Honestly don't know what Pats pick #'s are, but if Wright is really still there I grab him. Assuming the 2&3 are close to top of rounds I'd be tempted if someone I really love isn't sitting there.

If they offer 31 and 62, I take it. They already have #27 from the Saints.

We need players, and depth. We still can get fill holes and the more picks, the better chance we hit on guys who can make a difference.

If you re-read the the OP, the picks are a low 2nd and a low 3rd, so that would mean the Texans would not pick in the first, have two picks in the low second, one pick in the high third (thanks to the Ryans trade), one pick in the low third and two picks in the fourth (one due to the Ryans trade).

The idea being that no need is so glaring that we need to spend a first-rounder on it but we would have two picks each in the second, third and fourth where we can build a lot of depth without spending a lot of money. Then we'd have solo picks in the last three rounds to get things like a FB, PK and OL depth that ought to still be around.

I wanted to give the "trade down" crowd something to latch onto but with an offer that was intentionally not a great trade so they might consider whether it was really worth trading down so far.

If we'd lost Myers Konz would get strong consideration, but not now

Freener is on the roster...his name is James

Don't see DT or SS as a huge need...would be stunned

OLB certainly possible I just don't know much about Perry

End of day I take wr/olb or better trade...something taking us no further than 10th inn the second plus a third.

I took other, Stephen Hill would be my choice.

I selected Fleener, but I'd probably be happy with Wright or Cox too.

I prefer Curry to Perry at 26.

I selected Fleener for several reasons:

Dreesen is gone, gotta fill that void, need depth at the TE, why not take the top prospect, Kubiak loves his TE's, Talent drop off is significant after Him, size and speed are well above average for TE, large throwing radius for our not so accurate QB's.

I would have too, but I feel the big four of Blackman, Floyd, Hill and Wright will be gone. TE Coby Fleener is expected to go late first-early second, which would fill a pass catching need, fall within our slotting, and replace Dreeson at the same time. He stands 6-6, 247 and ran a 4.54 at his pro day. I think it would be a nobrainer for us.

Just don't see it unless they plan to use him as a wideout. We still have two +TE's on the roster and Graham has looked good in very limited time. It's more likely we pick up a FB late and shift Casey back to TE for 2 TE sets and sometimes rotate back to FB. I see his snaps going way up this year. Most likely we look for a blocking TE cheap.

You miss the point. At 6-6, 247, Fleener ran a 4.54 at his pro day. He could probably play some wideout for us while he bulks up for the TE position. And what a redzone threat!
