The Patriots chose not to move up in the first round, and chose Brandon Meriweather, safety out of Miami, with the 24th overall pick. This was a great pick! Meriweather is a tremendously hard hitter that can step infront of any pass. His awareness is phenomonal, and all around, he is one of the best [...]
ROUND 1, PICK 24: BRANDON MERIWEATHER, S, MIAMI
While the actual draft wasn’t all exciting for Patriots fans, the Pats really picked up some long term investments. First, starting with the only player the Patriots drafted, Brandon Meriweather. Meriweather, a former ‘Cane, has a lot of talent. However, character issues pushed him late into the first [...]
One more mock draft after this…
Round 1, Pick 24: Ted Ginn Jr., WR, Ohio State
As other receivers rise up the boards, Ginn is dropping slightly. He came in for a pre-draft workout with the Pats, so he’s definately on the Patriots radar. At 24, he will also be the best player available. Don’t be surprised [...]
You can call me crazy, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the Patriots selected Louisville Runningback Michael Bush with their 2nd first round pick, or moved up to choose him in the second round. Heading into last year, he looked to be an early-mid first round pick. Then he broke his leg in the season [...]
1st Round, Pick 24: Aaron Ross, CB, Texas
Ross’ stock has only been going up. He has tremendous speed, decent size, and a sixth sense on finding the ball. He will give the Patriots another future shutdown corner.
Other possibilities: Leon Hall, CB, Michigan
Round 1, Pick 28: Paul Posluszny, LB, Penn State
(see previous explanation)
Other Possibilities: Michael Griffin, [...]
1st Round, 24th Overall: Ted Ginn Jr. WR, Ohio State
Ginn Probably won’t fall this far in the draft, but if he does, this is a must pick for the Pats. Ginn was amazing during the combine, and as I said before, he really is a Patriots kind of guy.
Other Possibilities: Dwayne Bowe, WR; Robert Meachem, [...]
1st Round Mock Draft
After hearing Ted Ginn Jr.’s interview, he seems like the kind of player New England would like to have. With that, I’ve made some changes to the Patriots 1st round mock draft. Feel free to leave your own opinions on who you think the Patriots should draft.
Pick #24 – – Ted Ginn [...]
Here is my first go at he Patriots picks. I will expand to all 7 rounds later on.
Pick #24
Texas S Michael Griffin
Pick #28
LSU WR Dwayne Bowe
I doubt Belichick will take Bowe, as I’m not sure he is the best player available at the time. Dwayne Bowe is better than any other receiver at this point [...]
