IMO this is the way BB Drafts,
first and 2th round it's the best player on the board,
3rd it's the player with the most upside,
4th Draft for dept,
5th 6th and 7th it's all about player that can do more then one thing ST players WR's that can play safety DE's that can play FB and so on,
I'd suggest that in the first two rounds BB drafts based on need but with the players assigned value NEVER exceeding the value of the particular pick.
at the end of the day BB has been rebuilding a team the last 3 years we have not seen any drop off on offense because of Tom Brady as for the defense they missed on a few picks yes but for me it's Trades and FA moves that have set the defense back the last few years,
The retirement and departure of HoF & ProBowl caliber players such as Bruschi, Harrison, Law, Vrabel, Seymour and Samuel has been the #1 factor.
for me the worst move has been keeping Moss over Samuel at the time it looked good keeping the record seting offense in one piece but looking back on it they signed a ageing WR and let a young star CB go, Moss was gone after a year and a half and samuel would still be the best CB on this team....
Not really. Samuel and Moss were on the same team in 2007 and we saw what happened. Samuel leaves in 2008, Moss stays, Brady goes down and the team finishes 11-5 so that year is a wash. 2009 Moss stays and has a 1200 yd 13 TD season in Brady's 1st year back and Asante has 9 picks. Push. 2010 the Pats go 14-2 and Asante has a horrible year for PHI. This year Asante could have helped for sure- heck anyone could.
BB did not give Asante the money because he is not a complete corner. Bad in run support and did not follow the team's defensive philosophy as he tended to freelance too much (see the AFCCG vs Indy in SB 42.) I guarantee that he will not be the Iggles next year as they have been looking to dump him and his measly 3 INTs this year.
BOTTOM LINE i can sit here and talk untill i turn blue in the face about what the pats should and should not do but come monday morning the pats will have the #1 seed in the AFC playoffs and that's why im just a fan and dont have a front office job in the NFL
Me too!
