I am very concerned when I read this, "Kraft wanted to reassert control..." Uh-oh. I wonder if we can see the disastrous results of Kraft's meddling already, hmmm. Remember the Old Days after Parcells left and gave the Patriots a first round pick for Curtis Martin? When asked if this...

Whoa, whoa there. He is a sourpuss to the football press because he has no respect for them, and he did not want to give them any words that could possibly be endlessly analyzed and picked apart and criticized and quoted-out-of-context by idiots such as Felger and Jones (although I am liking...

Keon Coleman looks like the new N'Keal Harry....but I have made this comparison before and been soooo wrong so take this with a grain of salt.

Wow, Legette looks really good. He is all rocked up, but he has amazing separation speed in the field. McConkey has good numbers so either of these guys would be great in a Patriot uniform

If you think you have digestive problems, imagine what Wolf is going through. A muff at #3, the next Ryan Leaf for instance, would sink the Patriots and he would lose his job. It would be safer to trade down, but then Wolf would have digestive problems worrying if someone picks JJ or Daniels...

I watched some Rome Odunze highlights, and I have to wonder if he is overrated. He seemed to not get separation on deep throws and had to push off to make the grab. That will not work in the NFL. I would not blow a high pick on this guy when there are so many better WRs with real separation...

I watched some highlights and wow! He is elusive and seemingly cannot be covered. He would be a great compliment to Pop. Too bad his name is reminds me of Anaïs Nin

I have not looked as deeply as I have in previous years, but I like what I saw from Xavier Worthy, WR, Texas. Great explosion, but a bit of a stick figure. He and Pop Douglas would be quite the shifty pair. I also like what I have seen from JJ McCarthy and I like his attitude.

Note: In the interest of full disclosure, I have to confess that my obsession with trading down is for this selfish reason: If the Patriots trade down, the first couple of rounds of the draft and training camp will be way more interesting/exciting. If they don't trade down, we end up with a...

Her parents must be so proud of her! But yes, this could be a godsend if the Patriots could get out of his contract. It leaves another hole (albeit a tiny hole) in the already lame WR corps. Yet another reason to trade down and get more picks.

I agree! There is a big dropoff in talent after round 2, so the Patriots need to accumulate picks here. It makes sense to trade back and collect blue chips to fill the holes in the WR and OL corps. Drafting a big name QB at 3 could be a disaster if he has no one to throw to and is running...

Ah, yes, the Deebo disaster. The whiff that caused the departure of Brady and the eventual firing of BB. The consensus is that the Deebo disaster was the fault of BB, but now I have to wonder if Kraft was the guy who fell in love with N'Keal Harry (because of his interviewing skills?). Yes, I...

Troy Brown should be in charge of scouting college WRs. He sort of appears to be the one who found Pop Douglas. Might he be The One Freaking guy on the Patriots scouting staff that understands WRs? But there is a possibly apocryphal (whatever that means) story of a scout that advocated for...

Granted he made a lot of GOAT level GM moves in The Old Days. Not just draft picks, but FA signings like Moss, Dillon, etc. However he eventually lost his fastball as far as GM moves, at least on offense. As far as Pop Douglas, he was an afterthought, late in the 6th. He should have gone...

Brady demonstrated that he only wants to play for a team with an outstanding WR corps. That is why he left the Patriots. So far in this pathetic offseason, the Patriots have not done anything to fix this issue. A sure way for a QB to get killed in the NFL is to play with WRs who cannot get...

No, the worst case is much worse than that. The worst case is that they waste the #3 pick on the next Ryan Leaf/Jamarcus Russell and then miss out on some blue chip WRs and OLs. As it stands now, the Patriots are worse than the 4-win team from last year. If they muff the draft, especially...

The draft is already blown thanks to a pathetic FA period. By failing to secure a decent, starting caliber QB on the FA market the Patriots now almost have to gamble on QB at #3. By failing to secure some decent WRs and OLs, the Patriots have to somehow get some bluechip WRs and OLs in the draft...

One of the most horrifying things I saw in the old days was when BB put Lawrence Taylor on kickoff coverage. After the play, they would have to cart guys off the field. BB still talks about what a terror LT was on kickoffs

Nope, and I am proud of it. I am old goat now but have the maturity level of a twelve year old: fireworks, fishing, biking, camping, pranks, more fishing, more fireworks, and the old Playboys in the tree house.

Ha, exactly! After Mayo gets fired and Bob Kraft is put out to pasture, I would like to see BB hired back and get those 15 wins. I definitely don't want to see Mayo get fired, but unless there is a draft day miracle, the Patriots are doomed next season and Mayo will be the fall guy. Poor...
