Someone pointed out there maybe some medical issues with him.

I'm guessing no matter who we drafted this year, you wouldn't be happy. You mentioned Brady the GOAT, but last year you couldn't stand him saying he was washed up and had a noodle of an arm.

I am expecting big things from Harris this year. I like our RB's, good versatility and I think our wr's are underrated. Sanu before he got injured in his first game with us had 10 catches...I think we are in for a pleasant surprise with him.

Brady the GOAT pretty much told us Harry sucked without actually saying it.

Jacoby May not make the team

Sony stinks

Byrd? JAG

white is good and will probably be the only offensive threat on our team

Harris is slower than a slug on valium

sanu is awful

Edelman is great but age 34 and injury prone

I'd roll the dice

Feckin’ brilliant.

 

[Love The Drake]

if we don't take him Tampa or Philly is

From a former GM:

Mike Tannenbaum
@RealTannenbaum

@UMichFootball
Michael Onwenu, who competed at the Shrine Bowl has natural play strength and can drive DL when he gets good leverage With more attention to footwork and better hand placement he can see snaps

Hopefully Scar is bored out of his mind and comes out of retirement. Stranger things have happened. I know it's not happening so no need to point it out

 

[Love The Drake]

we need a wr or qb here

 

[Bruins29]

It hasn't been difficult for awhile, but times are a changin'.

Nope you are still stupid

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

I'd roll the dice

Would not mind him, Markus Bailey and one of McDonald/Gordon at qb.

 

[iapatsfan]

Damiere Byrd ran a 4.28 at his pro day at South Carolina. That’s better than everyone in this draft but Ruggs, who ran a 4.27 at the Combine.

You're right...Brutally slow and brittle. I should have added the injury prone thing in my previous post. The Pats like their guys slow or brittle. See Michel, Mitchel, Sanu, Harry, Harris, etc.

Anything but explosive and healthy.

Not gonna fix everything in one draft.

There are those that have a fixation on the draft as the only methodology to build a team. It's been said 18 million times, but why not 18 million and one - there are multiple ways to address needs in building an entire team over the course of an offseason.

A small list - how many were drafted by BB?

Patten
Edelman
Stallworth
Moss
Amendola
Hogan
Lafell
Cooks
Welker
Lloyd
Givens

And how many had from just solid starter to excellent to all-world production during their time? Most BB WRs that produce are NOT drafted, never have been. They are either signed or traded for. Maybe because he himself acknowledges he's not a great WR drafter and would rather sign/trade for guys who have shown certain things at the NFL level? He also doesn't align the majority of cap space to WRs - also never has. Why would we think he would change that now?

You do realize BB has drafted one quality WR in the last 20 years, don't you? I don't count Edelman as he was a conversion. Branch is the only decent WR BB has drafted in the last two decades. That level of ineptitude is almost impossible to comprehend.

And yet you're desperate for him to draft more in this one...

Even if he does I'm sure you'll moan about it being some unknown or not fast enough.

I’ve been on the forum for 11 years. All these posters who act like belichick apologists are these group of 5-6 tight knit friends who post with multiple screen names. It’s hilarious

David Givens says HI.. And not counting Edelman is one of your many issues

The level of ineptitude that's impossible to comprehend doesn't belong to BB..

You're full of garbage.. There aren't people here with Multiple Screen names.. Ian doesn't allow it.

 

[italian pat patriot]

Maybe Belichick likes one of the remaining WR's, perhaps not.
WR: Hill, Jennings. Porch, Hodgkins

Also, we could double dip at
TE: Bryant
OL Wanogho, Taylor
S Reed, Stone

Let s see...in few moments we should pick with 195

Givens was good.

But youre right, Edelman was not a WR.
