Ellis Hobbs, Asanti Samuel, and Brandon Merriweather

**FRCDFED** · 12-29-2007, 10:24 PM

Three quality starting DB's drafting by the Patriots in the last few years yet we can't draft even one

What the fuck has Meriweather ever done?

Merriweather is a solid player, although he is expected to be as I believe he was a 1st rounder.

He is just playing behind better talent at the moment.

Hobbs and Samuel are both very athletic playmakers!

He rarely sees the field. Complaining about us not drafting someone like him is silly.

Don't confuse "complaining" with just stating facts. They have playmakers, we don't. It really is that simple.

It is simple and I'm not disagreeing with your overall point. Just that Meriweather doesn't belong in the conversation.

Nothing yet, but he's a rookie for chrissakes.

Yes, so there's no reason for us to be complaining about not having taken a rookie safety like Meriweather who's done absolutely nothing in the league.

Except for the fact that he would be starting in Kansas City.

What are you talking about? Herm can develop any young CB from the draft just look what he did with Marcus Maxey.

Don't pay attention to what the Pats do. Herm and Carl have it all figured out. Here is how they plan to build a championship team.

1) Give the tailback a cap busting contract.
2) Hire incompetent friends to manage the player evaluation department.
3) Sign some 30 year old Tackles that were never all that good so your QBs can get hammered every game.
4) Get rid of one of the best offensive coordinators in the NFL and hope the line coach can magicaly take his place.
5) Don't resign your all-pro fullback and then announce to the entire NFL that you plan to run the ball all day.
6) Squander your 5th round pick on a kicker so you can cut him after three games.

New England is to be pittied. They scored 38 points against the Giants. Don't they realize that you only do that in Arena football? 21 points is a lot! They should have saved some of those points for later.

And the Pats are likely going to end up with James Lauranitis in the draft. It really isn't fair.
