Wednesday Morning Mock....3 Weeks Away. No-Trade Mock, which isn’t easy for me!
32. Jerry Tillery. DT. Notre Dame. If Tillery is here and Belichick is comfortable with his commitment, this is a pretty easy pick. He’s an outstanding talent, but his game is inconsistent and there have been questions about how much he loves the game. I think he needs to go to a strong locker room and a winning culture to really thrive. New England clearly offers that. Good fit.
56. JJ Arcega-Whiteside. WR. Stanford. I slept on this guy for a long time, and after watching quite a bit of him recently I’ve come to the conclusion that he will be a very good pro. He’s got great size/catch radius, but more importantly he can definitely make tough, contested catches. I know first hand because he made a handful of tough, beautiful, crucial catches against Wazzu last year that kept that game close a lot longer than it should have been. He’s not a burner, but he does get open quickly. He’s smart, tough, and I think NE would love to add his size now that Gronk is retired.
64. D’Andre Walker. Edge. Georgia. One of the quicker DEs in the country off the edge, Walker also has the strength to play the run. I think he’s a versatile player that can play standing up or in the pass rush role. Belichick went to the Georgia well early and often last year and I think he would jump at the chance to grab another Bulldog if Walker is on the board at this point.
73. Darnell Savage Jr. S. Maryland. I just love this guy’s game. He flies around the field and hits hard. I think he’s got the speed to cover the deep part of the field. DMC and Chung are obviously long in the tooth, and I think NE should look to add a talented young Safety in this class. Savage is a good one.
97. Tytus Howard. OT. Alabama St. I love Howard. Prototypical RT size at 6’5 322 and good feet to match. He’s a small school guy and will need a lot of technique coaching at the NFL level. Luckily NE has Coach Scar, the greatest O-Line guru I’ve ever seen. Cannon is still very good, but in typical Belichick fashion it wouldn’t surprise me if he planned for the future and took a guy like Howard to groom.
101. Josh Oliver. TE. San Jose St. This is probably longer than a lot of people want to wait for a TE, but Belichick won’t force the issue and take one early if the value isn’t right. Oliver would be an interesting fit. He’s a big, athletic pass catcher. He player at a small school, and quite frankly a pretty poor program, in San Jose St. He’s not much of a blocker at this point, but with that size and athleticism the talent is there to develop in that department. I think he could contribute quickly as a receiving option. He’s an upside player, which I’m good with from a Comp Pick.
134. Miles Boykin. WR. Notre Dame. A tantalizing blend of size and athleticism, Boykin slides deep into the 4th because his tape is simply not that great. For such a tremendous athlete, he didn’t seem to put it together consistently on the field during his time in South Bend. The tools are there and there are flashes, so Belichick may take a shot in him if he lasts this long. If this scenario were to unfold, Whiteside, Oliver, and now Boykin would add a ton of talent to NE’s receiving corps and hopefully get people to quit whining about our receivers for a while.
205. Wyatt Ray. Edge. Boston College. I’ve covered Ray before. I think he’s a great fit for NE. He’s disciplined on the Edge and a strong run stopper. He’s not a blur off the Edge, but he displays consistent effort. I think this class is very deep at DE, and Ray would be great value here. I could see him working his way into the defensive rotation quite quickly.
239. Jordan Miller. CB. UW. Miller is overshadowed by his first round teammate, Byron Murray, but I’ve seen the hated Huskies enough to know that Miller can more than hold his own in coverage. He’s a little light, at 6’1 186, but he’s got great upside in NE’s crowded Backfield. He’s a guy who would spend a season on the Practice Squad and in the weight room/film room in a perfect situation.
243. Dakota Allen. LB. Texas Tech. Allen is the type of undersized LB that has grown quite popular in the NFL. He’s only 6’1 230, but he has the speed to cover. That’s a skill that NE has lacked at times. I think he would have to make the team as a Special steamer, as is often the case with Belichick’s late picks, but he has the frame and speed to do that.
246. Brett Rypien. QB. Boise St. Some will say that Rypien will go much higher, but the problem is that he has quite a mix of good and bad tape, and playing in the Mountain West he’s tough to evaluate. 2 years ago Wazzu made him look so bad that he was benched during the game. I’ve also seen him look quite good on several occasions, but it was usually against Mountain West teams. I think he’s got good size and a good arm, so if he’s hanging around late in the draft he’s worth a gamble in camp.
252. Cole Tracy. K. LSU. As of today, it’s uncertain whether or not we will have Ghost kicking in NE next season. In the end, I think he will resign witj NE, but for now we’re in the market for a kicker.

In the spirit of the Steelers selecting Terrell Edmunds with pick #28 of the 2018 draft, what is your "Wow, didn't see that one coming" (essentially someone that generally isn't rated as a Rd 1 prospect) pick for NE at #32? You can list one name for offense and defense. I have my two names in mind, but want to see what others post...
Offense:
Defense:

You can list one name for offense and defense. I have my two names in mind, but want to see what others post... Offense: Defense: Edmunds was a projected 3rd rounder, do we have to stick with 3rd round or later? I was going to guess you are saying Hooker for the defense but even though he is never mocked there you could see it coming... Are we talking player we do not even see as a Pats fit or just one considered a fit but a big reach?

Offense: Defense: On Offense it would have to be a WR as they have not done that, someone like Miles Boykin. or a RB, because they just drafted one in the 1st last year. ...someone like Henderson or something On defense, hmmm A CB because they seem to have tons of them already, like Jamel Dean or Sean Bunting or maybe a smaller LB like Drue Tranquil or Blake Cashman I mean any other players high on my list as 2nd rounders really are not going to be wow surprises if they take them at 32, practically a 2nd round pick anyway

Haha, doesn't have to be 3rd round or later, just someone that isn't currently expected to go in Rd 1. Was gonna use Hooker, but I have someone else in mind for defense. It could be either or both, and use your best judgement in regards to fit.

I mean, if they're gonna use a Rd 1 pick on a WR, it'd prob be an athletic freak with size, and Boykin is that. Bunting is interesting as well, and he fits the physical profile. Man, Tranquill isn't talked about much, but he's about as tough a player as you'll find in this entire class... and he was a two-time captain that started at like 3 different positions in ND's scheme. I think he's at least a ST stud, but could be a good LB at the NFL level as well. Seems to have great football and personal character. And I just had to have he, Cashman and Barton on my board.

Offense: Defense: To answer my own question, I'd go with: Offense: Dawson Knox... great combo of size, athleticism and upside. Defense: Darnell Savage Jr... he's a fantastic athlete with a lot of experience and good tape... and I think he should be getting more love. Definitely fits their physical profile at the position, and has shades of both DMC and Meriweather, IMO.

Anxiously awaiting the 40 and 3C times for JJ Arcega-Whiteside... and I think we're due some good news, after the kick to the shaft that was Washington's Pro Day. haha

Offense: Defense: Offense:Dalton Risner (OT/C Kansas State) - I've seen him projected round 2 or 3 in many mocks.

Evan Lazar @ezlazar 34m34 minutes ago More Potential #Patriots target JJ Arcega-Whiteside ran a 4.49 at Stanford's Pro Day today, a very good time for him. He's off the board in the second round now, if not sooner.

I have Risner as a Rd 1 guy on my board and think he might be the most Patriots-esque player in the boards. Abrams is a guy that I remain torn on, due to the missed tackles... the rest is there. I agree that he could be a target, if they're confident that the tackling isn't an issue.

If he just ran 4.49... IDK why you'd (not you, him) mess with it?! haha
