Official 2018 Draft Day Thread Day Two

[long distance]

slot CB as projected earlier in the thread . a bit risky pick . hopefully they can tame him

i do like they went for tough, aggressive, nasty corner after Butler's out

would prefer other position here . esp. since its a long gap now

 

[BlueThunder]

Another meh pick.....but have to rely on BB and scouts...he moved UP to select the guy...maybe he knows something we dont?

 

[Love The Drake]

So hes going to punch a off duty cop great

When's next Pats pick???

 

[ausbacker]

I have decided I hate the NFL draft. All of these attention seeking has-beens are totally annoying.
I even found Deion and Ty to be a little annoying...but Willie Brown was cringe-worthy.

They're making the experience about them rather than the players. It's a disgrace.

People undervaluing slot players in this thread. Derwin James and Minkah Fitzpatrick were top-15 picks as slot players. I don't think Dawson's that good and I liked Oliver over him but kid can play.

Dude. You cant compare this kid to those kids. They are head and shoulders better more versatile players.

 

[NG Pats Fan]

Much better players on the board and we trade up for a midget corner who can't play on the outside

 

[stcjones]

B.B. record on drafting secondary personnel overall is not very good....Cyrus Jones just got nervous I bet

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Can't wait for pick 63 if they make it

They don't have pick 63, at least anymore.

 

[Pessimistic Pete]

Hopefully he doesn't join the ranks of other BB drafted 2nd round CBs

Cyrus Jones
Rasi-Dowling
Terrence Wheatley

 

[Todd Bradley]

I have no idea why they felt compelled to trade up there.

Feels like we just gave away a fourth for nothing

 

[BobDigital]

I didn't scout him honestly but it seems like an unnecessary trade up perhaps.

I get the feeling most teams didn't have him that high on their board. Yes starting nickle is a full time spot but I felt better all around DBs were there.

Well at least I can turn the draft off now. Turned two 2’s into I don’t even know anymore. Here’s the crazy 2nd round DB that we all expected. Even had to trade up for him with better DBs on the board. Slot corner who had 18 career starts, woohoo !

 

[PatriotSpy]

Haha Dallas getting trolled by everybody.

 

[manxman2601]

I have no idea why they felt compelled to trade up there.

Feels like we just gave away a fourth for nothing

Two other slot corners went off the board just before him.

 

[zoostation]

Blahhh don’t need another Jonathan Jones

Johnathan Jones injury late in the playoffs cost the Pats a ring last season.

 

[patchick]

Duke Dawson .....another small corner lol

How many Gilmores, Rowes and Talibs does BB have to go after before the myth of his love of smurfs dies?
