Draft Day Challenge 2006

[Flying Fungi]

At the request of Patchick, I am bringing the Draft Day Challenge back!

The object is very simple--identify 10 players that you think will be drafted by the New England Patriots. This can be all LBs, or a spread of individual position players. It can be revised as many times as you need before draft day. Winner gets kudos and bragging rights. Defending champeen is Patchick I do believe.

Git some...

Matthias Kiwanuka
Jeremy Trueblood
Tamba Hali
Abdul Hodge
Joe Klopfenstein
Tui Lutui
Joseph Addai
Connor Hughes
Jeremy Bloom
Chris Gocong

I don't know. We should probably do a 40 who WON'T be drafted.

Here's a stab. I don't see me changing it, cause then I'll really be ticked if I take a guy off who's drafted. I'll try to improve on my total of 1 from last year (Claridge):

Mike Hass
Pat Ross
Manaia Brown
Ryan LaCasse
Tim Dobbins
Cedric Griffen
Brian Iwuh
Orien Harris
Steve Fifita
David Thomas

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

Here's my shot at it:

Antonio Cromartie-CB Florida St.
Bobby Carpenter- LB The Ohio St.
Maurice Stovall-WR Notre Dame
Maurice Drew- RB UCLA
Chris Gocong- DE(think OLB) Cal Poly
Will Blackmon- WR/sometimes DB Boston College
Greg Blue-S Georgia
Pat Ross-C Boston College
Ryan LaCasse-DE Syracuse
Jon Huston-K The Ohio St.

 

[Ochmed Jones]

Wimberely OLB FSU - HAs the siza and speed and he can rush or cover. He has the frame to play at 270 without losing any significant speed. Superb charcter.
Marshall CB FSU - Wanted a playmaker in the Pats secondary.
Whitworth ROT LSU - Nastiness is in great demand and he can supply it.
Avant WR Michigan- Excellent quickness, hands and superb character.
Drew RB UCLA - Punt returner and 3rd down specialist in grooming.
Gocong ILB Cal Poly - lacks burst but his porduction can't be overlooked.
Bouknight WR New Mexico - Excellent quickness and production and he can return kicks.
Parham ILB Virginia - 3-4 experience and insticnts.
Wyche OLB Syracuse - Size, speed and some pass rushing ability
B Johnson SS Louisville- tall ((6'5")l converted OLB with 4.4 speed. Can he bring the hammer??????

 

[big mike]

Bobby Carpenter
Manny Lawson (two primary possibilities I'm expecting for round 1)
Richard Marshall
Joseph Addai (two main possibilities for round 2)
Joe Klopfenstein
David Thomas
Chris GoCong
Ryan LaCasse
Kai Parham
Jerrious Norwood (the last 6 I see as possibilities anywhere from round 3-5).

I'm rooting for
1 Bobby Carpenter (possibly trade down a bit, to get a pick to use to trade up in round 2 to get....)
2 Richard Marshall
3 Jerrious Norwood and Chris GoCong
day 2 Kai Parham, Ryan LaCasse, and David Thomas or Joe Klopfenstein. And throw in an OT, WR, and K.

Actually I think Miguel had two..Hobbs and Mankins..and he was I believe the only one..

As I recall, Miguel was off shooting craps in some ESPN contest, while there were 2 or 3 folks with two names each, and another 10 or so with one name.

Antonio Cromartie, CB Florida State
Richard Marshall, CB Fresno State
Mark Setterstrom, G Minnesota
Clint Ingram, LB Oklahoma
Mike Hass WR Oregon State
Johnny Jolly, DT Texas A&M
Aaron Harris LB/S Texas
Tim Massaquoi, TE Michigan

Jason Avant
Babatunde Oshinowo

[Joe_n99]

What the hell...

Here's my guess.. in no particular order.

LB Hole
Mathias Kiwanuka
Kameron Wimberley

DB Hole
Richard Marshall
Ashton Youboty

OL Depth
Darryn Colledge

WR Hole/Depth
Maurice Stovall
Mike Haas

RB Depth
Abdul Hodge
Maurice Drew

DL Depth
Montavious Stanley

I think if we get any 5 of these 10 they won't let the pats draft next year!
What do I get when I win?
