There is no such thing as a "can't miss" at #23 regardless.The same talent IS NOT there at 33-50, There is no can't-miss sure-stud ILB like Kenneth Murray in the 2nd round .
Ernie Adams is upstairs in the West wing guest bedroom with his headset.
You can call it whatever you want, the same exact level of talent won't be available. They've taken the ponies over the horse approach.There is no such thing as a "can't miss" at #23 regardless.
Your argument is he's a can't miss prospect. I disagree. Plus if you read some of the scouting reports Murray is a questionable system fit so regardless if he is a can't miss prospect or not, clearly NE didn't think he was a great fit for their system.You can call it whatever you want, the same exact level of talent won't be available.

All true. Also the first rounder gets paid more. The difference easily can mean keeping a vet role player or not. The great thing is BB really doesn't look at pedigree. Whoever can fill the role at an appropriate cost will stick. If that means a vet beats out a rookie that he just picked, so be it.The draft isn't a spectator sport for 1 thing. It's not to entertain us. I can't even count how many times over the years I've waited around or stayed up to see who they're going to pick at a certain spot, only to see it traded. Dozens.
Always picking in the low 20's or 30's, we're used to having nobody on the board with a 1st round grade in their opinion, so they often trade out or attempt to. We're fortunate there was a trading partner if they felt this way; look at Atlanta last night who wanted to trade down from 16 but couldn't find a suitor.
In this case we just manufactured a high 3rd rounder out of thin air, and all it cost us is that the guy we get at 37 is only say 95% of the guy we could have gotten at 23.
Yes, it will be a long year. We will have a QB who has never started a game before. We have let many of the vets we had walk, especially on defense. People are going to get to know what a losing NE season looks like. Many will bail. So be it.With all the ****ing holes weve got, Bill is going with the bucket of roofing sealant approach vs tube of super glue. Now we need to pray some of them stick. If we have another supremely dud draft w/o #12, it could be a loooooong year.
Sorry, yes, I did missed any sarcasm and did not take posting history into account. After being up till midnight to watch the inevitable trade down my brain may not be fully engaged yet.1. I think that is sarcasm
2. You are clearly missing the point.
3. You have ignored subsequent posts in which I conclude we couldn’t have done any better
4. You clearly don’t know my posting on here and where I stand on the whole BB the GM thing.
It'll make the eventually successful rebuild that much more satisfying, right?5-11 coming soon! Enjoy!
How is he a questionable system fit? ILB is ILB. Every ILB has to shed blocks, cover, blitz, and tackle. There's no real difference between "systems" for an ILB.Your argument is he's a can't miss prospect. I disagree. Plus if you read some of the scouting reports Murray is a questionable system fit so regardless if he is a can't miss prospect or not, clearly NE didn't think he was a great fit for their system.
Not trying to collect talent but build a team.
LMFAO, Murray would have been a perfect fit in the system. There aren't many systems that a talent like Murray wouldn't be a perfect fit in. Stay away from the scouting reports and watch the player. That said, there is still some talent at that position on the board, should they want to go that route. But please don't say that a player like Murray wouldn't have been a system fit. Kid's a stud.Your argument is he's a can't miss prospect. I disagree.

Too small at 240 in the NE system and he isnt MayoHow is he a questionable system fit? ILB is ILB. Every ILB has to shed blocks, cover, blitz, and tackle. There's no real difference between "systems" for an ILB.

Last night was lesson in draft mystery. Somehow the 2 best teams SF, KC got much better.. then pick23.. disappeared.
Widgibob? LOLYou're claiming something as a weakness in an analysis, when it's no such thing. The JAG trade was JAG for a second. That's it. Subsequent actions don't change that. If you pay me $40 for something (let's call it a widgibob), and then I take the $40 bucks and spend it on a DVD, a lunch out, some gas for my car and something for a pet, that doesn't magically make the trade having been a widgibob for a DVD, a lunch, gas for my car and something for a pet. The deal between you and I was still $40 for a widgibob.
