If Patriots cannot get QB in 1st round, I'd hope they get a STUD WR (Waddle, Smith, Toney), OR, Kyle Pitts, OR Jaycee Horn, OR, Najee Harris.

Harris has speed, moves, and a top catch RB. He is a 3 down RB.

Surely you're not seriously contemplating a...RB...in the first round - again - are you?

We have many uses for that pick, but RB ain't one of 'em...not by a damn sight.

Besides, Bill only very recently had his chance with a 1st-round pick at that position...and he blew it.

Third String But Playing on Special Teams
I picked Trask because I feel really solid about him. Has the measurables and immeasurables. Franks is my other guy in that range, and it's really close.

I think Sam Ehlinger is worth taking a 7th round flyer on. He has the potential to be a good goal-line QB. Has a very strong lower body and enjoys running between the tackles. Throws well enough to be effective near the goal lone. Put him on PS to start with, see what happens.

Third String But Playing on Special Teams
why?

perhaps patsfans should have sent a representative; it is poster here who have the interest.
Sort of my point. People on here think he is the best of the rest, but only 6 teams showed up to his pro day.

Watching a few JustinFields games and TreyLance games. Both can throw and run.

But, something stand out that I noticed. Justin will stay in the pocket as long as possible before running.
Trey does not stay in the pocket too long and start running.

What does this tell you?

I have no idea and didn't vote. It definitely seems to me it'll be a second tier guy if they draft a QB. Mills and Mond look good to me, I trust if Bill picks one that he likes them. I'm still holding out hope that one of the top 5, probably Jones, will drop. I think if SF picks Lance or Fields, Jones could drop.

Fields should use athleticism more. Despite narratives that the system was easy or did him favors, it didn't. Easily the most complex offense to run imo out of the big 5. He actually should've used his wheels more instead of taking a few shots or we.

Lance has some of the best poise & feel for a pocket in game imo. Huge jump but everything is there.

Just saw an article on Jackson Erdmann, QB from D3 school. At some point, if you get a chance, would you take a look and tell us what you think.
