Not quite so ridiculous anymore. After the lackluster post-combine reviews, these guys may actually fall right into our laps. I would dance a jig. Four impact players in three rounds with no trading required.
Start with two great solutions at our two biggest positions of need. Great character fits from coaches that sprouted directly from the Belichick coaching tree... and both true footballers.
Then two more players that fit the Pats draft profile to a T, that play with a lot of heart and productivity-- but dont have some of the measurables that traditional scouting techniques would highlight. Measurables have never meant as much to BB/SP as the rest of the NFL.
Stock for these guys are dropping, but I stick by our earlier assessments of each: they are good players with good work ethic who will be solid pros.
Please let it be so.
