Bequette said that he is ready to play whatever position he is asked. “I feel very comfortable at both [end and linebacker],’’ he said. “I guess that’s the stock answer, but it’s true. I played the 4-3 end mostly in college, but I also stood up a little at outside linebacker at the Senior Bowl and the Combine. The more I did it, the more it grew on me. I can’t wait to see what the coaches have in store for me.’’

Mock drafts are pick-by-pick guesses of which team will select which player in April’s draft. They are composed by columnists, experts, obsessed amateurs, compulsive listmakers, interns and precocious toddlers, and all are of exactly the same level of accuracy. Some mock drafts prognosticate only the first round, but many now extend through all seven rounds, which is a little like trying to predict the weather on April 7, 2019.

Reiss/ESPN Boston: Bill Belichick crafts a new draft tune
Reiss/ESPN Boston: Bill Belichick crafts a new draft tune
As we tweeted yesterday, “Nickel is the new base”.
In the past, more focus was placed on the base 3-4 defense. Belichick has almost always had a stout 3-4, with powerful, hold-the-fort linemen in the 300-pound range whose primary job was to build a wall at the line of scrimmage. Bigger, physical linebackers played behind them.
It wasn’t the fastest defense, but it had size, played physically, and was fundamentally sound in its run fits and assignments.
This defense still exists; it’s just that we’re seeing less and less of it. And this is where Belichick has come around to a new way of thinking on what is needed in New England.
