What happened to the pick we got from the chiefs

The Patriots organization has one of two options. The first option is to trade up and pick a LB or CB. The second option is to trade some of the picks for future picks. The Patriots have to do this because the organization has about 10 to 15 free-agents after next season. The players need to signed or we will lose players like Richard Seymour and Vince Wilfork. The Patriots organization needs to be very careful during this draft.

This is one of those few years where BB would look at moving up. The lb’s and secondary players are in the top this year. we have the picks and the potential value for matt cassel sitting there could net us both cushing and one of the top two corners all before the second round starts.

Yeah obviously if there is a huge talent on the board that fills a need for the Pats and can step in immediately, then by all means do what you have to do to go up and get him.

Vontae Davis will be the #1 DB to come out of this draft. He is just an absolute ball hawk with physical skills like his brother Vernon, except he plays his position at a high level. He would be exactly what the Patriots need, but I’m not sure how long he’ll be on the board for us to try to make a move.

rizzo: I agree with that, however, what if there is a premier player the Patriots see as a perfect fit?

One name to keep an eye on: Vontae Davis, CB, Illinois. He is going to be soooo sick.

With the way the Patriots draft, I would almost rather see them hold on to their 2nd and 3rd round selections rather than moving up to the 1st round just to save money. But on the other hand, seeing the Pats draft high in the draft is always exciting and obviously the brains of the operation will not allow the Pats to draft a bust. Either way, New England will get better through the draft no matter where we select.

Say we kept all of our picks from the first three rounds… that would give us 5 high potential starters right near the top.

Rookies with potential we already have:
Jerod Mayo
Shawn Crable
Terrence Wheatley
Jonathan Wilhite
Gary Guyton
Vince Redd

Young guys with potential we already have:
Brandon Meriweather (24)
James Sanders (24)
Ellis Hobbs (25)
Mike Richardson (24)
Vince Wilfork (26)
Pierre Woods (26)
Ty Warren (27)

That extra second round is huge…. second rounders are in my opinion more valuable than first rounders, (You pay them less, less riding on it and still great players around in the 2nd)
Just like we had to root against the niners last year I am rooting hard against the Chargers this year
