DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Official 2018 Draft Day Three (Rounds 4-7) Thread

[FoxboroFlyer]

We got a 5th rounder that is about equal to Roberts. Folks expected competition for Van Noy.

There has to be a trade coming, for a vet LB.

Ja'Whaun Bentley was the first three-time captain in Purdue football history. Patriots have drafted three captains in four picks so far.

In an ideal world

"Ideal world"?? You realize this is the NFL, right?

 

[Deus Irae]

Not a lot of those in this draft.

They were there. It was apparently more important to be able to get extra picks in the 6th round and next year, though.

Shaping the locker room

This draft will forever be known as the one Tennessee screwed us...HARD.

And then what happens in the SB?

If you dont recognize how ridiculous and out of touch not being satisfied with appearing in a SB is then I am not sure what to discuss really. Fans here really need a reality check to get back where they can truly enjoy success and not feel just relieve when they win it all.

As we go to a 3rd consecutive SB?

when's the last time the SB loser went back to the SB??? it doesnt happen

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

Can't wait for next year to do the same thing over again. I still got a hunch though that BB will trade one of those second rounders for a legit defensive prospect in someone's roster.

Predicting QB next

There has to be a trade coming, for a vet LB.

Or a free agent signing. Bowman and Casillas are probably on speed dial.

And then what happens in the SB?

Well we win or lose in a one score game. Now go speak to those fans who don’t even get the privilege of seeing their team in even one SB.

 

[Soliel]

We got another fifth?

 

[d312]

Pretty sure those people were hoping for a LB that at least had a chance to cover a live human being.

Not mad...disappointed! We need speed. Linebackers that can cover. Remember the SB.

Burfict. J/k

Avery off the board a couple picks later . . . that hurts. He would have been dynamite.

Bentley's tape is very good, but his testing numbers lack a little explosion. That said, his 10 and 20 yard splits are both above average for a LB, and so is his 3-cone. He's not a total stiff, despite poor jumping numbers. I think he's got a shot at displacing Roberts.

I literally remember hearing the exact same about Roberts, though. He was praised for his leadership ability.

Well the 2 best were off the board by 23.
