What are the Pats going to do with all those picks. They still have 11 picks left.

Trade them to maneuver around in later rounds?

Just a hunch.

I know and they keep going to bloody commercials on our picks, then give them fug all coverage.

Very happy with the Cunningham pick, very consistant player.

Good morning down under.

Gosh these guys are enamored with QB's. All yesterday the talk was of Tebow Tebow Tebow until he went. Today it was Clausen Clausen Clausen until he went. Now it's McCoy McCoy McCoy.

Marqui · Apr 23, 2010

I'm really liking BBs strategy. This next pick needs to be a homerun though.

We are a joke. 8-8 this year.

Why? Because the Pats traded down four positions late in the second round?

question, isnt there a max number of picks a team can have in one draft?

Don't think so, but there aren't enough spots on a good team for less than stellar players that are drafted LATE.
You can get 70,000 picks, but who cares if they are bums that can't even breach the roster?

YouTube - Lott Shots top-5 hits from Week 9

good hit by cunningham at the end of the video

Cunningham looked fine in that ESPN film. Very agile 266.

Nah, he has the group he wants. I think they're done for the day, as far as taking players. More trades to come.

SanAngeloState · Apr 23, 2010

I think part of the reason they trade down is to give themselves extra time to think. Could be risky though.

Cunningham would have been available much later. "How do you know!".

A couple towards mid-rounds next year.

JFK · Apr 23, 2010

maybe BB thinks the draft is a crap shoot and having more picks is better than having few top picks....
Is there a stat to see if this is true?

ohh, well then i suppose the draft is a crapshoot anyways...might as well see who gets it in camp and who doesnt

Who cares? He's obviously not that good if tons of teams passed on him multiple times.

No Hardesty...

Box_O_Rocks · Apr 23, 2010

Cleveland jumping ahead of NE with that move.

Another hunch: they start trading up into 4th or 5th.

EXACTLY most of these late rnd picks are cannon fodder
