BTW, once again I need to compliment the scouting eyes of our draft forum. Consistently they identify guys in October and November that could be good 2nd or 3rd round picks for the Pats based on everyone else’s drsft boards at the time, and turns out they’re actually 1st rounders. Thineman, Mesidor, etc. Some guys here could be real assets for NFL teams, but I’m happy we have them here.

Rutledge
Sorry Mayo

 

[mayoclinic]

Worst 1st round evuh.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Rod rutledge off the board

 

[Palm Beach Pats Fan]

Flurry of trades here!

 

[Husse]

Ugh, just feels more and more like the pick is going to make me feel meh.

 

[Wozzy]

Trade back, there’s nothing left worth a first. Get value here.

 

[mayoclinic]

Or Howell.

If the Pats take Howell I'm gone for another decade.

LOL....4th round. Where do you get that nonsense. Look at ten draft boards and you'll see huge discrepancies between where players are rated. I created a spreadsheet to track it. Some boards might rate a player in the 300's while others have him Top 80. If you only look at one board, you're looking at an incomplete picture. Once you study a bunch of them, you'll start to see where guys value really is.

Many observers felt Crownover was the best Olinemen at the Senior Bowl. He's 6'7" 330 lbs with 35" arms. He started his career as a TE and DE which tells a story of his athleticsm. He's very similar to Max Iheanachor.

You're the one talking nonsense. I've not seen Crownover mentioned higher than mid 3rd with a majority in the 4th. So please stop with the BS. You're embarrassing yourself.

Worst 1st round evuh.

The Cole Strange First Round for me.

This isn't that deep of a draft. I'd say trade down, but this pick might be the whole draft tbh.
