All joking aside, I believe this draft is a success so far.

OL - You have to protect your franchise QB for him to have time to throw. Defenses loaded the box and were on Jones like ants last season.
WR - Weve all wanted a stud WR for the last 2 decades. Unless he cant learn the playbook, Thornton will be out there game 1 and should be burning defenses. AND, taking some of the heat off Jones. Defenses have not respected the Pats deep ball for good reason.
CB - Had to replace JC Jackson. Sounds like Jones has no issue playing man coverage.

Whats next?

DL or LB or S?
 
Seven picks today! I can't wait to see what the boys in Foxboro have in store for us. My binkie is now UNC QB Sam Howell as MJ's backup.

 
Today is where the foundation is solidified.
I think we need new blood on STs and some developmental fatties for both lines.

There are no jokes.

Starting guard who had greater upside than Karras at 1/3 the cost.

Burner on the outside

Sticky man cover guy and
Electric PR/KR

Anyone can criticize draft position but the needs were undeniable.

Next:
More sticky cover guys
OT
Speedy LBs
 
Got some Good Slot WR's with upside remaining in Khalil Shakir - Bo Melton and Kyle Phillips. Other intriguing WR prospects includes Kevin Austin Jr - Romeo Doubs and Justyn Ross. Very good value here for guys who could contribute in year one.

Fairly sure this forum would explode if we took a back-up QB in the 4th (assuming that's where Howell goes).

Its long past the day to turn the page on Stidham.
 
Hopefully DLine as well , still think we need something here.

Also I assume the UDFA's will be taken tonight as well ?
 
I hope they keep all 4 4th round picks and if need be get an extra 4th by trading up. There seems to be a lot of value in the remaining guyz .

Calvin Austin, enagbare , bo Melton, Matt araiza are my binkies for day 3.
 

But if Tyquan is a stud, I dont need to see Agahlor out there. Give Tyquan the snaps.

If Agahlor was all that then we did not need Tyquan.
