    WR Stephen Hill from Georgia Tech will be drafted before Perry and Smith at 27 if still available. Look at the ages of the wide receivers for the patriots. They are all past 32 years of age. No one thinks last years draft, they took two running backs. Wide receiver is there greatest need and edge rusher. Hill, Gronk, and Hernandez. Better known as HGH is the future for the Pats!

    DE/OLB, Safety, CBs are the biggest needs before a WR. Pats will be one of the top three offenses in the NFL in the 2012 season. Using an early round pick to get a WR would not be a smart move to help improve a 31st ranked defense. DEFENSE FIRST.
