    Mitchell,McConkey and Coleman-the BPA thread

    Word. I think that I like Paul the best. Honestly don't have an issue with Suamataia, Paul, Amegadjie, at 34. I think that's too high for Rosengarten and Fisher (love those guys too though). Even like the Pitt kid lower as a developmental guy. Good tackle talk yay.

    R1/3: Drake Maye QB UNC

    Woot. I'm not sure that they have to make that call today or even in August. See how Maye looks. See how the OL comes together, what the receiver group looks like. Watch him through practice both in preseason and as the season progresses. When the time is right, put him in. Whether that's...

    R1/3: Drake Maye QB UNC

    Yeah data doesn't support what you're saying really. Just looking at the top 6 QBs already taken and using the Drafttek rankings in Google (not perfect but a convenient list form), a proxy for both "good team" and "good weapons" is how many teammates are projected to get drafted in the top...

    Mitchell,McConkey and Coleman-the BPA thread

    Word. There will be real Xs at the top of the third and even some college Xs/pro Zs that can get deep too. Hell, even a truly dynamic slot would improve this offense materially, though I'm biased towards getting a guy who can stretch the field and improve the opportunities for the flotsam we...

    R1/3: Drake Maye QB UNC

    Agree with your conclusion, but don't forget that the example that you posted also includes a Bruins fan corollary: when the team loses, it's generally the goalie's fault. Having watched that team religiously until my early/mid 30s, it seems that folks here (maybe elsewhere) will find a way to...

    Mitchell,McConkey and Coleman-the BPA thread

    I think that Roman and Franklin aren't getting enough love here. Sure, we'd love our WR prospects to run 4.3 @ 6'3" 225, but those guys don't go #50, they go #5. Both of these guys are super fast, run plenty of routes, have great hands, and are twitchy AF. We need that. IMO there are still a...

    R1/3: Drake Maye QB UNC

    It didn't hold BFB back much when the Boston sports intelligentsia trashed his pick of Richard Seymour over David Terrell (wasn't just Borges, Eddie Andelman almost had a stroke on air for a week). Pundits gonna pundit. It has no connection to reality, only ratings.

    Mitchell,McConkey and Coleman-the BPA thread

    Yes. I'd have to call my doctor in 4 hours if it works out this way. Honestly, if it ends up Sumataia or Paul and Roman's gone, I'd be fine with someone in the 3rd not quite at Roman's level too like Corley or even Thrash.

    Mitchell,McConkey and Coleman-the BPA thread

    Mr. Boring here: Paul, Kingsley, Kiran, Fisher, Rosengarten. My choice is Paul. Would be fine with some kind of trade back up into the second to grab a WR or trading down within the 2nd from 34 to accumulate picks. Need tackle though edit: just saw this. Agree completely. Can still...

    2024 NFL Draft NO SPOILERS MAYE DAY NO SPOILERS

    Not sure whether Penix or Nabers are stranger picks for their teams, and I like both players. They should test the CO detectors in Atlanta's draft room.

    What do you want Pats to do with #3?

    If I'm Maye, I want people watching my ass as much as someone who will get open. If there's a legit tackle and a guy like Corley, that's something to work with.

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department,

    Complete fabrication is a possibility. Eyeballs stave off unemployment.

    One Draft Hot-Take

    Pats trade back into the first round by giving up future picks and not only get the QBOTF but also bookend starting tackles.

    Chase Meidroth

    Been a fan of this kid for a while. Some of the older or underhyped guys who can't stop being productive are super fun to watch. Glad to see him hitting the ground running again this year.

    2024 Playoffs Western Conference First Round: (4) LA Clippers vs (5) Dallas Mavericks

    We are aligned. I give Luka shit because I think that dropping a couple of percent of body fat and expending some non-zero effort on defense would elevate his prospects of winning basketball games and can't fathom why someone wouldn't want to do that. Look at Lebron's physique at his age...

    Bello to IL with lat tightness

    I had "73 wins or less" in the pre-season poll, and I'm starting to think that I went too high.

    2024 Playoffs Western Conference First Round: (4) LA Clippers vs (5) Dallas Mavericks

    Yeah he's not going to be able to guard any of those guys. Good defending PGs struggle defending those guys credibly. I just mean if he is serious about maintaining an effort level at that end like he did in this game, to me he suddenly becomes a real problem. A guy who can make offense like...

    2024 Playoffs Western Conference First Round: (4) LA Clippers vs (5) Dallas Mavericks

    Yeah a Luka who plays even net neutral defense is in the conversation for best player on earth. Maybe that guy is the conversation.

    What do you want Pats to do with #3?

    Regarding runs, I'm inclined to go with the flow on this as well, rather than trading up. It would be awesome to check all of the boxes in rounds 1-3, but the team has so many holes on offense that whatever guy we get at 103 is probably going to play. If there's a run on either WR or OT, then...

    What do you want Pats to do with #3?

    Yup and yup. If we stay at 3 and draft the QBOTF, and there's a huge run on OTs before 34, maybe all that's left is developmental guys. That would suck but is possible. I'm going to continue to wishcast that the demand on OT and WR in deep drafts for both is somewhat constant and that we're...
