They got some starters and some depth . We will seei give dallas a big fat F they needed defense and they drafted defense the problem i have with that philsophy is even if you hit on them picks what are going to do play 7 rookies on defense thats horriable and if you miss on them all your even more screwd ..
NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS
R1 (15): QB Mac Jones, Alabama
R2 (38): DI Christian Barmore, Alabama
R3 (96): EDGE Ronnie Perkins, Oklahoma
R4 (120): RB Rhamondre Stevenson, Oklahoma
R5 (177): LB Cameron McGrone, Michigan
R6 (188): CB Joshuah Bledsoe, Missouri
R6 (197): OT William Sherman, Colorado
R7 (242): WR Tre Nixon, UCF
Day 1: The narrative surrounding Mac Jones for the past few weeks was focused on whether he was worth not just the No. 3 overall pick, but the three first-round selections the 49ers invested in that draft slot. At No. 15 overall, it’s an entirely different conversation. Jones led the nation last season in overall PFF grade (95.8) and was the most accurate college quarterback in terms of adjusted completion rate (84.2%) PFF has seen. This is an outstanding pick.
Day 2: Christian Barmore is the best interior defender in this draft, and he should have been a first-round draft pick. He is the only consistently high-level pass rusher from the interior in this class, posting a 90.3 PFF pass-rushing grade against true passing sets last year. Barmore was the No. 12 overall player on the PFF Big Board.
Perkins burst onto the scene with a 90.5 PFF grade last season. The problem was that his stellar play came on only 262 snaps, and some of that was against the lowly Kansas Jayhawks. If that production is real, he is an excellent steal at this pick. He has all the physical traits that the NFL covets at the position, and the Patriots can work with him to find a role on their defense. He needs to work on his hand usage but has everything else one could ask for in an edge rusher.
Day 3: McGrone has legitimate sideline-to-sideline speed. His combination of range and reliable tackling makes him well-suited to shut down outside rushing attacks and screens. And at 20 years old, McGrone has room to grow and improve on some of the concerns surrounding his coverage ability.
Draft Grade: A+
I'll take it.. Couple that with the off season FA pick ups and that is a solid off season for BB and the Pats
Agreed. The AFCE could be a great division to watch this year, it won't be a cake walk for any teamI agree but your division is alot better too with Buffalo and Miami. Miami had a great draft too. I still think Buffalo and Miami fight it out for the division.
Yeah I don't agree at all. But we will see.AFCE comes down to miami and buffalo. Free agent spending sprees never work out, ever.
Take it from the fans of a team that knows a thing or two about them.
Yep.Kiper gave us a B b/c we didnt get Fields. Then says he likes our picks. lol. Would you guys give up what the Bears gave up for Fields? 1,4, and 5?
Yeah I don't agree at all. But we will see.
Well why would I? Just because you want me to? Your post made no sense and you have nothing to back it.Of course you dont agree. We’ll see indeed.
