Just watched this video and all I can say is blah! Almost no lateral movement, gave up a monster TD where he let the Gaurd undress him by the chest plate of his pads, no pass rush what so ever and when he shot gaps he guessed wrong. Plus the one double team I saw him "absorb" he got blown 6 yards off the ball. Ick ick ick! Guess I have spent too long watching Vince cuz this guy has nothing that made him special.

Like that bust Brady who couldn't even win the starting job in college.

He was a sophomore trying to beat out upper classman, he eventually got the job full time, led numerous comebacks

Also brady wasnt competing with scrubs

What if Pot Roast sacks Brisket in training camp ? I don't know, I got nuthin. I'm too tired and punch drunk from these picks.

Listen, I remember tons of posters flipping **** over the Garoppolo pick in round 2 a couple years back.

Well, they were idiots. Garoppolo was a legit round-two pick and this team needed a No. 2 quarterback/heir apparent to Brady. This Brissett is much harder to fathom picked that high in this year.

Lyoko lifted my spirits a bit by saying that they'll make picks tomorrow where we say "if we swap valentine in the third for Xbox in the 6th, the draft doesn't look so bad." This is true as it happens every year.

You're in luck - fullback Chris Swain of Navy has been linked to the Pats based on pre-draft contact.

Someone did take Cody Kessler a couple picks later.

He's got a hot girlfriend.

That alone would've made this draft a lot less disappointing if they picked him instead.

Only pick I have a problem with is Brissett.

DT, OL and CB were needs.

I can't hate picks before they even play a snap because they aren't my binkies if I think that position was a need.

Get a RB with that 4th tomorrow and they'll have selected my top 4 positional wants I had coming in to this draft.

We needed a CB, OL and DT. We got all 3.
We needed also needed a developmental QB. Belichick signed signed one. Everyone here thinks that you do this by drafting a starter in the 6th round. Belichick thinks that quality future starting quarterbacks are harder to find.

We pick in the 4th. There are lots of RB's available. One will be picked there if Belichick agrees that this is a top priority and that the players available are likely to make the team.

We are drafting an Xbox?

There's a pattern of drafting a new heir or backup every couple years. Bill obviously finds it necessary, and maybe the looming suspension to the GOAT just pushed the issue.

Whether Brisset was the best QB is up for debate, but I like him more than most of the guys still available....and some already takenot.

I'm not sold on Brisset. But I'm not opposed to drafting a QB as opposed to signing some bum off FA and praying that Grop doesn't get injured in preseason or something.

A questionable day for us but I was totally cool with our first two picks.

This will sound awful but I will enjoy the draft alot more when BB retires.

Now picking Core the German and Marhall or Dixon will make me feel much better.

Every year I get so excited and every year I seem to forget I get bummed after.

Of course Bill drafted XBOX when we all thought he would go PS4.....

If we don't pick PS4 in the 6th I'm done with this team.
