If anyone prediced a DB in RD1 Please Stand Up

[skinnydog]

Is there anyone out there who predicted a DB at the top of the draft? Really? I'd love to congratulate you on that prediction. Anyone predict McCourty in Rd 1 or 2?

I think the pick is terrible (in the sense that there were much, much better options on the board) and would love the be wrong, but also want to know if any of the defenders predicted something like this.

Yes sir :

Wilson works for me although when I update "My 4" I will have McCourty in that spot. He's more likely to be there than Wilson and is also a top ST player which never hurts.

I had Kareem Jackson in my "Dream Draft" but he went before us.

Awesome prediction. I tip my hat.

Box o Rocks said it was a strong possibility
and I had McCourty with 44.

For me it was based on switching to the 4 man front. (I had Dez Bryant at 22, sadly passed over)

I had Wilson at #22 if Graham was gone. McCourty and Jackson I thought we could get later by trading down if Wilson was gone, too. CB with a high pick made sense to me since the talent dropoff was steep after the first 4-5 guys, sort of a now-or never deal.

Didn't think it was anything particularly clever, much less brilliant on my part, though.

Again, congrats on those predictions. I still think a Hughes or Odrick would have been better selections, but we'll see if it works out.

I had us having the choice of Odrick, Wilson and McCurty and Belichick making his choice.

From the seat position, I predicted Odrick or trade.

This guy had him in round 2 but he also picked Cunningham

The best Pats mock I have seen so far with two picks right so far...may get another tomorrow

Here is my exact statement : post #14

"If Belichick likes the pick, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see McCourtey, Wilson, or Kareem Jackson."

Props again to mgteich for starting the thread, and also to BelichickFan, MaineMan, and captain stone who agreed and were on board.
