It's easy, and only takes a few moments.They were invested at QB, but they needed to get help around the corpse of Eli. Nelson is a guard, not a tackle, or taking him would have made sense. There's no way you take McGlinchey over Barkley there. The rest were all QBs and defensive players. Look at the round, and you see a real lack of top end offensive weapons.To be honest I would take any of those guys outside of Rosen over Barkely. I think anyone of those other guys would be an upgrade over what they had at the time.
Gunner is a decent PR….that is all…Biggest question to me is why no accusations for Wilkerson?
Why did Gunner can completely fazed out this offense?
Why did we stop running the ball against the Cowboys?
While falling asleep is not ideal it is nowhere near as bad as the red flags Bill ignored with Easley. He threatened to quit the team multiple times at UF, had a bunch of injuries from dog bites he never disclosed to the team before he showed up, and apparently was apart of one of the most unruly classes of all time at Florida (and for that school that is saying something). Apparently Bill sided with Mike "You'd be an idiot to draft Metcalf over K'Neal Harry" Lombardi over the team scouts when he took Easley.
NFC Exec on DT Dominique Easley: "He's a turd."
Belichick Deserves Blame for Easley. That's Okay.
His arrogance on the whole "You'd be an idiot to draft Metcalf over K'Neal Harry" before the draft his laughable. Not only was he wrong about the two players but he couldn't even get the name right of the guy he was pounding the table for. He drafted a whole bunch of busts in his early Cleveland days and was a big part of drafting JaMarcus Russell, a guy whose own college coaches said don't take him. I always wondered how this guy lasted so long in the NFL.Lombardi should never be allowed anywhere near this stadium ever again... he was a Grima Wormtongue in Belichick's ear, giving him absolutely ****ing terrible advice

Wow. Going by the theory that BB the GM makes only wrong choices (then BB the coach makes them worse,) Stidham must be AMAZING, since Mac looks like the real deal right out da gate, and Stidham must be better... can't believe none of you are clamoring for him yet, come to think of it.Lombardi would make most of the homer posters here seem objective.

Source calls Patriots' Jarrett Stidham ‘their future' at QB after Tom Brady
Mike Lombardi, it’s safe to say, is plugged in on all things Patriots. He worked at One Patriot Place as an assistant to Bill Belichick from 2014-16, a period which served as a continuation of a professional relationship that began back in Cleveland when Belichick became head coach there in the...www.nbcsports.com
I think if anything haunts Belichick, it is the
Endless list of 2nd round DB busts.
Joequin Williams - 2019
Duke Dawson - 2018
Cyrus Jones - 2016
Jordan Richards - 2015
Tavon Wilson - 2012
Ras-I Dowling - 2011
Darius Butler - 2009
Terrence Wheatley - 2008
Pat Chung was the best return we got for a 2nd round DB in 2009, but he was better on his 2nd & 3rd time with the Pats than he was early in his career.
Belichick has done far better with undrafted DB’s than he has drafting them in the 2nd round
If Jonnu doesn’t improve he’s going to take that title from Harry based on his contract alone.
The myopia of not playing well and losing sets in, while these were draft failures no team is completely successful in the draft... every team has hits and misses, meanwhile the last two years have shown significant improvement. Some of the aforementioned names take place in the way back machine.
Harry's only making $2.75M but still represents more than double that against the cap. He's here for the season.I don't see Harry here much longer.
He sucks.
Amazing he has leveraged a subpar career as a personnel guy into a career as a subpar football writer/podcaster. Some people just fall upwards through life.Lombardi would make most of the homer posters here seem objective.

He's useless. Having him take up a roster spot is a waste.Harry's only making $2.75M but still represents more than double that against the cap. He's here for the season.
I'm hopeful that being in the WR room with Kendrick Bourne and Nelson Agholor helps him develop. Especially Bourne. He's a tremendous leader and straight shooter. Harry really never had a wideout with Bourne's maturity and experience to work with. Edelman was a slot guy with so many physical ailments to attend to that he couldn't really take Harry under his wing.
After this season, Harry will only represent $2.0M in dead cap money and if he hasn't taken a big step forward, he's done.
You can’t polish a turd into a diamond. He just doesn’t have it upstairs which just compounds his athletic shortcomings, relative to the position.Harry's only making $2.75M but still represents more than double that against the cap. He's here for the season.

Or pay the Steelers for whatever WR evaluation method they use......Completely blow up whatever crappy CB and WR evaluation system is used for Patriot drafts. Maybe go back to the old Steve Belichick scouting manual .
