DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION 2024 Draft Day LIVE Discussion Thread Day 2

There goes Patrick Paul to Miami.

Well, I’d rather the Pats drafted Paul so we’ll see who made the better pick over the next few years.

 

[raduray]

Their degrees in broadcast communication makes them experts?

As opposed to members of this forum?

 

[skinnydog]

Let' see him play, not all good WR's are super fast.

The great ones usually are, if you’re ok with good, then . . .

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Yes, because he’s a good solid receiver. Who on 5he Pats pulls coverage away from him?

This is a multi-year rebuild. Let’s see what the personnel looks like a year from now. Maybe we add that guy in FA next year (should be a better crop to choose from).

 

[VJCPatriot]

I just hope we can pick up a tackle next.

And hopefully the Eagles don't take our guy like they usually do almost every single year. LOL.

 

[Toofy]

Why do you draft wide receivers who lack route running and are slow ... makes zero sense... really frustrated . Guess outside of maye , we will be splitting hairs on each pick..

So far wolf is super conservative and extremely disappointing....

 

[Since1960]

Yeah but one team’s “mediocre” (Colts) is another team’s “superstar” (that would be us)….

 

[cmasspatsfan]

We won't know how good this draft is until 2-3 years down the line.

The great ones usually are, if you’re ok with good, then . . .

Was there a great one to pick there?

 

[Big Bucks]

Please move up and get Roman

Repeatedly taking average to poor players is making what should be a fast turnaround a multiyear rebuild... I'm so sick of hearing this.

There's no excuse for taking bad or average prospects too early or signing average free agents... none.

 

[Uptown]

Wasn’t Sinnot considered a 3rd or 4th rounder?

Yeah, that’s what I kept seeing. I guessinot lol..

 

[bakes781]

I wanted Kneeland

 

[Ross12]

Yeah, that’s what I kept seeing. I guessinot lol..

This is what I don’t understand. When another team reaches on an offensive player by multiple rounds they’re “winning the draft.” When the Pats front office take a player 10 slots too early they need to be fired

I would have taken the kid from Texas, Mitchell. Great speed, touchdown machine. Yes, he was there and has the skills to be great, not just good.

That math checks out what's the issue?

Repeatedly taking average to poor players is making what should be a fast turnaround into a multiyear rebuild... I'm so sick of hearing this.

How do you know Polk is average to poor?

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

We just picked a WR and a lot of you want them to move up to pick another WR
No. How about we get a OT next

Thornton has great speed, speed isn't everything.

 

[Kdo5]

Thornton has great speed, speed isn't everything.

Brains are a good start.

 

[Wozzy]

How do you know Polk is average to poor?

He was the second best WR on his own college team.

If Polk turns into a "good" starter and Patrick Paul does as well... the Dolphins win.

Not only is there a bigger premium on left tackles, but he was taken 18 picks later.

The Pats needed a left tackle, Okorafor sucks...

The Maye pick was a no brainer, I'm concerned about what they do going forward.
