Stizzeal..

See a lot of complaining about no WR, but if the TEs work out that's going to help a young QB significantly more than a good WR.

Exactly. And improved TE play will help WR play. Etc etc.

It could be worse, we could be Jete fans...

Side note : M Rolle is very well spoken and one doesn’t need to be told all of his academic prowess to know that he is a very sharp guy.

You mean the Pats might pay a price for picking at the bottom of the personnel barrel for the better part of 2 decades??? Horrors!!! Now where did I put my sackcloth and ashes?

They're going to pay a price because BB cannot evaluate college WRs. Fairly important position to evaluate effectively when you're in a passing league.

Come on now, Tony.. You're using facts.. Can't have that.. You'll break their delusions and put sunshine on their misery.. .

 

[mgteich]

Jesus, how many wide receivers do you think they need and will carry? Should they draft 4 more just so they can cut 3 of them?

Hmm

makes sense to me
If our 6th's and 7th's could produce one WR worthy of making the team, then by all means draft four WR's

 

[WaterfallJumper]

Oooh, up we go. I'm curious who we liked -- all my top guys are just about gone.

TRADE - Patriots on the clock,

 

[Deus Irae]

Michael Onwenu OL



6'3" 350

 

[long distance]

5 picks left?? That's a ton in 6/7. Wouldn't mind using the 7th for a trade up right about now.

Who's the diamond in the rough we're getting?? I know it's coming.

Who you got?

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

What did we give up?

I’m good with the pick, we needed interior line depth

 

[jboston19]

The online is addressed with another Michigan alum.

 

[Jredman17]

"Michigan interior offensive linemen Michael Onwenu is a massive and powerful blocker that dominates in condensed spaces. His functional strength can overwhelm opponents and there isn’t any pass rusher that is going to play though him. With that said, his heavy feet and lack of fluidity present restrictions mirror pass rushers, getting out in space and working laterally. Onwenu has the upside to start in a gap power scheme but he’s a scheme-specific player that lacks versatility." - Draft Network

PATRIOTS -Cameron Brown - LB - Penn State

Michel Onwenu - G - Michigan

EDIT: NFL.Com originally posted Brown to the Pats

[Give Kraft A Hand]

They really aren't picking a WR are they?
