Can I possibly introduce you to a team known as the 2001 New England Patriots?

Can I introduce you to the rookie first round DE that put pressure on the QB, or perhaps the OLB that forced Warner into throwing that pick 6 to Ty Law????


McGinest and Vrabel, hell I would take them today ahead of TBC

I can see vareen being a foster type guy but not the great rusher. Actually now that i think of it... How about a poor man's reggie bush?

He's a one cut runner. Good at blitz pickup and good at catching the ball out of the backfield and route running for a back.

Justin Houston to the Chiefs. Thanks.

How do you feel about that pick?

 

[Don Kipines]

Agreed, this was yet ANOTHER throw away draft for BB. 2010 was what they should do EVERY year, not once ever 5 or 6 years. 2010 was the first and only draft I enjoyed since 2004. 2011, a D- so far. I'm thinking the only thing going through BB's mind is that both Ty Warren and Mike Wright (he did have 6 sacks in half a season) will be 100% healthy and give us a pass rush, along with a possibly improved Jermaine Cunningham. The NFL Draft is like a holiday for me, I love it, but I had to laugh at BB's reluctance to draft high level talent. He certainly does things differently than most of us wish he did, hopefully they work out. Maybe I'll take the next few drafts off, I have a bald spot from all the head scratching.

Dude, are you high? How are Solder and Dowling not high-level talents? Both guys are physical freaks.

 

[PatsCanDoIt]

We're in a LB run right now.

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

ok back to back picks, would it actually be a crime to take someone who someday might want to tackle a QB in the backfield??

I think it was the scolding by people about "premature posting" lol

 

[b72s]

houston we have a problem

 

[midwestpatsfan]

funny how a lot of people were wanting houston at 28. Just shows how little we all know.

 

[mtbykr]

I'm completely confused by this draft so far. In a draft deep with front 7 talent, and a load of picks.....we have exactly zero front 7 picks so far. Weird since that's really our biggest need.

 

[fumbrunner]

Two picks in a row. DE and Guard. Book it!

 

[Rob0729]

I guess I move onto rooting for the Pats to draft Sam Acho.

 

[jays52]

I wanna pass rush, George. I wanna pass rusher who's soft an fluffy an I'm gonna cuddle him alllllll night, George.

This. Draft. Sucks. For. Pats. Backers.

Bueno? Bueno!

 

[Patspsycho]

On the contrary, I think this has been a solid draft so far.

We've picked a solid OT, a solid DB who is hard-hitting and a run-stopper, and an all around RB that has that first step explosion, can block and catch out of the backfield. We alternate him with BJGE. BJGE is a hard-nosed pounder who will wear them down and big V will clean up.

 

[Froob]

lol watch BB trade both into next year.
