Here’s some quick linkage to everything we wrote yesterday about the four new Patriots:
Grading all four of the Pats picks in one place.
How Jamie Collins fits into the Pats.
How Aaron Dobson fits into the Pats.
How Logan Ryan fits into the Pats.
How Duron Harmon fits into the Pats.
Some other overall thoughts…
I’m excited to see how they use Jamie Collins. The fact that they spent their first pick on him tells me a lot. I didn’t think defensive end was a huge need, but it seems like the desire to get more athletic trumps everything.
The fact is that the guy is an athletic freak, and I’m sure BB will find a way to maximize his talents.
WIth Ryan and Harmon joining the secondary I say just throw them all in the mix and see who emerges from training camp healthy and playing well. Ras-I Dowling better have himself a camp.
I don’t know what exactly they saw in Harmon (no one does), but it will be interesting to see where he starts out. Clearly BB values the strong safety position a lot given where offenses are headed.
Hoping they grab another receiver or two today.
