DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION OFFICIAL 2023 Patriots Draft Day Discussion: Round 1

[Bill Lee]

Why is Levis dropping so far.

Because he's not good?

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

I don’t think i read a mock draft that had gonzalez going any lower than 7 or 8. Still in shock we went with the obvious choice!

 

[festy1986]

Because the Jets weren't taking a CB. They knew who the Steelers were taking, which meant a top CB would be there at 17. Banks, Porter and Forbes IF Washington took Gonzo.

And what do you do if the Jets trade their pick?

C'mon your guy is there, you take them.

If anything this is about money.

 

[Bill Lee]

JSN to Seahawks!

 

[StrawHatPatriot]

How do yall feel about Christian gonzalez

 

[BadMoFo]

Can't believe two running backs went before the first receiver.

 

[203Pat]

Weird pick for Seattle. I wonder if Lockett will be on the move.

 

[Joker]

Bill screwed the green rats then snagged a corner slated to go top 10...and picked up an extra 4th....what's the problem?

 

[Sciz]

Gibbs and Campbell were my two “looks like a reach but could kinda make sense” guys at 14. The Lions took both of them in the 1st.

 

[DOGWARZ]

If Zay falls to the 2nd i can see the pats trading their 2nd and 2 4ths to move to the top of the 2nd and taking him.

 

[TheBeers]

Weird pick for Seattle. I wonder if Lockett will be on the move.

I would take Lockett in a heartbeat

 

[denverpatsfan]

Who likes this pick? They need an OT. Wtf?

 

[jays52]

Flowers is going to get his name called soon. Wouldn't surprise me to see them move up to get him. He is the best receiver in the draft IMO.

 

[patsinthesnow]

The pats were a CB1 away from having arguably the best defense in the NFL. They had to get out of zone coverage & return to a cover 1 man defense.

Judon, Uche, Barmore, Wise with Gonzalez, Jones x3, Dugger, Phillips & Mills may be their best pass rush & coverage combo of the BB era. A homerun pick with the assets to move up later.

 

[WaterfallJumper]

@captain stone you're off the hook on Brian branch in round 1.

Watch us trade back in.

 

[Bill Lee]

Something seems off with that picture...

 

[long distance]

I would take Lockett in a heartbeat

yeah . but would you take Heartbeat in a lockett?

 

[203Pat]

Lol the Lions going with a RB and an ILB in round 1. Campbell thinks it's 1993 and not 2023.

 

[upstater1]

Then why do the Patriots get credit for trading back?

No way they know he's gonna be there.

They might have wanted Forbes instead
