The Official Patriots Draft (Day 1) thread

[mgteich]

We moved down five spots, picked up a 3rd and move up a little bit in the 4th.

So, we did what a lot of posters wanted. We picked up a 3rd.

And we still can have Odrick, Wilson, McCurty, or Kindle. Or we can trade down again. Someone might want to move up for Dan Williams.

This basically amounts to #22 and 119 for #27, #90, and #113...

On the value chart they come out ahead and still get their defensive player.

I am nothing short of ecstatic here

 

[BradyBranch39]

Tebow has the coach he needed.

 

[BradfordPatsFan]

seems like some of you are still drinking the "value" coolaid

The top players are off the ******* board.

You're right, Kindle, Hughes, Odrick, Williams...they are not worthy of a first round pick and the extra picks the Pats got by being patient.

 

[Sean Pa Patriot]

This is going to be dissapointment...

 

[TriplecHamp]

Just switched to ESPN for Lord knows why. They're transferring their hate for BB to Josh -- I think he's doing just fine.

What hate, they haven't said a bad word about McD.

This. I would have been happy with Kindle at 22...get him at 27, plus a 3rd, and moving up in the 4th? Very happy...

 

[BradyBranch39]

Tebow running the shuttle is hilarious having seen Julian's.

 

[ausbacker]

Hasn't Denver gone polar opposites in QB's the last two years.

 

[Free_Pacman]

What a disappointing offseason this has been...A devastating one for the Patriots.

 

[Feep50]

BB is a frickin master! Brilliant! Well done BB I love you

 

[BradyMossWelker]

While we are here wondering who the Pats will take, Alualu is wondering how in the world is he a top 10th pick

 

[Keyser Söze]

And the top player's are off the board. ******* brilliant.

Got to love "value"

 

[Nikolai]

I'm fine with this. The Pats are zeroing in on who they want and are getting extra picks in the process.

BSPN's coverage is pretty comical actually. A lot of technical bloopers.

 

[JackBauer]

Rather Odrick or Hughes than Kindle, but we'll see...

 

[muzz]

i'm sorry but this is another ******ed whiff in the first round. not drafting dez bryant. really? i guess out-thinking cushing, mathews, laurinitis, and maualuga last year wasn't enough for emperor bill.

say what you want but bryant just fell into our laps and we threw him away. if he plays even at half the level i expect him too i'm going to be throwing bottles at the TV during cowboys games for the next decade.

Didn't you hear?
Those players scked so Bill didn't take them.
Just like he's letting talent go by him AGAIN, just so Krafty Bob can save a few measley dollars!
I'm so tired of watching that cheap p/,ZHNX n/ trade down to save $ every year!

 

[SVN]

Haven't the Pats already gone the stupid, immature WR route? Sorry, I was never thrilled about the guy because I don't think he can pick up the Pats offense. The Cowboy's offense is far simplier. He is a much better fit there.

my thoughts exactly.i dont want another WR this high up after chad jackson.

 

[kwa1430]

I think they will take Jerry hughes at 27

Happy with the 3rd round pick.

 

[Uncle Rico]

What hate, they haven't said a bad word about McD.

Really? Weren't they the ones complaining about picking Thomas as WR because he reminded them of the guy they just got rid of?

 

[Patriot_in_NY]

I am pretty pumped here. Great moves.
