Who don't you want at 14?

[Ochmed Jones]

I do not want to see us take guard with a third round grade!!!!

Or an over-aged Strong Safety from a division 3 school when there's a Pro Bowl CB still available.

Save my iPad, no Brian Branch, no skinny twig legs, no tree parts whatsoever and no T-Rex arms!!

That Belichick trying to show off how smart he thinks he is—smarter than everyone else.

zay flowers, quentin johnston, brian branch, any TE, nolan smith

Why not Zay Flowers? I am just curious; I really don't know him well except for the good press he has been getting

I mentioned him because he is getting linked to us by the media or whatever, I think 14 is too early for him , I can see him anywhere after pick 20 and I mean I really like him as a player just not at 14 like the thread title asked

Agreed. At 14 you hope for an impact player. Flowers is a nice or very good player.

How about Emmanuel Forbes? He has those skinny, skeletal legs and arms that BB so covets...but he can really play at least for a few games....

 

[FredFromDartmouth]

OK, understood about Flowers. What you said makes sense. I sure hope that when the Patriots move back, their guys are still there.

OK, that makes sense. I hope that the Patriots don't try to get too clever with their moves down the board and lose the guys they want...as may have happened last year.

Van Ness

 

[FredFromDartmouth]

Isn't there a lacrosse star in this draft? Catnip for BB. There is also the Princeton WR, Andrei Losivas....more catnip.

 

[Patriot Missile]

Van Ness

Yes 100%. Disappointed would be an understatement. He got owned by Ohio state. Watched specifically to see him play against the big boys and he was neutralized in every way imaginable. Not even sure if he is a 2nd round talent.

If anyone wants a Hawkeye, Jack Campbell and Sam LaPorta should be the ones your looking at in the 2nd round. They were consistently good to great in a majority of the games they played.

 

[FredFromDartmouth]

Bijan Robinson. Supposedly the Patriots are "intrigued"' but I am not (based on a minute of highlights, ha). He has a hesitation step in the pocket that will get him killed in the NFL. That being said, he has outstanding speed and you can see him outrun DBs in college....so I would be OK with him, but not at 14--the Patriots have more pressing needs

 

[FredFromDartmouth]

I would be excited to see Emmanuel Forbes being picked by the Patriots; he can run with anyone and has sticky hands, but he looks so frail. He is a hard hitter, but can he hold up? Would that be suicidal in the NFL? I would expect teams to run at him....

Watching him lineup against Thornton in practice would be like stick figure football, a duel of spiders.

 

[*ChungFu*]

I'd be okay with Robinson and a couple of maulers from the draft. It seems that there really aren't any elite pass protectors this year so it should be easier and less costly to pick up some run blockers and a blocking TE. Go run/short pass heavy while the rest of the division leans towards pass heavy.

I like Forbes for us at 46, but really not much earlier than that.

I like Iosivas for us any time after 135, but I suspect he'll be over-drafted.

I would take Forbes late in the first....but would be worried about durability. If you put that aside, he has all the Right Stuff; he can run with anyone, can hit pretty hard, and has very sticky hands. He has amazing acceleration of an INT. Mr. Pick Six.

I heard Paris Johnson lacks strength and was pushed around on tape.

Quentin Johnson scares me.
