It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Just curious on what you guys think if the Pats could get Vernon Gholston in the 1st round and Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie in the second round? Do you think Croms will be gone before then? If so, would you use are early 3rd to move up?
Your thoughts?

count Flowers out..kid has some questions to answer about recent drug thing. Tribble no thanks. King is very raw but could be a beastI can see that scenario happening. Gholston first then move up for a cb in round 2. But, I think Rodgers-Cromartie will be gone by the time we would be able to move up. I even have our trading partner in mind. Baltimore. Baltimore doesn't have a 3rd rounder. And, if they take M.Ryan in the first. They would probably be better with 2 picks instead of one. Points come out almost exact. Their pick will be 38th. Our two will be 63 and 68. As long as we beat the Giants I have these 7 db's going in round 1 right now; M.Jenkins,A.Talib,K.Phillips,L.McKelvin,R.Smith,A.Cason and Cromartie.
There are still some good cb prospects on the board though.
P. Lee - Auburn
B.Flowers - Va Tech
C.Godfrey - Iowa
T.Porter - Indiana Supposedly not a good tackler. Probably not our type.
T.Thomas - USC
I would even take another cb in Round 3. Could push for our nickel back. I'm guessing someone will offer R.Gay more than he is worth. We have M.Richardson coming back and maybe C.Scott. Maybe a guy like one of these;
T.Williams - USF
C.Jackson - LSU
J.King - PSU
D.Tribble - BC

Good idea to move up. Get quality over quantity. Would try same thing
with our third round pick to move up a little.
I can see 7 DB's going in the first round easily. Once the run starts, panic sets in and before you know it 5 are off the baord.
I can see using one of our 3rds to move up in case someone like C Long is available. But I can't see using both 3rds to move into the second round.
PS: Isn't the third round where BB usually takes huge gambles? Except for Hobbs, has BB ever had a third round pick pan out?
BB's third round picks:
J.R. Redmond
Brock Williams
Guss Scott
Ellis Hobbs
Nick Kaczur
David Thomas
So, 2 starters out of 6 picks. One of those picks (David Thomas) could still develop, and their most recent picks in the third (Hobbs, Kaczur, and Thomas) have been their best, so maybe they've improved in this area of the draft?
That's still not a good overall record in the third round though.
