We're kind of jam packed at safety, no? At least when Chung comes back...
I guess but I don't see Obi making the team and not sure what Bill is thinking.

It'll be Harmon, Chung, Brooks, McCourty and some Joejuan at safetyI guess but I don't see Obi making the team and not sure what Bill is thinking.
Richards shuttersOf all of Bill's ATROCIOUS 2nd round DB picks, who's the worst: Terrance Weatley, Tavon Wilson, Jordan Richards, Cyrus Jones, or Duke Dawson?
I actually thought Dowling could cover and his career was more derailed by injuries rather than pure suckyness like the others.
So wasting picks in fine because we win is basically what this all boils down to then?
Thats pretty much it.I don't know why people twist themselves into knots to say that people aren't bad picks if they hang around on another teams roster. He was drafted to play, and play well here. He did neither. That makes him a bad pick.
and Gronk
The second round is not an island.
The goal is putting together the best talented football team to challenge for a Super Bowl.
As long as year after year you do this, what does it matter that your strategy is to look for reaches in the second round?
This logic is ridiculous. The position is deep so we can waste picks.The expectation that 100% of draft picks will end up being major contributors leads to a lot of pointless hand wringing when one of them doesn't. It's irrational and a waste of time. On a team loaded with cornerbacks, Dawson's leg injury doomed him. Had he not been injured this all may have played out quite differently.
This is not an either/or scenario, no matter how hard you try to make it one
I absolutely despise this type of crap. We do a lot well so who cares what we don't do well. Absolute loser mentality. Good enough.
Makes sense to me.So wasting picks in fine because we win is basically what this all boils down to then?
It's just poor draftingNo it's a strategy in an overall plan.
Bill wants to take risks in the second round.

Do you think Kraft would say to Bill what happened with Dawson and he would just flash his rings smugly and walk away? Do you think Brady would throw a pick and just say "oh well I have 6 rings"? Of course not. Just because you are good does not mean there is no room for improvement.
