DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Patriots OFFICIAL Draft Day thread - Night 1

[Bill Lee]

Don't we own LFG???

 

[Deus Irae]

You draft for a career, not a year, but fair enough.

I agree with you, in general, but I'm not as sold on what we'd call "long-term potential" as I am on "short-term to mid-term potential", because I think it's less likely to pan out as hoped.

WTF is standing behind Vrabel, the guy is dressed as a sperm

Was the trade value even equal !?!?

NEP got 5pts more than LAC on the latest chart.

Yeah, the problem with this thinking is that Bill has been brutal drafting in the 2nd round lately. I wonder if they traded back this year for financial reasons. Not sure why they can't do anything with Thuney.

He's actually pretty decent when he stays away from cornerbacks and safeties with a day-3 grade (e.g., Chung, GRONK, Collins, Light).

 

[Bill Lee]

Ala, the Pats drafting Jimmy a few years back?

Even worse, GB traded up to the 1st to pick him!

 

[skinnydog]

They've got 2 guys who's 2020 seasons are likely to be "ish". I'm marking down for that.

Probably, but I think they’re really targeting 2021 when Tua is ready.

 

[pheenix11]

Vrabel’s family is terrifying.

They certainly need to produce in year two and beyond but so many rookies struggle in year one that I give them a pass unless they look awful.

I agree. Also, Miami still has this next pick to add to their haul.

 

[WaterfallJumper]

Wilson in the first. Wow. Another guy I thought would be a really reasonable choice if we picked up a second rounder. 29th is a bit rich for me, though.

Yay!!! We win!!!

Isaiah Wilson to the Titans

Dude's a monster (350 lbs)

 

[Kasmir]

Next years team is going to be dog ****. Bill is still drafting like he has Tom Brady to bail him out.

WOAT! Bill Belichick will go down in history as the man who cost the GOAT at least 4 or 5 superbowl victories! WOAT!

 

[manxman2601]

What’s going on at Mike Vrabel’s place? One guy in a Titans gimp suit and another with a mullet.

 

[ctpatsfan77]

BTW, just saying . . . Aaron Rodgers's salary for 2020 is $1.5M.

 

[PatriotReign]

Danny Ainge and Bill always maintain such a large warchest get's annoying when you rarely ever use it.

‘Where are you on Josh Jones? Is he Solder-like?
