Who Are Your Mid Round (rounds 3-5) Guys?

Rounds 1 and 2 are where you get your starters.

Rounds 6 and 7 tend to be specialists, PS guys or final cut guys. Hopefully you might find a gem but not usually.

But rounds 3-5 can be where a draft is made. These aren't expected to be day one starters but this is where you find the guys who fill up the roster, and if things go well, find a starter or two.

So a bit like Mayo's 6th round game, you can name your 6 favourite prospects to go in this range. Unlike that game though, you can choose someone that somebody else has already taken. I just want to know your favourite prospects in this range.

Below is the consensus big board as a guide. you are picking prospects from approx 95 - 175ish. However, no hard and fast rules.

Mine:

1. De'Zhaun Stribling
2. Will Kacmarek
3. Travis Burke
4. Zakee Wheatley/VJ Payne*
5. Jimmy Rolder
6. Oscar Delp

* I'm cheating a bit here. I'd like Wheatley but he goes just before the range so Payne is my no 2 choice.

Round 3 begins on pick #65. If we use these rankings here are some prospects of interest.

OL Rutledge, Tiernan, Crownover
WR Malachi Fields, Skylar Bell, Ted Hurst
Edge Dani Dennis-Sutton, Keyron Crawford, Joshua Josephs

There are guys to be had. It just depends on how highly rated the Patriots have them and if they fall to us.
