Re: Offical 2007 NFL Draft 2nd Round Discussion

We had a chance to draft Harris and we passed. We'll see soon enough whether that was a good move.

Re: Offical 2007 NFL Draft 2nd Round Discussion

What? Sometimes the people on this board make me ill. Year after year the Pats own the draft, are often one of the most active teams in trades, and pick up at least 2 or 3 quality players, and people still complain. Unreal.

I'm with ya, I'm psyched we got another defensive player to add speed and all the rest is extra. People need to have faith in BB and quit the whining.

As it stands now, Eric Alexander. Comforting isn't it?

Seau, or AD will move inside. We have Pierre Woods and I'm sure they will draft someone in the third round, much less a developmental project.

Re: Offical 2007 NFL Draft 2nd Round Discussion

Hes gonna a lot imo..he'll play strongside and let Vilma play weakside.

Jets traded the rest of their draft for it.

Re: Official 2007 NFL Draft 3rd Round Discussion

We get Oakland's 7th rounder this year and 3rd rounder next year... Kind of a ho hum lateral move. The 7th is not even enough to move up in the 4th round!

Brandon Siler.

Dear God I hope not...I have read numerous stories about how he has WAY to high an opinion of himself. Plus to be honest he looks like about the stiffist LB I have seen in years.

Re: Offical 2007 NFL Draft 2nd Round Discussion

i hate to say this, but the jets have had a good draft. they overpaid a bit for revis but harris is a good dam value in the 2nd round

Re: Official 2007 NFL Draft 3rd Round Discussion

A 3rd rounder next year, and a 7th rounder this year. Great draft so far, NOT. well, at least we have cornered the market in 2nd day draft picks, especially in the 6th and 7th rounds, lol. We are the kings of draft mediocracy !!.

He's not that stiff, and Ted Johnson was a pretty stiff guy, and he worked out okay. He's just a 2 down plugger, which is something this team needs. I wouldn't cry if we got him in the 4th.

I agree...actually I think they had a better draft last year as well. The Jackson bust (yes that's right) is heavily influencing that but still...It's early though so we'll see how things pan out. I am starting to lament the Welker trade though.

Re: Official 2007 NFL Draft 3rd Round Discussion

Some cruddy draft picks..........

Certainly not a blockbuster deal, but since next year's draft should be better, it looks like an upgrade. It may also be grease for the gears in the Moss deal...

While I don't like Revis, Harris is perfect for them. Vilma can focus on being a playmaker at the WILB position and let Harris plug the holes and clean up the run. Good move for the Jets, I was hoping the Pats would be able to trade back up and land Harris, but them's the breaks.

According to NFL.com draft tracker they have two 6th rounders left and that's it. Picks # 177 and #191.

Trading half of your draft for Revis and Harris seems a bit reckless.

According to espn.com, they have a sixth as well, number 177 overall.
