Felger is simply playing his contrarian role here. "Most" of the national media, and plenty of local media, have given the Pats Cs or indifferent grades. Felger sees this, and he must laud the draft - or at least not pan it.
Hate to admit it, but I've been listening to this azzclown since way back to when he was on 1510 and 890 and his "big" in studio guest was punter Josh Miller.
Felger has always played the contrarian role - you see it with his Celtics coverage, Red Sox coverage, and ESPECIALLY his Patriots coverage. But his favorite folks to agitate are Pats fans. I remember one of his big things was "Rod Smith KILLS the Patriots. They cannot cover Rod Smith!"
Oh and folks, before he became a big NYJ rump swab when they had Rex Ryan and were competitive with the Pats, he was calling on Miami to beat the Pats in the division before his love affair with Revis and Ryan.
His show is about stirring "controversy", just yesterday he was playing up wrestling fanboy Jimmy Stewart's distaste for John Farrell. They were both saying to fire Farrell, even though the Sox are 15-10, in first, coming of a sweep of the NYY, and generally playing good baseball....that's Boston sports radio for ya....
