I think New England really cocked up their draft. Trading down is, for the most part, overrated unless you are getting 1sts or 2nds at some point, or a third that year. The Patriots have far fewer holes than draft picks and a lack of impact players on their defense, and when it came time for their selection, I think they took the 5th or 6th best CB in the draft.
I think that Belichick has become so used to trading down that he's oblivious to the value that is staring him right in the face.

Yeah I didn't agree with the Best pick either. Although I do like him as a player, but I think they should of went OT.
