the Pats are strange drafters, they continuously trade back, but at what point? They had two first rounders this year, and get two next year? At some point you have to draft football players, it seems to me like they don't like anyone

Also they desperately needed a pass-rusher, maybe they are looking to trade or get one through free agency- maybe why they stockpiled picks

More than one analyst has speculated that Belichick's ego has gotten to the point that he believes he could take a high school team to the Super Bowl.

As time passes, the actual truth might turn out to be that Belichick was getting too much credit and Scott Pioli not nearly enough.

Scot, I have said the same thing recently.

However I do think that the Mallett pick up was perfect for the Colts/Pats/GB/SD because there would be no calls for him to start there and he could learn how to be a pro.

I see a Matt Schaub type thing going on with Mallett.

A Pats fan I talked to on Saturday was not happy with their draft. He criticizes Belichick for stockpiling picks only to draft "scrubs" as he put it.

they really don't get the criticism other teams would get if they pulled the same poo

the only reason they get away with it is because people rarely look bad in their system

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By woahfraze · Posted

      Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.

      Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.

      Look at his snap counts, your telling me that his entire college and pro football career every coach he has had has misused him? No offense but I don’t think you understand the role of a slot corner. Mike Jackson is the literal definition of an outside zone corner, he would be totally inept as a slot corner. Ala why he has been an outside corner his entire career.
