How about Zach Hurd from UConn ?

How about Mayo’s brother?

I’m glad Maehl is up there but what about Dane Sanzenbacher (sp?). I can see how Dane went undrafted but how did Alex Wujciak go undrafted. I mean, he had over 100 tackles in three straight seasons at Maryland, what more does this guy gotta do to get some love?! He is a frecking boss! I was blown away by some of those no name LBs who got drafted over this guy….. Who the hell is Jonas Mouton, like really?!??!

If you would have asked me before draft would you take”in no particular order” Mallett,Solder Dowling,Vereen,Ridley and Cannon also a #1 and #2 next yearIwould say thats awesome.Grade A+ basically other teams can’t believe how good Pats did.The rich get richer.For Herzlich he should go to Buffalo they could really use a linebacker and they had a solid draft.Herzlich will find a niche in NFL somewhere and given the chance he’ll do real well.

Draft thoughts while doing yardwork today…

I think I figured out why BB doesn’t want to pick a prototypical “pass-rusher”…

They are hard to find…look at the hit vs bust rate-around 10%-pretty bad

Even if you find one, you probably spent a really high pick

If you find one, you will have to pay them huge money (see Julius Peppers)

If you find one, the instant they become a FA, they will demand huge money or will be stolen by another team (Julius Peppers)…what do you think Clay Matthews would get as a free agent??? Tom Brady money, that’s what.

Most of all…a smart offensive coach/scheme can neutralize the impact of the stud pass-rushing outside linebacker. Notice that Rex Ryan didn’t go for an OLB in the draft either. He and BB have figured out that if they have big, quick tackles, and TE’s…plus, a wealth of good defensive backs, they can accomplish the same results. Remember that the Pats played Chicago and Green Bay last year…Peppers and Matthews had 1 sack between them. Peppers is making 14M per year and Matthews will make that much in free agency…and both were taken with #1 picks…alot of capital expended for 1 sack in 2 games

Thats why they chose Solder over Castonzo…Solder is bigger and faster

That’s why they took Ras-I Dowling (bigger CB)…so they can have up to 5 capable cover guys to cover the 5-wide sets loaded with 6-3 to 6-5 receivers
McCourty/Bodden/Arrington/Butler/Wilhite/Dowling and cover the inevitable injuries

Terrible draft. I give it a D+. The Patriots have not a playoff game since 2008 primarily because they don’t have a pass rush to put pressure on the QB or a fast WR who can catch the ball. You can have the best QB in the planet, but that doesn’t do much for you if the opposing team can march up and down the field and control the clock. The Jets also exposed the Patriots offense in the playoffs by flooding the middle of the field and playing the outside WRs man-to-man knowing that they couldn’t be beat deep.

I also don’t understand why they drafted two RBs when they already have the Law Firm and Woodhead. I could see maybe drafting one RB, then moving to either a top 7 defender or OL.

I heard the same thing at this time last year patpatriot2011 and how did that work out??? I have no problem with the Patriot’s brass selecting who they select based on the past success. Yes, there have been some clunkers mixed in, but that happens everywhere. There are so many other factors that come into play: the system Belichick uses, free agents, undrafted free agents, injured players coming back, salary considerations when compiling a deep roster etc.. Finally, for those who cry the Patriots haven’t won a playoff game in four years, I say look at the entire body of work and the win loss record of this team since Belichick has taken over. The Pats are in the hunt for the Super Bowl year after year. I lived through 70′s, 80′s and 90′s and appreciate this organization.

Mark Herzlich is rated as the 8th highest player for this years draft that did not get drafted. I am sure he will find a NFL team.Actually there are alot of good players left alot of underclassman came out this year.

Jeff Maehl will be the best undrafted player from this class. He will find a home and bring the noise when called upon.

patriot 2011 you make too much sense,

re “The Patriots have not a playoff game since 2008 primarily because they don’t have a pass rush to put pressure on the QB or a fast WR who can catch the ball. You can have the best QB in the planet, but that doesn’t do much for you if the opposing team can march up and down the field and control the clock. The Jets also exposed the Patriots offense in the playoffs by flooding the middle of the field and playing the outside WRs man-to-man knowing that they couldn’t be beat deep. ”

as for the grade, its too early in my mind to give them a very bad grade or a very good one till at least the playoffs, if not longer, if these guys need longer to get on the field. i start with a solid c minus for not addressing de and olb near the top of their 9 picks, for many reaches- picks too early, and because every pick was pretty much a risky pick.

Most of the guys you mention are among the highest ranked UDFAs.
They will command a decent sized bonus. I doubt the Patriots will
enter the bidding. They will sign mostly unknowns strictly to fill
out their roster.

Scott Lutrus LB from UConn will be on his list ….

I had to respond to patpatriot2011 giving the patriots a d+ for this years draft. Everyone knows it takes two to three yeard to rate a draft. If you look at the pats track record the have hit more then missed on the draft and I don’t think there is any doubt that they have earned the benifit of our doubts……IN BILL WE TRUST !!
