Tony Pauline: Patriots taking LB Jalon Walker @4

Said potentially...  when it's all said and done... id bet they addres oline at 4. Maye took a beating and you don't invest in a Qb and then don't protect him. Hypothetically,  if Walker did go 4...  the draft  gets even crazier. I know some scoff at trading motor but if 1 of the tackles is at 8 and they feel they can get decent compensation(1st or 2nd)  for Moton, do it.  I love Moton but with the money getting tight on the oline, you have to reset some of it somehow and all 3 tackles projected early are studs.

Panthers have shown their cards to the whole entire league by saying they love and want to draft Walker. This is just the Patriots leaking info to see if the Panthers would bite and move up to #4 to draft him. Patriots want to take Campbell but they don't see his value at the #4 pick, if they can move down and pickup picks and still draft an OT, why not?

Honestly, if we did this and took the top OT at #8, I really would not hate it

Same here!! It'd give us true BPA at 8 and allow us to use that high 2nd to address edge or wr. Still having the other 2nd to address  the other position.  The big thing is  having Brady on the roster too as a swing tackle.  Think we have spent some time with the Texas tackle  too.

Yeah no one is trading up unless it’s into the top 3.

As we get closer to the draft I have this feeling we end up with Graham, Warren, or the top OT available if we stay at 8. 

Listening to Shechter, I'm thinking that Graham may become a real possibility.

    • My biggest fear with Bryce Young is that he will always do just enough to stick around. He shows flashes and then drops a turd so the hopium is always there. Like his career highlight reel if you cut it up to some hype music and did a YouTube video would actually be quite good. His great plays really, really look good. But after that video you look at his yearly averages for completion percentage, yardage, touchdowns, and virtually every other metric and it is meh as fug. Like you know Bryce is gonna be 13/23 for 157 yards a touchdown and probably a pick.  I will 100% give him his flowers for his athleticism and ability to scramble outside the pocket. I haven’t seen the mythical “super processing ability” he was touted for per se, but he has shown flashes of absolutely elite awareness when it comes to scrambling. The little basketball move he does to shake defensive linemen has almost become a signature move. It’s hard to explain but you know it when you see it he stops on a dime and pivots like he is gonna hit a step back jumper and it has gotten him out of a lot of trouble.  I sincerely, truly, as a vocal Bryce HATER, hope that since we are obviously running with him next year the coaching staff actually tailors plays around his strengths. He needs to be in a pure spread IMO. His size is much less of a hindrance when he can play QB in open space. I feel like most of his highlight reel is from scrambles and play action/bootlegs.
