7. Reiss picks for the Pats...takes Sedric Ellis...says Pats would prefer to trade down...no surprise.
We'd have to go Rivers, Ellis, Clady, or Albert. Or reach a little further with names like Harvey, Jenkins, DRC, Mayo, etc.
I think I just threw up in my mouth reading that.
Thanks for narrowing it down, you forgot or someone else some other time ....
Why? It's a hell of a lot better than reaching for Rivers, Mayo, or Albert at #7. The Pats selected Seymour, when Terrell was the much sexier pick at #7. Looks like BB has been proven right. If Ellis is the pick, I wouldn't be upset. He has the ability to be a dominant big man on the DL. Finding playing time for him, will be the only difficulty.
Note how much criticism the Gholston pick got at #4. The guy disppears in big games, and doesn't put out effort all the time? Ouch.
You just forgot to mention that our DLine was VERY "upgradable" in 2000, which makes the Seymour pick pretty understandable. Now we have arguably the best DLine in the league, why spend our only top 10 pick in years on a backup? And please, don't tell me it would make sense because Seymour and Wilfork both have contract years in 09.
