A good friend of mine used to write draft articles for a UK based draft site and would fly over to the US every year for the senior bowl and combine. He stopped doing it when he became a dad but built up a decent network of contacts in the NFL scouting community. One draft about 6-7 years ago he’s putting together his final mock and he calls a good friend of his who’s a Patriots scout at the time. He goes through a list of about 20 guys trying to get some intel. The scout replies, verbatim, the exact same response to each guy: ”We think that guy is a good player. The Patriots are interested in all good players”. That story always makes me laugh because I can imagine Belichick himself saying almost exactly that whenever anyone tried to pry information out of him. Sounds like a guy who is pure NE Patriots Or one who knows that maybe, just maybe his phone is bugged because Belichick is that crazy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teens would surprise me Honestly, Minnesota is the lynchpin of the entire draft. IF they move up to grab their QB, do Denver or Las Vegas feel significant amount of pressure to move up the board to grab QB5? Or do they prefer a more modest trade-up that probably doesn't cost a lot with say Atlanta or Chicago if they want to ensure they get their QB? If Minnesota opts against moving up, do they feel pressure moving up knowing that Minnesota is almost assuredly going to take Penix at 11? I still think Las Vegas is the most likely to take Penix. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's being reported by so many reputable people for weeks now that Daniels is going 2nd to Washington. Maybe the league is not as high on Maye as a lot of internet draft analysts are.

So many reputable people said for weeks that the niners were going with Mac Jones at 3. I also never indicated that I thought the pick was maye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is trading up into the top 10 for Penix. I don’t even think he’s really in the conversation for those teams at 11-12-13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying a team is going to move up like 10+ spots for him, but a move up the board like 3 or 4 spots doesn't seem unreasonable.

McCarthy would be the trey Lance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
