As I've mentioned before, Scott is not a suitable example of a Pats draft bust, as he was IR'd his first two seasons in the league. Hardly poor scouting by Belichick when a highly productive draftee can't overcome his injuries to remain on the Pats roster, and prove why he was worthy enough to...

:( I feel like I want to invite you to a party -- except I don't do parties. :(

I heard the audio of his Q&A and had no problem with what he said. Fans and media are too reactive and consistently rush to manufacture controversy. The human race is not as evolved as some may think. The lynch mob mentality still exists -- where facts are seldom welcomed. Correct. As disturbing...

I posted the following in it's own thread, but it seems to fit better here:

Nick Saban has a different opinion on Hightower: Nick Saban: If he lands in a 3-4 defense, Courtney Upshaw bound for 'very good career' | Dallas Cowboys News - Sports News for Dallas, Texas - SportsDayDFW

He shut down 3 larger receivers: Blackmon 6'1" 207 McNutt 6' 3' 226 Cunningham 6'1" 211 That's very Ty Law-like, who was admittingly tougher vs the larger folks. --- Yeah, he and Jeffery got tossed out of the bowl game. Tough kid, but have to play smarter in your bowl game -- the team needs...

Bump -- just updated info.

Epic win. Very familiar with four players: Jones, Hightower, Bequette, Dennard. Confident I know how they'll complement the Pats core players, and how their addition will upgrade the entire D. Never heard of Tavon Wilson, but researched the heck out of him last night. What I was able to find...

Really? I usually wait at least 2-3 years. :rolleyes: But we can still respond to a poll now before they all hit the field.

Mods, please merge all of his threads into this one. We have the welcome mat out for Jones, Hightower, and Dennard. It's only right we also welcome Tavon to the Pats. Researched the heck out of him last night, found some impressive tidbits: Longtime HC at Illinois (now former) was Ron Zook...

:ugh: The Pats do not draft according to consensus rankings. They seek out players who fit their system based on specific criteria. The Pats scouts and coaches know this criteria, the Kipers of the world do not. Some sleeper picks are known, and some are not. Facts are -- some do succeed. And...

48. Tavon Wilson

CB Chase Minnifield - on my Pats list for two seasons. Excellent sub-package prospect. Solid all-around player w/ ball skills. Josh Robinson - maybe the draft's fastest CB, but most attractive is this unmentioned fact: Tied Asante Samuel's passes defensed record (interceptions & tipped passes)...

Correct. BB only gave up a 3rd and 4th for these two tradeups, which is in line with the most he's ever given up -- a 3rd and 7th for Graham way back when. I actually think he may have had reservations about parting w/ even one second-rounder this draft, which he kind of hinted at here:
