"With the 32'd Pick of the First Round, the New England Patriots select..."


:) I guess the board has discovered Harold.

He won't be there when we pick, being picked between 20 and 25 seems about right.
 
I suspect that everyone's binky, Byron Jones, will be gone by 32 (remember that CBs are undervalued in draft guides) and the Patriots trade back and pick up someone like CB PJ Williams or CB Charles Gaines. Or so I would think, but the Patriots have bee less inclined to trade back since the rookie salary slots. Then they pick another CB or two later in the draft....that's my prediction and I am sticking to it....and I am sure I am wrong--the Patriots are almost impossible to predict. The Patriots biggest need is CB, but they have traditionally undervalued CB (i.e. letting Revis, Assante, and Gay go) so who knows.
 
I predict the New England Patriots will either trade up or trade down from the 2015 32nd overall draft pick.
 
So what are the chances that BB grabs Dorial Green-Beckham at #32 in a gamble on greatness?

I'd wager comfortably south of 1%. NE is not going to draft a WR in the first round and certainly not one that isn't a complete layup maturity-wise.
 
Marcus Peters, Landon Collins, Cameron Erving, and La'el Collins are all there at 32, who do you take?
 
It would have been Collins, but now it's Erving with Peters a fairly distant second.

Id still take Collins at 64 if he were there. Losing a 2nd round pick would suck if he were actually found to have part in it. I highly doubt that is the case though.
With that being said, id easily pass on him in hopes of him lasting till the later rounds.

Peters is my Favorite of the 3 on a value/need basis.

Landon is probably the most secure bet seeing how well Bama players have done with us in the past.
Having two great/ possible elite safeties tied up for the next 5 years would also be a nice feeling. I also like the fact that he is versatile and could be played as a FS if something were to happen to Dmac.

Quite Frankly, if anyone of them are there at 32, id be happy with the pick
 
The pick for me would've been Erving, with Peters a very close 2nd had he also been available,
that's how bad our need is at CB.
