We all exagerrate to make our points. We are operating in hindsight, so you all have such little faith in Light, Vollmer, Kaczur and LeVoir that you would give up alot to have Clady and Oher instead. Is it too rash a conclusion to think that you MUST think our OT's are aweful if you would have given up the following get them and then not drafted Vollmer.
====================
Mayo
Butler
2nd round draft choice
Tate
Edelman
(Vollmer) the pick used for him would have been needed elsewhere
Instead we would have Clady, Oher and whoever we picked for the Vollmer draft pick.
===============================================================
I still think that you all must think our tackles are pretty aweful if you would have given up this much.
=======================================================
OHER or VOLLMER and 2 2010 seconds
Finally, you think that with all the draft choices, Belichick would have gotten the same players anyway. I don't think that is possible. HOWEVER, I do agree that Belichick could have come close by trying to trade the 3rd's traded forward and the pick used for Vollmer for #40 and the pick used for Butler. So, I do agree that we could have had Oher and Butler.

Could you link us to all these many posts saying that the OT's are awful and the team should have drafted Clady and Oher because of that?
Also, could you explain to us all how impossible it would have been to find a team to trade the Patriots a 6th or 7th round pick which could have been used to draft Edelman?
Also, given that the team was able to grab multiple draft picks in next year's draft, would you explain how it would have been impossible for the team to have moved picks around to get most, if not all, of the players they drafted?
As for LeVoir...... please.
