On the bigger picture; of interest to me; is seeing how much the BB UDFA philosophy is retained by his former lieutenants and the Pats org
1. BB always seemed to have a hard list of UDFAs ready: guys who were almost immediately ready to commit post-draft.
2. throughout pre-camp, training...

Just from the highlights iirc I only saw 1 end around, 1 wr screen, 1 over mid-depth middle; 0 slants; and ALL the rest 20-30 catches were deep periphery catches.
When people throw around term #1 (which I dislike); I generally think it’s that deep periphery skill set they ‚really’ talking...
I like the thought of TE then S.
But BPA is more theoretically better choice at this round.
So far, I think Eliot‘s choices are ok (they are understandable); …. BUT what it feels like he is lacking is a sense of the other 31-team trends and how to navigate the picks to get good value while...
I watched the day2 show. Was ok except for all the love for GotoHell. Was a PREDRAFT only show.
Their next show is Monday postdraft
Mcafee gone to WV to play in a college alumni football game For the weekend
Went: who? W this pick, but…
Really liked end of his press conference when his brother came on
‚Described him as a hard worker who treats football like a craft -art & that he is always learning ‚
Also him saying he played ALL THE OL POSITIONS…..
So would have liked to hear someone ask about...
I originally thought: QB, OT, WR was the route.
But the OL and particularly OT ran quick. I think I saw on one guys mock that 2 DBs left on board are rated 19, 26 overall. The next available OL is 68 on that guys board. So for me pick 34 buys a DB cheap and an OL expensive
So I say now...
Don’t disagree w what you say here.
Just disagree w the timing you implied in your previous post. Those „moving parts“ you talk about can’t be coordinated on a clock. It needs to be pre-orchestrated.
Somehow; I don’t think it works that way.
Any offer they get after Wed 18:00 is as unserious as the „laughable „ offers received so far. Just ones seeking a desperate partner.
IIRC, in the few videos of BB trading down; it was always the same:
(1). BB asks the other team: „is the player...
Ok so this story:
Special teams legend Matthew Slater's new full-time role with Patriots revealed
I LOVE Slater. Excited he is still on /around team; but I have absolutely no clue what this position is?

I know very little about qb analysis.
But the one thing I think I know is that for the last 25-26 years a vocal minority (at times majority) has been chasing the „great white whale“. That is, the super mobile QB:

(the history is full of busts: Michael bishop, Malik Cunningham; and...
The more the merrier. It ain’t 53 right now it’s 90. if he even just has a 50% chance to come back in form and be a top 5 or top 8 OL option; then it is well worth it to keep him thru TC.
Ok, what is the vet min for a 3-4 year player?. You are likely talking a few hundred K difference.
So...
