichick seemed to follow a gameplan for a more aggressive defensive attack. You don't pick up undersized, blazing fast CBs to sit back in a cover-2 or cover-3. If the Pats do start featuring more attacking play calls on D, I really like Capers coaching up the secondary. Add in Mayo's speed in the middle and Crable attacking from the outside...I'm ready for the season to start now.
