Watch the Patriots draft war room: what would it be worth?

everlong · Feb 25, 2012

If the Patriots set up a room where you could see and hear everything going on but they couldn't hear the audience how much would you pay for that ticket?

Day one (round1)?

Day two (rounds 2+3)?

Day three (rounds 4-7)?

How cool would that be to see how their board stacked and how they debated moves and players and made trades?

Not saying this is realistic or would ever happen.

Priceless. I have often debated ( hey- it's my fantasy!) sending BB a letter asking to sit in the room, with a lifetime guarantee that I would never speak of what happened in the room. Would be epic.

It's entirely possible that something could happen in that war room that you just wouldn't be able to keep to yourself. It would eat at you until you end up going insane. Or you would have to tell someone about it, and then BB will have to send someone to silence you.

Wouldn't be worth much. I'd probably break a chair over his head when he wasn't looking after he passed up my guys the first 3 rounds.

I had a sixteen year old cousin who had cancer (now in remission) and he was chosen for the make a wish program. We were sitting in the hospital and he was trying to think of what he wanted to do and he asked me if I was in his situation what I would ask for and I said that I would first ask if I could spend the 3 months from when the super bowl ended to when the draft came around and shadow BB. I then told him as a more realistic wish I would want to sit in the war room for the draft with the Patriots.

He chose to fly out to California and meet Kobe Bryant instead. Teenagers, what can you do.

I'd pay to sit in other teams war rooms and message the info over to BB's MyFace account.

There's no way that I'd be able to sit in a room where I could see/hear Bill, but he couldn't see/hear me.
It would drive me insane being that close to the action but not being able to do anything when Bill screws up a pick, which we all know is going to happen at least once during the first 3 rounds.

I don't think it would work that well. I feel like most people here would either sit with their fist in their mouth all day or scream at BB and his staff all day.

In my opinion, there are some things that you just can't put a dollar amount on.

The incomparable Wisdom and Insight that Coach Bill would garner from my presence would be priceless.

Priceless. You can't put a price on what goes on in Belichick's mind.

Oh, you can, I gah rohn tee he'd let you follow him around with a sufficient amount of benjamins.

He'll probably give you a discount of you're a fan of Bon Jovi and know how to change the time on the clock in his car.

:ditto:

I would want the rights to write a book two or three years down the road about the experience. It would be called "We need a f*kin Pass Rusher, not another TE and CB!!" or "He f*kin Traded Down Again!"

Imagine if your were there for the first two rounds and he traded all the picks to the 3rd round or later and into future years?

I have to agree with Midwestern. Learning how they evaluate the players, including things that we fans never get to find out about (personal interviews, film room study, etc) would be amazing.

I hope that Mike Holley is allowed to publish a book after BB is done about this. That way we get to see/understand why certain decisions were made..
