Peppers or the #3 (and hopefully Curry)
 
This is a simple poll. The speculation is that we might get the #3 pick of the draft as part of a deal with KC. What would you do with the pick?

Trade for two lower 1sts or Get Peppers, in that order of preference.

Trade it for someone's 15ish and next year's first.

I will take Peppers over a hopefully Curry

But if we knew (obviously no way to) Maybe I would rather take my chances on Curry just because the thought of Mayo and Curry for the next 4+ years is awsome.

I cannot fathom how people here are so in love with Peppers. He's an underachiever with a track record of disappearing in big games. The last option would be the best, nab the #3 then trade down for additional picks. Failing that, spending the #3 on Curry wouldn't be the worst thing the Patriots could do.

Ditto.

If I knew for a fact Curry would be there at #3, I'd say #3. But thats not something the Pats can know until draft day.

If the Patriots are planning to make a run for the SB in 2009, then they'll want draft picks in 2010 (since they will be limited in their ability to sign UFAs--either by a salary cap, or by the poison pills if there isn't one).

At #3, any two of LB Aaron Curry, LT Jason Smith, LT Eugene Monroe, or WR Michael Crabtree would be available. Or you could trade back a bit if someone really wanted a player and target NT B.J. Raji, S Malcom Jenkins, or OLB Connor Barwin. Myself, I'd rather have the pick to work with.

If we waited until draft day, we would have conditional trade partners if Curry were picked at #1 or #2. The consolation prize would be two firsts, perhaps the #10 and a 2010 first.

My preference is Peppers, but keeping the 3rd until Draft Day is intriguing.
