My picks from the Mock Draft Game I will either look double down geniusish or remain as insignificant as always, either way I am drinking a brewery vat of beer.
(I subbed in Carter for A. Smith because I cannot see us taking Smith)

Go Pats!

Every year we try. Most years we fail. Time to try again! Why? Because we're gluttons for punishment! And because it sure beats reading about CBA litigation.

One practical note: to assure that your brilliant guesses are counted, make sure to use full first & last names and spell them right.

...Sure enough, this year's exercise in humility offered plenty of frustration to go around. Only one out of all of our dedicated Patsfans entrants made it to that "outstanding" level. And the winning score is:
1.5
That fractional honor goes to cstjohn17, who predicted Kareem Brown DT Miami, and..."Reggie Merriweather FS Miami."
A tip of the hat also to SamBamsFan who was the only other poster to pick ANYBODY but Meriweather -- he tabbed Justise Hairston, misspelling him only slightly.

Aw Patschick, when i have to spell them right it takes all the fun out...

Every year we try. Most years we fail. Time to try again! Why? Because we're gluttons for punishment! And because it sure beats reading about CBA litigation.

The Patriots have 9 picks. Name 9 players you think they might take. That's all there is to it. You can list 9 offensive linemen, only first rounders, no first rounders, whatever you like. Each player actually drafted by the Patriots earns you a point. Any score above 1 is hot stuff.

(Mark Morse has introduced an intriguing new wrinkle this year with a weighted, slotted contest. But I received enough requests for the classic lazy version, I figured I'd post this too. Enter both and give yourself 2 chances to look smart!)

One practical note: to assure that your brilliant guesses are counted, make sure to use full first & last names and spell them right.

Here's last year's PatsFans Draft Contest:
The Annual PatsFans.com Draft Contest: Name Your 12

Despite Jared Odrick being by far the most popular pick, several people did get three picks correct.

I'm having a lot of fun right now going through the various threads from that time period (go back 20 to 23 pages if you want to see for yourself) reading the reactions to the draft, and predictions and commentary leading up to it.

Seems like about half got Mesko. A lot of folks got Gronkowski. Several got Spikes or Hernandez and a few got Cunningham. Only saw one entry that picked Taylor Price, but I did see one entry that picked Dane Fletcher (which probably deserved some sort of award).
