His projected trade between the Bengals and Patriots is pretty realistic considering the Pats would like to move down and Sedrick Ellis is the man the Bengals are targeting, but I think Cincy could wait it out and he would fall to 9 (assuming he's there at 7.)

The weird part is the pick he has for the Pats. Brandon Albert at #9? I know Albert is a stud, but that's awfully high for an interior lineman.

Super Bowl memories of Brady getting sacked fuel the pick I guess



2019 DRAFT WISH LIST
1) DT Dexter Lawrence - Clemson
2) DE Jaylon Ferguson - Lousiana Tech
3) OG Chris Lindstrom - Boston College
4) CB Amani Oruwariye - Penn State
5) DE Shareef Miller - Penn State
7) C Sean Krepcz - Nevada
7) RB Wes Hills - Slippery Rock

Reporter: "Why did you fire Coach Gase?"
Ross: "Because he wants to win now"

ohhh.. but what great memories they are!!! :up:

I checked out this mock, and was a bit surprised to see gholston at #1 for us. I think thats the first time I've seen that in all these mock drafts that I've seen anyways. While I wouldn't object to it, it just caught me off guard a little bit.

Yeah im not sure NE doesnt covet a LB desperately considering the age of the current guys, but unfortunately for us NE is good at making "the right" moves so I guess we'll just wait and see.

Atleast one person agree's with me that the Long/Gholston race is closer than many may think. Should be an exciting month.

That also works for me. I wouldn't mind Gholston.

I agree. For the most part both kids can and will play the hybrid spot and gholston is a freak and can be a better athlete than long is. I wouldn't mind either

Gholston is someone I could live with. I have heard that Chris Long is slightly better in that he rarely ever takes any plays off, but you look at the body size and speed of Gholston and how he handled Jake Long in some big games and you have to think he will be right there with Chris Long, and probably better in some areas.
