Patriots/NFL 2024 Regular Season: Part II - If the NFL season ended today, the Patriots would have the No. 2 pick in the draft

Bill Belichick and Tom Brady BOTH benefited from an almost perfect storm of events that began in 2001. By the way, Bill Belichick also benefited from having Lawrence Taylor on the Giants when he was the DC there. Let’s not forget that, either.

Good to see Craig James on the sideline for this SMU-Clemson game.

Patriots legend miss him on ESPN.

Jacksonville's win over Tennessee pushes the Patriots up to the #3 pick in the draft.

Not sure why Giants fans upset

 

[Troublesome 85]

Could still trade #3 if they still have it to a QB needy and nervous team for a lower 1st this year an extra second and a 1st next year

No one has ever done more to improve the Patriots' draft position.

Chad Ryland comes close

If you are rooting for draft picks it means the organization is bad.

There is no guarantee that it makes you better. It just encourages a losing culture

I keep saying this, but the pick is WORTHLESS unless the Patriots fix their personnel and scouting departments.

A bust with that third pick would set them way back. They’re too thin on talent to absorb a draft blunder in the first round.

Really hard to explain how stupid the Bills head coach is sometimes.

I don’t need to understand why. I’m just here to enjoy it.

Nice weekend.

If Leggette caught that ball for Carolina it would’ve been amazing

 

[BruinsFan37]

Nearly 1/3 of teams are at or within one game of a 3-10 record. That's just awful.

That was an incredible football game.

Nearly 1/3 of teams are at or within one game of a 3-10 record. That's just awful.

Half of the AFC North, South, and East are in that group…That’s hard to do. The AFC, in general, has been garbage this season.

Nice weekend.

Whom, pray tell, do you think the Patriots should target in this draft? Do you have a specific player in mind? If we’re gonna dive into draft talk, let’s dive in all the way.

I’ll start. I like Kelvin Banks from the Texas Longhorns.

Thoughts on Slingin' Sammy Darnold?

Assuming the Pats pick 3rd and Vegas and NYG are ahead of them, Hunter may fall into their lap, which would be fantastic.
Will Johnson ( CB) would also be a good fit, our CB's would be set for the next 5 years.
McMillan is the number 1 WR we really could use.
Mason Graham is a absolute stud as a DL, can stuff the run and pass rush as well.

It sure looks that way. Have to think Vegas & NYG both going QB. Where do you play Hunter? WR or CB? Highly unlikely he can play both positions in the NFL.

I’d consider trading back a few spots if someone is hot up for Hunter.

 

[McGarnagle]

I'm a little detached from the Pats this year but I still think the best play is to get a top three pick, find another team who will trade firsts/high seconds to jump up to get the QB or WR they want, get into the 5-7 range and take the best left tackle on the board.

I would pull an Elway/Eli before I let the Jets draft my son to play QB.

Deep down in the dark recesses of your psyche, you KNOW he's going to break your heart in the post-season.......

....same goes for the Bears.
