Patriots Draft Flashback: Patrick Chung

The Pats clearly weren’t in love with too many guys in 2009, at least not enough to spend a first round pick on any of them. I remain a huge Patrick Chung fan, despite that lil’ mishap in the playoff game. He should have a huge season in 2011.

There’s a team in the draft that has a deal on the table – I’m guessing New England (surprise!) – with a team trying to come back into the first round. The deal will net the team dealing the first-rounder the following: a second-round pick in 2011 and a first-round pick in 2012. The deal, I hear, is contingent on the player the trade-up team wants still being there. Could it be Tennessee trading into the bottom of the first round, at 28, to get Jake Locker or Andy Dalton? Stay tuned.

New England, points out ESPNBoston’s Mike Reiss, has only five draft picks in 2012. (The Patriots own their first- through fifth-rounders; the six went to Philly last year as part of a deal for linebacker Tracy White, the seven to the Chiefs for safety Jarrad Page.) That makes deals for future picks eminently logical this year, bordering on certain. The Patriots could use, say, Mike Pouncey or Cameron Jordan with their 17th pick in the first round, or leverage that pick by moving down a few spots, then deal the 28th altogether.

If the Pats can get both a pick in the 35-50 range this year and a first rounder next year for their 28th pick it’s the no-brainer to end all no-brainers.

Holy Hoodie! Draft week is here!!

by

It has been exactly 99 days since the Patriots 2010 season came crashing down in flames and in that time we’ve thrown ourselves into the draft as much as possible. This will be our fourth offseason that we’ve blogged heavily about the draft and each year I’ve learned something new, yet I still feel like I will be shocked by a Patriots pick of a player that I haven’t even heard of. Oh well, that’s the fun of it.

Possibly the best thing about the draft being this week is the end of all the debate amongst us amateur draftniks as to what the Pats should do. It will also be nice to forget about 90% of the prospects we’ve been studying and talking about, and finally just focus on what the Pats have added.

We’ll be keeping our ears to the ground, because in the final few days before the draft you often get actual real information. Like in 2008 when Michael Holley broke that the Patriots would absolutely get Jerod Mayo just a couple days before they did. Not everything is disinformation as we get closer, but it’s important to remember that some of it definitely still is.

Also we’ve got some great podcast stuff in the works for this week, and we’re in the final stages of locking down some guests for our Saturday and Sunday shows that will blow the minds of Patriots nation. Sincerely. We’ll keep everyone posted as we finalize the details.

Until then enjoy the videos and draft flashbacks we’ll be posting all week. It’s the best week of the off-season and we intend to take full advantage. Because who knows when we’ll have any football news after the draft… UGH…
