OT: SEA gets Whitehurst, Chargers have 6th pick in 2nd
 
Another 3-4 team picking ahead of the pats in round 2.
Seahwaks switched places in the 2nd and traded a 3rd for whitehurst

They drafted Larry English around pick 15 last year. No way will they take another OLB within the first 2 rounds. Dont sweat them. Between losing Cromartie and Tomlinson, and their Oline needing help, they wont be affecting how we draft one bit.

Agreed.

They obviously think Merriman is good to go this year judging by the tender value they placed on him.

...was traded for the same value as Matt Cassel (+ Vrabel) were.

The Patriots got the Kansas 2nd round pick straight up.

This deal is simply a swap of 2nd round picks.

BB could of got a #1 for matt if he waited a lil longer denver the bears. or some other team would have came up with a low #1 for matt and they would not have traded vrabel,

San Deigo is an one gap penetrating 3-4. The Pats run a two gap, read and react 3-4. Their style of defense is almost as different from the Pats as many of the 4-3 teams in the league. Besides, the Chargers have different priorities than the Pats on defense like a NT.

Not all 3-4 teams are the same. Just because a team is a 3-4 team doesn't mean they are targetting the same type of players as the Pats.

First, all indications was that Vrabel was gone whether Cassel got traded. The Pats had already discussed trading Vrabel before the Cassel trade. The Pats were due to pay Vrabel a roster bonus and they weren't going to pay it.

Second, there is no guarantees that the Pats would have gotten a first for Cassel even in hindsight. Even with what Denver got for Cutler, there is no guarantees they would have sent a first rounder to the Pats for Cassel.

I am confused as hell!

The Seahawks:
Traded their 3rd
Swapped 2nds

for some random backup qb? Is this their guy of future?

This can't be right.
