Re: Interesting mock draft
I kinda like that possibility. I think it would be a great trade, if it went down like that. And I dont think it is so unlikely, with the way the pats have been a little out of character this off season in free agency and the fact that ANYTHING is possible come draft day.

Re: Interesting mock draft
We are going to have to pick at number 6 how about that. No one will trade with us, and we will have no more first day picks. I hope that there are a bunch of diamonds in the 2nd day rough.

Re: Interesting mock draft
I think that its a common misconception that the pats are way out of character this season. They have a ton of draft picks to build for the future, which is what they do. They didnt give any picks away. The signings that they made were not all as big as youd think, with the amount of space that the pats had under the cap, they could have spent alot more, and the signing bonuses on a number of the "large contracts" were tiny. I think Stallworth got a 3 mil bonus to a 30mil contract or something like that. They actually didnt spend as much money as you would think.

Everyone thinks all you have to do is draft a player at a position of need and you have filled that need, not so! Take a look at last off season, and we still have a need for a pass rusher, and a safety, why? Draft the best available player, we have so many holes to fill because of our stupidity, it would be just like us to trade down get 2 players who are average at best, and the Pats walk away with a perenial pro-bowler. The question must be asked, if the Pats are indeed willing to make this trade, why? Why not keep the picks and draft these players themselves? The one team that has proven to may be the best team in the NFL at spotting talent, is willing to give up 2 #1 picks to draft Landry, why? |

How do you know that the Pats are going to pick Landry? Since offensive and defensive success is predicated on line play, you can't honestly think the Redskins defense would be better off taking a rookie safety over two defensive linemen. If you do, you need one of Al Koken's virtual physicals. Why do the Eagles only draft linemen with their first round picks year in and year out? Because it makes sense. |

Re: Interesting mock draft
I just don't see this draft going that way. First C.Johnson just might be the Raiders first pick. If that happens look for Russell to go to the Lions. Then who knows what happens. Sitting three the Browns could take a QB or RB in Quinn or Peterson. If it is Peterson then look for the Buc's to move down with a trade with Miami so the Dolphins get thier QB. But if the the Browns take Quinn and who could blame them with Frye and Anderson as your QB the Buc's would be left holding the bag! I really don't know what the Browns will do! But what ever they do it will have us all watching because then teams will wanted to move up to get Quinn like Miami [if they Fins don't pick up Green before the draft]. That is if the Browns go with Peterson. If they[Browns] go Quinn then Peterson is left there TB may trade out to a team like the Vikings maybe? TB may just go with G.Adams DE for that matter. What ever happens if Al Davis throws everthing out the window and gets Johnson it could be very fun first few hours on saturday.

We have gaping holes with the pass rush and run stoppers up front. You think we should just ignore that and draft Adrian Peterson? |

Re: Interesting mock draft
I would like this trade if we are sure we can get some guys that we like on our draft board. I personally am a big fan of Ben Grubbs the OG from Auburn. He wouls be an upgrade over Doc. I'm sure of it. That guy has a high motor and put 225 40 times at the combine. He would be a steal at 28.
Now at 21 I like Justin Harrell but there also could be a DE there to. I have been saying I would like this trade to go down since we brought up trying to trade for Samuel ( who we don't need at this point). Now the question is how do you make up the 200 or 300 draft value points, and to be honest I don;t have an answer because I don't see the Pats coming off more picks unless they really think Landry is the missing piece or really put alot of value on finding Harrison's replacement.

Re: Interesting mock draft
You know to actually make this trade work as far as the 'Draft Value Chart' the Pats would have to include both of their #1's (24 and 28) (740pts and 660pts) as well as their #3 (91) (136pts) AND their #4 (127) (45pts). Which would bring them to 1581, which would still if you want to get really technical leave them 19 pts short of the #6 value of 1600 ... which they could make up by including their compensatory pick in the 5th round (171) (23pts).
So ... To actual satisfy the value as dictated by the draft value chart the Pats would have to give the Skins their two firsts, their third, fourth, and fifth round picks. Which would leave the Pats with less draft picks than the Skins currently hold (the Pats have no #2). Obviously the value chart is a guide, but if it shows you how valuable the #6 pick is and how jealously the Skins ought to guard it if they really want to get proper value in return. I don't, however, forsee Roger Goodell saying ... "We have a trade ... the Patriots move to #6, in return the Redskins receive picks #24, #28, #91, #127, and #171." I guess you could talk about picks in future years, but man this would be a complicated trade.
