2025 Patriots Draft

[BigKen]

Rumor........"Patriots will be watching Edge Michael Williams GEO. at the Combine and may be looking at using the first pick on him.

Pronounced Mikel.

20 years old. 6'5" 268#. Extremely quick and has had multiple tackles for losses on RBs. Young enough for the training staff to put 15-20 lbs on his frame and turn him into a faster Aaron Donald inside of the DL.

Great player if they do.

BC has a history of having great OLs. BB had a history of completely ignoring them.
Hopefully, with Bill O'Brien being the HC at BC, Vrabel won't be so cavalier.

Karen Guregian: Might a BC pipeline be in the Patriots future?

Could Bill O'Brien's relationship with Mike Vrabel lead to Boston College becoming one of the Patriots go-to schools for draft talent?

What's not to love about Graham? Personally, I think the DT value is in the 2nd round for this draft. I don't however see a DT I would take before Graham.
Ezciruaku is undersized for NFL and might be a reach at #38
Wyatt Milium is a reach at #69
Will Alexander show speed at the combine? If he does he will rise.....
Lundt looks like Trapilo but I'd rather have Trapilo - who you'd have to get much earlier.

Just read an article where Trapilo has worked with Dante Scarneccia for the past two years to improve his footwork and improve his lockup without holding a defender. Scar says that he's ready to be any teams' starting Tackle. 50:50 that he could be picked late in the first round.

I read an article on Masslive.com about that as well.

Not sure if it was the same article.

Another Kid from BC is also working with Scar.

Reading else where...I came across an article about Carter and Graham being gone early and New England essentially looking at one of the two QB's with the #4 pick that they would be better off trading to Vegas for their 1st and 2nd.

Is that a fair price? #6 + #37 for #4? Seems like a no brainer to me...

Now if that were to happen, Ashton Jeanty and Ozzie Trapilo at #6 and #37 seems like a good deal to me.
What value at that point would Rhamondre Stevenson bring? anything? or keep him though training camp and see if he makes the cut over Harris?


Just hypothesizing on a scenario I read on another site.

So we would draft a QB am I misreading what you wrote?

What? No.
Trade #4 for #6 and #37.
With #6 take Jeanty.
With #37 take Trapilo.

Ditch Fumbles.

It was the essentially looking for part that threw me. I suspect Graham or Carter would be there but if not I would not want to take a RB at 6. I am not as sold on Jeanty as others. Would rather secure the lines first.

I also don't think you would get #6 and #38 more likely #6 and 68

 

[YankeeRebel]

I see it more like this if we can trade with LV

NE to LV #4
LV to NE #6 and #68

#6 Will Campbell OT LSU

#38 Grey Zabel IOL North Dakota State

# 68 TJ Sanders DT South Caroline

#69 Landon Jackson DE Arkansas

Now we can look at CB S RB

Kinda what I thought. #6 and #37 is too much for #4.


And...all depends on what they can do in FA.

Now if Vegas has a legit boner for Milton then maybe

 

[nefansince75]

What? No.
Trade #4 for #6 and #37.
With #6 take Jeanty.
With #37 take Trapilo.

Ditch Fumbles.

"Fumbles" needs it written into his contract that he earns veteran minimum plus a bonus tied exclusively to not fumbling. The bonus money should make him whole + 10%. Otherwise another team can gamble he'll cure it without any incentive to do so.

and how much they want the guy sitting at 4 who might not make it to 6.

#6 Will Campbell OT LSU

#38 Grey Zabel IOL North Dakota State

# 68 TJ Sanders DT South Caroline

#69 Landon Jackson DE Arkansas

Will Campbell's 32-7/8" arms are starting to cause him grief.

Armand Membou is the guy that he's being compared against because Membou has something like 34" or 35" arms and has great foot speed and immediate power to push to the second level . Membou's problem is that he's only 6'3".

would you rather have a Tackle with Guard Arms, or a Guard with Tackle arms?

 

[nefansince75]

would you rather have a Tackle with Guard Arms, or a Guard with Tackle arms?

Whenever my son asks me a question like that (though his are usually ridicules), I rephrase the question as "Would I rather stick an ice pick in my right eye, or stick an ice pick in my left eye"?

But to answer your question, of the two, I want the better player.
