As a reminder, Bill currently has 3 picks but I would expect a few trades. As we start the day, here are the picks in hand:
Round 4 – No. 131 overall
Round 5 – No. 183 overall
Round 6 – None
Round 7 – No. 239 overall
Round 4 – No. 131 overall
Round 5 – No. 183 overall
Round 6 – None
Round 7 – No. 239 overall
Here's my list for 131, in no particular order:
CB Howard Wilson, HOU
DE Deatrich Wise, ARK
OT Roderick Johnson, FSU
OT Will Holden, Vandy
Before the O'Shaughnessy deal, had been thinking Leggett from Clemson (or maybe Butt or Hodges), but thinking TE is less likely - unless they consider Butt a full redshirt.
There are also a number of interior OL sliding, but not considering that a priority given composition of roster.

No way they take a kicker that high, maybe a 7th rd pick but more likely a UDFA.

Michigan TE Jake Butt has insurance policy and gets $10,000 every pick not picked, per @darrenrovell; has collected about $150,000 so far.

To be clear, wasn't serious.
Carl Lawson finally picked by CIN. Was it just his historical inability to stay on the field driving the slide?
Yeah, that's right. Maybe I should have just said that maybe a QB was a possibility
I know they just got another TE but at what point do you just roll the dice on Butt?
Brad Kaaya still out there. Got to watch him play a bunch. Mixed bag on the field but can see why he's probably going to get drafted.
Come on, haven't the Pats learned their lesson about drafting injured TE's?
The picks have been made TV is just way behind.
Pats pick was known at least 5 minutes ago.
I know, but does anyone care about someone in the space station "throwing it down" for the pick to be made?
Someone might but I sure as hell don't, I have game thread cred for being the first to complain about what they are doing.
I lost some of if for missing sarcasm in a later post, I'm treading water which is pretty good for me.
It would have been awkward if the Pats picked a long snapper there.
Holy shit this coverage is abhorrent. The first night is when everyone tunes in. Run the fluff then. Anyone still watching at this point is interested in the picks, video highlights of said picks, and some quick analysis thereof.
The kind of person they are tailoring this coverage for hasn't been watching since Thursday.

One of the NFLN guys: "I had him as a 7th-rounder or an UDFA, so he'll probably be a star for the Patriots."
Wise's dad was a DL for the BC Lions and has coached at the high school, college, and pro (arena) levels.
So team captain and son of a coach.
Reiss is either starting to get a knack for the Pats' draft strategy, or he had some good intel ...
He ID'd both Rivers and Wise as potential targets on 4/17:

Wise's NFL.com draft profile is...underwhelming: http://www.nfl.com/draft/2017/profiles/deatrich-wise?id=2558000

Another TE that I was watching, Sprinkle from Arkansas, to WAS at 154.
(Right after Jake Elliott, the top K on the board out of Memphis, goes to the Bengals at 153.)
Edit: apparently, I hadn't refreshed. You guys were all over it.
