It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Alos look to see in what rounds the Pats are award comp picks in, ( think Watson should land us a 4th rounder) the Pats have a history of moving there pick in a later round when they have an untradeable comp pick backing it up.
Most likely the Pats get none. Watson's contract I think would normally be a late 5/early 6, IIRC, and Crumpler cancels that out.
Does Jarvis Green count? He signed a pretty big contract, but was then cut.
Good question, he signed for 4 years 20 mil with a 2/5 mil signing bonus but did get cut before the first game, so I would say "no" but AdamJT13 is the blogger who knows this stuff best, he should be out with his predictions in a few weeks and we will see what he says.
That sounds kind of backwards to me. IF the teams are using the 2nd day to evaluate prospects and 'restack' their draft board that means that the 1st day is already over. Therefore how does pick #33 being traded back up into the 1st round happen when that round is by definition already over the day previous?
If a team sitting in the 22-26 range isn't really liking their options that 33 spot is a great place to be. The point is the Patriots use 33 to move another pick into the 1st round, while the round is still taking place, and the team they are dealing with takes 33 and another pick. The move is more palpable in their minds by having dibs on whatever player they want at the start of the 2nd round.
I have to say #33, someone unexpected could fall to 17 and the Pats might scoop him, and #28 is the range they like to pick in. But give BB the entire night to shop a pick, especially if one or more of the QBs are still on the board (Mallett, Capernick, Newton, etc.) and we all know that there are plenty of teams that NEED QBs. I could easily see that pick getting traded.

i never get this with comp picks... why wouldn't watson be a 3rd rounder if it's based on performance? he went 68 catches for 700+ yards and 3 tds. If it's based on contract pretty sure he got a pretty nice one from the browns too
I'm not sure I see how this benefits NE. They already have 17 and 28, after all. . . .
Yeah 3 picks in the first round isn't that great.
Not quite my point. My point is simply that I don't see how trading up from 33—with the attendant loss of picks that entails—helps them in the long run more than staying at #33 and/or trading down from there to a needy team.
