It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Josh Rosen is the QB most likely to slide......I personally believe Rosen is the second-best quarterback in the draft class behind Darnold, but the former Bruins QB might fall out of the top 10. Why? Part of it comes back to the durability concerns for Rosen that we've heard about throughout the process. We'll continue to hear people question his intangibles as a leader, but that's far less of a concern than the fact that he missed half his sophomore year with a shoulder injury and suffered two concussions last season.
Hot take: Rudolph is better than Rosen, Allen, and Jackson. If I'm right, would you mind him at 31?
Even though I came late to the party and haven’t studied the prospects anywhere near as much as I have done previously, I’m really excited for this draft both for the Patriots (4 pickS in the first two rounds) but for the draft generally with those four QBs.
I’ve been thinking of scenarios where B.B. could disappoint us and I’m struggling to see the. Trading up for an OT is one. Taking Rudolph in the first would be another. A first found WR. Does anyone else have potentially disappointing ways B.B. could go?
Even a first found RB wouldn’t disappointment me because of the quality there is available. Guice or Michel at 31 would be absolutely fine for me.
I kind of abandon all hope when it comes to the Patriots drafting, actually. Imagining the fits of all these prospects is very fun and helps the off-season speed by, but when the pats are on the clock, they use their own draft board. It works out more than not and it's almost always not the guys I wanted. It's still very painful to see guys ranked much later get selected, and the misses really hurt, such as Jordan Richards in the 2, but ultimately Bill has found a good amount of contributors.
If he makes it to 43? Yes, please.
We’ve all been traumatised by Taron Wilson and Jordan Richards. But BB’s unique drafting style also gave us Duron Harmon so not a complete loss. My reasoning is, however, that with 4 pickS in the top 64, at least one will get us excited. Right? (said imploringly).
Oh, undoubtedly he knows these guys so much better. Not just Harmon, but many others. Even way back with Seymour, a lot of people wanted Terrell. He's got a pretty good track record despite a few misses.

There are 4 ways Bill could disappoint me in the 1st.
1. Reach for an OT
2.Take a RB
3. Trade up for Mayfield/Allen
4.Reach for a TE
Players I would like to see in the 1st round: Josh Rosen, Lamar Jackson, Roquan Smith, LVE, Maurice Hurst (medical permitting), Jaire Alexander, Harold Landry, Mike Hughes, Calvin Ridley.
My ideal scenario is Josh Rosen slipping to 8-10 range and we can swoop in with a trade up to get the best QB in the draft and our future franchise QB.Would happily trade both 1sts if needed. That would still leave us with 2 2nds to strengthen the D.
This explains why the Browns are the Browns and some things never change
Hue Jackson: Everyone still in play for No. 1
