DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Official 2018 Draft Day Three (Rounds 4-7) Thread

Or a free agent signing. Bowman and Casillas are probably on speed dial.

Wouldn't mind Bowman...is Casillas that much better than what we have?

Ryan Allen takes first sigh of relief ..
now watch BB trade up for Anderson or Scott

Ja'Whaun Bentley was the first three-time captain in Purdue football history. Patriots have drafted three captains in four picks so far.

Woohoo ! We lead the league in captains drafted !

This draft will forever be known as the one Tennessee screwed us...HARD.

Where did Tennessee screw us ?

By all reports we wanted a OL player in round 1 (Ragnow or Wynn) and the Titans wasted trade resources to jump ahead of us to pick someone we would not have picked anyway.

And then given how empty of talent this draft is we kept trading down and stockpiling late fliers and future picks.

I didn't do any work on Dawson but I'm willing to be positive about the pick because I think good slot players actually matter a lot in today's NFL and there's still a significant bias against them because they don't fit the old model of a four player secondary with three or four big fat linebackers.

I'm less willing to support the selection of some big fat linebacker for, well, the same reason.

Does bill need a set of turtles on the field when he probably has them at home. Lol

 

[WaterfallJumper]

And there goes Shank. Ahhhhh.

Doesnt look bad

when's the last time the SB loser went back to the SB??? it doesnt happen

Please go find Tom Brady and tell him that there's no way he's getting back to the SB this season.

Love me some big, fat, slow linebackers. It's 1973 baby

Sam Hunt junior in the House ! Where’s my bell bottoms and record player ?

 

[manxman2601]

Well the 2 best were off the board by 23.

All four top linebackers were.

 

[maineman209]

Any chance he could be a smaller end of the line player rather than a lb?

The Pats have plenty of edge guys on the roster already. They were caught short on off-the-ball LBs last year.

There’s your comb8ne snub draft pick

Ok. I believe Evans was the pick, had he been there. And they traded up two picks ahead of us in the second to take Landry, who I also believe was a realistic option.

Other teams found a way to trade up in the first round. Did Goodell outlaw such things for the Patriots?

 

[BobDigital]

It's something. I'll happy take anything positive to latch on about him at this point.

We weren’t getting Smith. I guess we could’ve beat the titans offer if people want to complain about that one.

I don't think you understand how good our running game will be next season.
Top 5 I'm rushing easy.

Maybe move him to RB, looks like Lagarrette Blount.

If we want to gripe about missing Evans that’s a fair criticism. We weren’t going to move up that high for Roquan.
