On the contrary, I think this has been a solid draft so far.

We've picked a solid OT, a solid DB who is hard-hitting and a run-stopper, and an all around RB that has that first step explosion, can block and catch out of the backfield. We alternate him with BJGE. BJGE is a hard-nosed pounder who will wear them down and big V will clean up.

That's the exact word I was thinking after the Vereen pick. This is not a sexy draft, but they've drafted some good football players.

2011 NFL Combine: Shane Vereen Runs 4.5 40 Yard Dash, Benches 225 Pounds 31 Times - SB Nation Bay Area
Report: Patriots To Sign Former Jets Running Back Danny Woodhead - Pats Pulpit

I don't know where those Woodhead numbers come from, but I'd challenge the one saying 5' 9".

WOW!!! That is um... interesting. Mallet is a pat!!

Patriot Missile · Apr 29, 2011

Ryan Mallet. I'm fine with it.

VJCPatriot · Apr 29, 2011

Saints take Martez Wilson. Cool, let them deal with his stiffness. The Pats now have back to back picks. Will they take someone or trade down again?

TriplecHamp · Apr 29, 2011

called the mallet pick pages back and again on this page!

I am a wizard

Ryan effing Mallet? F*ck me.

I'm actually sort of hoping for Mark Herzlich at this point - just for the story.

So now we got the 2 slowest QB's Ever

Froob · Apr 29, 2011

This board is going to go nutz(including me) if neither of these picks is front 7.

mtbykr · Apr 29, 2011

jefmblrd · Apr 29, 2011

And the Pats helped themselves get off the field on 3rd down how?

This. Draft. Sucks. For. Pats. Backers.

Bueno? Bueno!

Sadly, few will get it Jay.

I have to stop, Mallet, actually I like this pick, he has alot of talent, coach him up, he has more talent than any other qb in this draft.

Off The Grid · Apr 29, 2011

Please God NO.

midwestpatsfan · Apr 29, 2011

We've picked ...a solid DB who is hard-hitting and a run-stopper .

I never had Ras-I on my short list so I am totally in the dark on his skills. Is he a good run support tackler? Mel Kiper (FWIW) questioned his physicallity given his size. I'm more willing to trust the opinions on this board over Mel's.

Mallett and Hoyer
One will be traded after the season
