IS this the day we go after a QB (Steelers got a steak in Rudolph in Rd 3 FWIW)....
Gotta think a LB at some point very soon...
Gotta think a LB at some point very soon...
I don't see any way he goes undrafted. I think he's gone in the 4th or early 5th. Would love the Patriots to take him.If Hurst keeps falling I would love to see the Pats take him instead of risking him becoming a UDFA. NFL Network reported a lot of teams have him off their board but if he’s still around come the sixth round they should use one of their picks on him.
Wonder if they are thinking Manziel?Assuming Falk and Lauletta get picked elsewhere this weekend, do any of you gurus have thoughts on QBs the Pats could pick up as UDFAs? Guys like Woodside or Kyle Allen?
Chad Kanoff (Princeton) is another guy @mascho has mentioned. I could also see them going reclamation project here. Guys like Christian Hackenberg, Connor Cook, Nathan Peterman, C.J. Beathard, Cardale Jones, etc. could all become available based on other moves those teams have made. Did NE like any of them coming out?Assuming Falk and Lauletta get picked elsewhere this weekend, do any of you gurus have thoughts on QBs the Pats could pick up as UDFAs? Guys like Woodside or Kyle Allen?
I'd love either of these, though we've been burned on interior penetrators with heart problems before (remember Armond Armstead?). Hard to imagine a guy with Sweat's profile is still out there without some injury / off-field also.Josh Sweat is still available at DE.
Maurice Hurst was ranked by many as the #1 DT in the draft - how long will he slide with the heart condition? PFF gave him their highest rating ever for what it’s worth.
Woodside no, but I do like Kyle Allen, as a Matt Cassell, intelligent college backup type. UDFA only. Wouldn't even waste a 7th on him.Assuming Falk and Lauletta get picked elsewhere this weekend, do any of you gurus have thoughts on QBs the Pats could pick up as UDFAs?

That's a messy piece that goes in multiple directions. Basically the Pats have "leaked" their interest in Lauletta, yet Lauletta remains undrafted...but when they "leaked" their interest in Evans and Jackson [and Landry], Evans and Jackson [and Landry] got drafted? I don't follow the logic.I like Florio, a lot. For selfish fanboy reasons, I’m grateful he often has had our backs. But this may be the most preposterous thing he has written about them:
Our draft plans are being thwarted because the team is leaking all over the place:

I've been wrong a lot so far so when I say 10% it's probably a lock. So many really solid guys left I think that I hope they pass for now.What is the % of Lauletta getting picked? None of the teams ahead of NE (seem to) need a QB.

Reid is spoken for.Is this the place where BB takes a safety (i.e., Reid)? Is it really a Patriots draft without one?
Mayock says 2 teams cleared him to play.https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sbnation.com/platform/amp/2018/4/28/17294678/maurice-hurst-2018-nfl-draft-slide-heart-condition-medical-concern
At this point in the draft, I hope they take a shot.
