TOO LATE. I'M COMMITTED NOW.
. . . mostly I'm just having way too much fun with this new tool. It certainly isn't the final say (or even the biggest component of my scouting), but it's a fun way to establish a baseline.

I could see a minor trade up for Roquan Smith if he slides past 13 or so, or for Chubb 7-9. I am not seeing it for a QB, OT, or DB.Bradley Chubb, IF he Falls to say 7-9 range, could we see BB trading up for him?
Personally i feel he is the only player in the draft who BB would trade up for

Agree. There's not a Joe Thomas OT, there's not a Revis or a Brady/Manning
Smith is an interesting one and it drives me mad, as i think he will be one of the best LB in the league but his size worries me with the way we play our Scheme, which is why i'm more of a fan of LVE
I mean if you’re asking for a Joe Thomas, a revis, or BRADY, or a manning, you’re asking for a player who is possibly one of the greatest to ever play their respective position( they certainly are). If there were any players of that caliper, and excs and coaches knew about it, there’s no way we would ever get close to drafting them. I think that might just be expecting to much.
Someone interesting might fall within range of a trade up
I agree, because as Pat Kirwain on NFL Radio's Moving the Chains said this past week, the Patriots need as much good, young, healthy Talent as they can get their hands on. I no longer see any need whatsoever to lose ANY picks for a trade-up now that we have #23. If anything, this might afford Bill the opportunity for a small trade-Down to acquire a 4th-round pick.Fitzpatrick and Reid are pretty similar. I'd rather take Reid at 31 / 43 than trade up for Fitzpatrick from 23. That's just me.
Unless Mayfield falls to the Packers pick.I agree, because as Pat Kirwain on NFL Radio's Moving the Chains said this past week, the Patriots need as much good, young, healthy Talent as they can get their hands on.

If we get a LB at 23, wouldn’t be shocked if we deal 31 for a 1 next year and a 4. DL class loaded in 19. Clemson boys, Bosa, Oliver, Thompson, Gary and others.Agree 100% about the end for the Patriots to add as much talent as possible in this draft. Lots of question mars looking ahead to the next 2-3 years a lot of which could be addressed in this draft.
EDIT: Plus he had the best 3-cone drill of all LB's at the combine with a 6.64Don't know if he's been talked about already but Dorian O'Daniel from Clemson looks like the perfect late-round LB for Belichick to take:
STRENGTHS
Madman on special teams. Finished career with 48 special teams tackles and most of them in kick coverage. Has a gift for playing past kick return blocks and maintaining focus on the returner. Technically sound as tackler. Sees what he hits and drives upper body into target while wrapping to finish. Possesses agility for lateral tackles against cutback runs. Hustles to contain against perimeter runs. Offers versatility. Played near the line and matched up on slot targets. Redirects routes with force. Reads and squeezes from zone. Finished 2017 with seven passes defensed including two pick-six interceptions.
Agreed. Pats have alot of long term holes that need to be addressed.Agree 100% about the end for the Patriots to add as much talent as possible in this draft. Lots of question mars looking ahead to the next 2-3 years a lot of which could be addressed in this draft.
And is no slouch in the passing game either
