DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION **The Official Day 1 Patriots Draft Thread**

[Picone's Patriots]

awwww i wanted jones on the patriots, well at least hes not going cheap LOL falcons paying top price

 

[ausbacker]

Dimitroff is off his rocker

What during his tenure at Atlanta would lead you to that conclusion? He's only been the best executive in the NFL for the past couple of seasons with what he's done for the Falcons.

It's a very costly trade for the Falcons but they've clearly gone into win now mode.

 

[resdubwhite]

WHY? THis makes very little sense

 

[Patspsycho]

That is an egregious waste of draft picks.

That's an understatement. Five picks. Three this year, two next year.

 

[reflexblue]

Holy Crap, the Falconians just got HOSED!!!

Its worse than you think

 

[West Philly Patriot]

Lets just hope the browns used protection.

 

[MoLewisrocks]

Atlanta moves up to six for Jones! Give up a 1 and 4 in 2012!

Plus 27 and a 2nd and 4th in 2011...

 

[Water Boy]

Anyone have that trade in their mock?

 

[Rob0729]

ESPN just showed Jones' lowlight package and I thought I was watching Chad Jackson.

 

[VJCPatriot]

Julio Jones - SUSPECT hands! Glad the Pats didn't move up for this guy. But maybe the Pats smokescreen, rumored trade prompted the Falcons to jump that high?? BB manipulating the draft!

 

[Deus Irae]

Huge gamble for the Falcons on this one.

 

[TriplecHamp]

Thats a really awful trade for Atl. But they look good right now.

Aaron Rogders lit them up in the playoffs. They really gave up a lot for him. Not a fan of that trade.

 

[Blizzzard]

This is the model for getting some team to take a WR higher than his slot... have BB pretend he wants him.

Percy Harvins bank acct. says HI!

 

[JackBauer]

Wow.

Don't like that at all for the Falcons.

 

[PatriotsInGA]

Oh sweet Jesus.

2 combined 1R picks

1 2R pick

2 combined 4R picks


horrible trade ATL

 

[jefmblrd]

Wait thought that sounded like a steal....let me correct that according to NFL Network Atlanta gave up the 27th, 59, 124 and their first and 4th next year. WOW!

 

[Rob0729]

Wow! The Falcons gave up too much even without concerns about his drop pass issue.

 

[PatriotsInGA]

Blaine to the Niners?

 

[Water Boy]

What during his tenure at Atlanta would lead you to that conclusion? He's only been the best executive in the NFL for the past couple of season with what he's done for the Falcons.

When he spent 5 picks to get a single player.

 

[VJCPatriot]

Atlanta going DITKA on the trade for Julio Jones. I have to say LOL. Wow they got screwed on that trade.
TWO 1st round picks, ONE 2nd rounder, and TWO 4ths??!

Atlanta got PRISON R***ED on that deal. They definitely dropped the SOAP!
