Yes, just like the majority on this board. He had Terrell draft at #7 and Seymour at 20, with the patriots drafting OT Kenyatta Walker.Was he a Terrell > Seymour guy way back when.
Our top three safeties all played a lot last year. Dugger should get Harmon's reps. So, I don't see Chung leaving yet. Of course, Chung's playing time could be reduced.
We can argue whether he was BPA for the Pats, but that was a pick taken directly for need first and foremost. Same with Uche. Finally, BB has even admitted in the past that need is factored in.
Best case scenario is when you’re able to take BPA at a position of need. Outside of the first dozen or so the remaining BPA is either arguable or flawed, most likely both. So the choice between BPA and need isn’t binary. Still think Bill will choose the player that best fits his desired characteristics before he will pick at a position of need if the player isn’t a good fit for his desired characteristics.
Yep. But at least that they draft for need, and need is definitely factored in, is getting realized around here. It used to be that the Patriots drafting for need was outright disputed around here.I think at this point we all can agree that there is no dogmatic BPA or draft for needs way but all factors go into whatever voodoo value equation Ernie came up with using different weights for different variables. And needs are certainly part of that.
Caserio and BB are way too pragmatic to be blindly following narrow philosophies like needs first or BPA.

Most mocks I saw were Walker, Terrell and McAllister. Terrell or McAllister were the guys I wanted.Yes, just like the majority on this board. He had Terrell draft at #7 and Seymour at 20, with the patriots drafting OT Kenyatta Walker.
Call it how it is, this draft was terrible and we'll probably be looking back in a few years confirming this. Surprisingly Colin Cowhered, who loved BB, turned on him pretty quickly. BB is usually better at getting impact players when he actually trades up, rather than running away by trading down. I turned off the draft after the legendary pick of Kyle Dugger.

The drafts since 2014 have been pretty bad, so the odds are in your favor if you think this draft will be bad.We should wait and see before we kill bill but obviously he won’t have brady to cover draft mistakes with wins anymore. I like the uche pick but i didn’t know he was that injury prone.
Lol. I don't care if he gets every pick wrong, you watch the draft because of Kiper. If it weren't for him, the event doesn't gain the popularity it has.Kiper is a twat who is never right with anything he says
I'm surprised it ever was but people don't like to go against the grain challenge narratives.Yep. But at least that they draft for need, and need is definitely factored in, is getting realized around here. It used to be that the Patriots drafting for need was outright disputed around here.
Idc about Kiper but this is true. He's like Mayweather, you tune in to hate him. And folks haven't figured out that "hating" these guys only prompts them up higher. They don't care about being right bc no one calls them out or cares to remember. Much easier and more fun to make fun of his hair. Kiper does know his stuff, he's not dumb. I would like to see how good he really is though.Lol. I don't care if he gets every pick wrong, you watch the draft because of Kiper.

Whoa, them mean words from a guy who changes his opinion on anything and everything according to which way the wind is blowing.Call it how it is, this draft was terrible and we'll probably be looking back in a few years confirming this.

I'm not sure I agree that Kiper knows his stuff. He only repeats the common consensus. I can't recall him actually having insightful analysis on anyone that wasn't readily available elsewhere.Idc about Kiper but this is true. He's like Mayweather, you tune in to hate him.

Pat Kirwin (of Sirius/XM's Moving the Chains program on the NFL channel) himself says that teams draft for need..."This is a needs-based business now..."I'm surprised it ever was but people don't like to go against the grain challenge narratives.
Every team drafts for need though. Some more than others but Bill definitely drafts when value meets need imo. You can look at his older drafts, recent ones. Hard to ignore.
View attachment 27120 New York Post gives us a C+ for this draft:
I would have taken Baylor WR Denzel Mims at 37.
Now Stidham is screwed. No speed at the perimeter for how many years now?
