DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Official Patriots Draft Day 3 Thread - Rounds 4-7

[Wozzy]

Andrews is a great interior OL who can probably play OG or C immediately

Onwenu is a free agent next offseason, Duggar is also… they’re drafting potential replacements.

I think Freeland was probably the pick but they went next best player available.

 

[WaterfallJumper]

Good to know the Andrews position is secured. We definitely needed an understudy there.

Goodbye, Thanksdad? (He's actually been okay, I just think it's one of Captain Stone's better nicknames, haha.)

 

[Ghost of Ben Dreith]

Once again the Pats, I.e. Bill, trying to look like they are the smartest draft room in the league.

 

[patsfanfromoversea]

No chance he wouldn't have been around later.

yeah...reportedly mcvay thought he would be avaibalbe for their 7th rd pick jk

 

[Ivan]

The Andrews pick fills a need. David Andrews is nearing the end of his career, and he’s been battling injuries. This gives them depth at Center. I like the wrestling experience, that worked out well with Stephen Neal.

 

[Patriot Missile]

I hate this.

When do we pick next?

117?

 

[Chevy]

So we’re going from andrews to andrews.

Save on uniform costs

 

[TheRainMaker]

Mac Jones watching the draft…

 

[50-yard-line]

Need a Tackle…here’s a center.

However, David Andrews is a guy that needs to be replaced.

Luke Wypler was sitting there...

If that was the next BPA on the patsboard then trade everyother pick to next year

 

[Ross12]

I hate this.

When do we pick next?

117 (in 7 picks) and then 120.

 

[Horace's Ivories]

NFL.com:
"Andrews might lack length and be viewed as only a center at the next level, but he plays with strong hands, a wide frame and exceptional strength at the point of attack. His inability to trigger his feet quickly and make fluid redirections in space show up in run blocking and pass protection, but his ability to square up and hold his own against a true nose tackle over the top of him is a valuable talent. Players with Andrews’ thickness and drive-blocking talent tend to find their way onto rosters and often end up sticking around."

BB is punishing us for being happy about Gonzo

"His inability to trigger his feet quickly and make fluid redirections in space show up in run blocking and pass protection".

“Run blocking and pass protection”….what else is there?

 

[Ross12]

Nevermind... the Patriots just traded up

 

[50-yard-line]

Pats traded up.

 

[zimmy]

I assume Dawand Jones justiisn't on their draft board.

 

[JackBauer]

117 (in 7 picks) and then 120.

Seeing 112 next on ESPN.

so he has issues with the run and pass protection. Nice. Maybe he snaps the ball extremely well

NFL Channel just reported that they talked to multiple tams that were going to take him in the 5th round
