That was one of the worst tapes I've seen for a potential "first round" pick.

Cocaine's a helluva drug

Soooooo, EJ?

I just don't see us drafting a QB we haven't set up a visit with. Hence, Peterman. As for Kelly going undrafted. I can see a 6th-undrafted. Couldn't do the combine. Only met with 3 teams. Off-field issues. At this points, he's a flyer pick. I can see the 6th only because he's a qb

He's a 6th rounder at best. Probably undrafted at this point

Didn't know he was sick like that. Those sketches were pure cold. Now Prince and Charlie can have that basketball rematch

Nothing wrong with it, just so long as you come home to bed with the Bills every night. After the Bills, I probably root hardest for any team playing the Pats. I hate them that much.

I'm a TT guy and believe we have more pressing needs with our first three picks. In no particular order, OT, S, WR, DB are more pressing needs. We don't have a 4th round pick, so it'll be 5th or worse if we don't make trades. However, I'm all about making trades and picking up extra picks. To me, I think the QB's are all hit or miss in this draft and we could see a lot of guys fall to the 3rd or 4th round. With that being said, who would you like to see us grab in the 4th (with a trade) or 5th round? I think there's a chance that Webb falls to the late 3rd, but I don't see us drafting a guy we didn't interview. Overall, I see Peterman out of Pitt in the 5th round to us.

Not buying it

The only defenses that seems to slow down the pats are with physical man coverage and front 4 pressure. Our defense is mainly going to be cover 3 with zone. It's a pressure based, let them beat you in spots kind of defense. Doesn't that fall right into the Patriots hands. They want the short, quick routes. They want to find space. They want to run free off the line. I know the Pats tear up pretty much all defenses, but I feel like we are just starting with a losing plan against a team that needs to be overcome to get us over the hump. Yes, we can adjust our defense in the moment and it's only one team. I get it. The sky isn't falling. This is just a conversation that I'm surprised hasn't been talked about much yet.

I think it all comes down to the QBs. If they don't go in the top 3, people will want to trade ahead of Cleveland and others to get their guy. I don't think any of them are worth a first round pick, but we will see.

You cracked the code. I'm convinced! Trade up for him

Got to love how rankings change with no games being played

This offseason has felt different from the Pats. Giving out big money to players, pulling off trades for high profile players. I'm wondering if Brady really has told the team that he plans to play for 2 more years, or something like that, so they are just abandoning their normal plan to make sure those last few years are championship runs. Could be crazy here, but something just feels different.

I feel like 7 is the harder over/under number. I will take the over

Match it. Do it

Medic!

Bubble teams come down to judgement and discretion. I believe the committee is not fans of Cuse with their infractions and comments about the tourney. Not a conspiracy guy, but don't bite the hand that feeds you

I'm going to throw up. No disrespect to the posters who ask why he's so bad but, did you watch him? He may have given up 8 sacks, but he also gave up so many pressures it was crazy. In prepping to do some of the game recaps, I would watch just him on plays and it's bad. I don't know why they are giving him this much money and why they are doing it so early. He could be replaced by almost anyone

We need to sign at least one vet in FA. Rookie WR have one of the bigger learning curves and rarely contribute the way you want in year one. I'm all for drafting someone in round 1/2. But we need another vet. I think we need to vets due to Sammy's injury history

With all this cap space we are freeing up, does it makes sense to get ahead of some of these contracts and eat the money now? I know we aren't done in FA by a long shot, but I don't see there being many big contracts out there to give. We could extend someone like Sammy and still get some quality B players

That's about the deal I was afraid he would get. Maybe a mil lower. Good for him. Always assumed this would be the outcome

3 years, 15 mil. We easily could have afforded that and should have done it. This was a great value and a need. Not thrilled

Wow. Did not see this coming. !@#$ Gilmore. I can't wait until Sammy torches him

When the guarantee is up, he will have had 4 years to prove he is the guy. That's more than we've given anyone in a while. I really think this is his "prove it" year. If he doesn't end the conversation about him as our long term starter, then he's our bridge next year for the new guy. I'm overall happy with how this worked out
