Even in frustrating times, such as the beginning of this season, I am amazed by BB. This guy just keeps finding players that contribute. The board is all up in arms re : "another STer?" But some of them end up being much more. It's too early to tell, but if B can be even decent at CB, it'd be a revelation.
It'd be interesting to compare NE's TC & in-season pickups vs Cleveland first rounders during the BB era. Pretty confident BB would have more to show...
I guess as an amazing low-risk/high-reward finder of undervalued talent, who very very occasionally is awestruck and inclined to overpay for star-level guys he assumes he can conform to system (see A Thomas, Ochocinco, Haynesworth, Pot Roast, perhaps Gilmore though far too early). Way more hits than misses when looking at overall big picture obviously, though it’s easy to focus on some misses that seem to undermine otherwise quality teams. How 2017 fits into that is a story yet to be told. Not a single one amongst us would rate the NE secondary as a weakness, much less a fatal flaw of histoically bad proportions, going into this season based on the demonstrated talent and production of the DBs. Gilmore in new system aside, he’s got skills, there were zero unknowns. It’s baffling. Curious to see what Bademosi looks like this week, he’ll have to play well.If Bademosi comes on and Gilmore does not......how the hell do you then rate B.B. the GM?

So, to show that Belichick is a great evaluator of talent, you want us to compare him to Cleveland?Even in frustrating times, such as the beginning of this season, I am amazed by BB.

He played 450 snaps at corner in 2015-2016 so once again you are spewing.I prefer to call him a special teamer masquerading as a cornerback who hopefully plays well Sunday night
Kyle Arrington comes to mind as an undrafted special team guy who worked his way into a large role at corner.Sometimes a guy just needs someone to give him a chance to prove himself. He was an undrafted fa, do you guys have any idea how many teams will not let UFAs play prime positions because they have invested in higher picks for those positions. We got woodhead from the jets because they had higher drafted rbs even though they were less skilled:

Right I was speaking more to bademosi like Arrington being in the league due to special teams.We have butler as our top corner. I don't think a lot of teams would let a undrafted rookie come in for the final play of the Super Bowl.
