stag with the pick...
Now that Tebow is off the board, I really didn't know whom to pick for the Patriots.
The good news is, if I get this pick wrong, I have two more chances in the 2nd round.
As we mentioned before, the New England team needs are WR, pass rushing DE/OLB, 3-4 DE, RB, TE.
Getting Odrick in the first now allows Billy B to focus on skill players with the 3 second round picks.
Improving the pass rush is a huge priority for the Pats this year, and of course the "Patriot Way" takes a lot of pride in building the front 7, and they've been trying to rebuild the linebacking corps.
While my draft pick "t'aint" Junior Seau, he does have a chance to develop into someone just as feared..
With the 44th pick in the draft, the New England Patriots select.....
Nawa'akoa Lisiate Foti Analeseanoa Misi (pronounced ko-a mee-see), OLB Utah
"He is a pick-your-poison type of athlete who is powerful enough to take on and shed a blocker on the spot and fast enough to run around you and chase down his victim. Put that together with excellent instincts, a high-rev motor and team-leader type personality, and this prospect should fit well on somebody's roster "
