Draft worst case has emerged for Pats at 4

[Grogan14]

Browns AND Giants not taking qb
Picking 4th in draft with 3 blue chppers
No team has to trade up to 4 to get Sanders
Top LTs all with major downsides
Trade demand for 4th pick likely to be low

They are locked in to having to draft a short armed LT with a 4th overall pick

Not ideal

Pick 38 will be critical
Can not have another draft like last year in roubds 2-7

2 blue chippers in draft. and we have no idea what browns or giants are going to do. if giants loved Sanders, do you think it makes sense for them to tell the world how much they love him and possibly make browns re-think their decision to take him? no scenario has emerged. teams put out information they want out there.

Who cares. This story ended the last day of the season.

Also there is gonna be way more than 2 legit players in this draft and almost certainly all of them will be better than the two everyone keeps talking about.

If Vrabel is worth all this damn praise then he's gonna find the right person.

Id trade the pick anyway.

There will be a trade down opportunity.

I wouldn't mind a extra pick or two Hunter or Carter should give us a haul: a Future First rounder in a Trade.

If Sanders is there trade with a team trying to get above the Raiders for him and draft Jeanty.

If the team agrees with that they will trade down. Good opportunity to load up.

Last draft was an example of what can go wrong when you draft for need.

I’m more scared of Breer’s theory we may go with Jalon Walker at 4. Dear God

I was just about to say something similar without using a specific player though.

Our fears seem to be coming true rumors are both QBs aren't going ahead of us but the worst case scenario will be what we do now?

It's on Vrabel and Wolf not to blow it by trading down for too little and/or not getting the right guy. A few of these guys are going to be really good despite their flaws and we need to be sure we don't let need or an extra day 2 pick get in the way of picking the right one.

There are overlooked players in almost every draft. I’m sure there will be gems hidden somewhere.

 

[Fuzz]

The 4th pick is still the 4th best pick any team has, no matter how pessimistically you want to look at it.

There may only be 2 blue chip prospects in this draft, but that doesn't mean that there are only 2 blue chip NFL players.

 

[UGAPatsfan]

Goddamn it…I had only just been able to say “Jerod Mayo” without adding “MF’ing” as his middle name.

Now you remind me how badly he F’d this team by being both a **** coach AND winning a game that had NO upside to win screwing the Pats one last time before he left.

Ugh.

That said, I also calm myself by remembering that Jeanty, Warren, Walker, and even Campbell will all likely be very good NFL players for a long time and that isn’t nothing given the state of the roster.

Can’t control the quality of rd 1 in any draft. Gotta take the players available and do the best you can.

I’ll take a bunch of solid doubles of a HR isn’t there

I would go with Jeanty if Hunter is gone at 4... We need a RB to get some pressure off of Maye...

I have been telling people for about 2 months now that the above is exactly what is going to happen (once it became clear Cleveland wasn't taking Shedeur), but I guess now it has finally "emerged".....

It is a crappy year to have #4.

Me too if that's the case just Draft Mason Graham. Beer is Reaching like Wolf last year after the First Round.

 

[Ross12]

Glad you know exactly what the Browns and Giants are going to do. How'd you get inside access to their draft boards?

Mayo screwed himself with his abysmal Coaching: among other things Mr: one and done. He'll be on the Highschool level soon enough...he isn't ready for the College or Pro Level.

Yes, it is absolutely terrible to pick before 28 teams in every round plus have an additional 3rd. ROFL!
