The Official Rounds 2&3 2013 NFL Draft Thread

So, does drafting Collins with their first pick mean no Abraham, do you think? Or are they very different pieces to the same puzzle?

More likely means no Freeney.

I wouldn't rule out Abraham. However, Cunningham, Francis and Bequette need to bring their "A" game to camp this year.

First, NE traded to add valuable picks to this year's draft.

Then, with their first pick, they added a dynamic pass rusher, addressing the #1 need this team has.

Then, with their second pick, they added a fast (4.4) and big (6'3") receiver with *GREAT* hands.

Um....so far, it's very difficult to take complaints about this draft seriously.

I felt like WR was the greatest need but i love this draft so far, can't wait to see what they do with their next 3 picks.


I wish Ian would create a draft archive so that we could look back and see what people said about each draft before, during, and after it.

Love both pick.. Now Darick Rogers, Barrett Jones and Tyrant Mathieu and we can wait to 7 round and see who falls :rocker::rocker:

 

[English Patriot]

If Allen somehow falls into our lap in the 3rd then take him without hesitation.

 

[50-yard-line]

More likely means no Freeney.

Well good - I don't want Freeney. I really want Abraham - he plays meaner.

 

[manxman2601]

Jesse Williams and Blidi Wreh still out there.

And the QB's are falling so that should push some players down to us.

 

[patsfan-1982]

a pass rusher and a big WR I like this draft so far now they need some DB and OL dept

 

[Rob0729]

FWIW, CBS Sports give the Pats an A+ for Collins and a C for Dobson.

Dobson: 19 Wonderlic. On lower end for WRs they've drafted. Same as Taylor Price, better than Givens (18). Chad Jackson (15) was worst.

 

[manxman2601]

Damontre Moore still out there. How about Jordan Poyer for the Pats? Has that BB feel.

jets will take him

Swap Mathieu for Lattimore and I'm sold

 

[patchick]

Though, I would say both are likely not immediate impact players for the foreseeable future and will need some time to adjust to the NFL. I don't expect them to see a lot of playing time this season.

I no longer make any guesses about readiness, given that the last two "super-raw physical freaks" they drafted were Nate Solder and Chandler Jones.

Dobson in particular strikes me as more polished than others have made him out to be.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

He said quick, not slow. There is a difference. Dobson's 3 Cone and short-shuttle are easily the worst of any WR the Pats have ever drafted.

and that's why the pats never hit on receivers....they got to move away from that stupid 3 cone thing.

Dobson: 19 Wonderlic. On lower end for WRs they've drafted. Same as Taylor Price, better than Givens (18). Chad Jackson (15) was worst.

But from what I have read on Dobson, he is a smart player who can read defenses and adjust routes.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

has been a great draft...help with the pass rush..and a big fast WR

 

[English Patriot]

jets will take him

yeah i got them taking him too, but like i said if they don't which they are capable of doing then we should pick him up

 

[Blizzzard]

Couldn't help but think... With the pats grabbing all those extra picks in the trade with Minny, I now am starting to really lament not get Emmanuel Sanders

 

[ausbacker]

jets will take him

If anyone on the Jets has half a brain they'll look to upgrade their OL with their next picks.
