2023 NFL Draft Official Game Thread (This is the thread WITH SPOILERS)

[Seels]

Pats get 17 and 120 for the 14.

what's the point

 

[Dave Stapleton]

Clearly Pats didn’t want the OT on the board

 

[mauf]

They better have gotten a kings ransom to have traded with a conference rival.

Can you realistically refuse to trade with half the league?

 

[Rico Guapo]

Calling the Steelers a "conference rival" is a bit of a stretch. The compensation will be interesting, though.

Outside of the AFC East there is no one I hate more in the AFC except maybe Denver...

 

[Ale Xander]

BIG BOARD:
Jones, Andre Jr., LB, Louisiana
Jones, Broderick, OL, Georgia
Jones, Cam, LB, Indiana
Jones, Charlie, WR, Purdue
Jones, Dawand, OL, tOSU
Jones, Jaylon, DB, TAMU
Jones, Nic, DB, Ball State
Jones, Tyreque, DB, Boise St.

Hahahahahaha

 

[Beomoose]

A fourth? Bill's slipping

 

[8slim]

Why?

Passing up impact guys for Reaches and volume later in the draft. Last year aside, hasn’t always worked well recently.

 

[shawnrbu]

Greeny says the Pats are sticking it to the Jets.

 

[JM3]

BB must be planning on going off the map if he's doing that for only 120.

 

[Marbleheader]

 

[Dave Stapleton]

Pats want Zay, JSN or Gonzales mark it

No offense, but I’m pretty glad Belichick doesn’t make his front office decisions based on which teams you hate.

 

[Arroyoyo]

YOU NEED WR#1 AND WR#1 IS RIGHT THERE AND YOU TRADE THE PICK FOR A FOURTH ROUNDER

 

[Ed Hillel]

I lucy footballed myself

 

[Kenny F'ing Powers]

For a 4th? That's it?

I guess it's market value, but...oof.

 

[NortheasternPJ]

A 4th

wtf

makes me want to throw up.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

I'd rather take UTEP's punter at 17 than 14. He should still be there.

 

[8slim]

All we got was a 4th. Oy.

 

[Ale Xander]

I fucking knew the 14th pick would be a Jones

 

[Cellar-Door]

Pretty close to chart value on that trade, short about 5 points.

 

[Dollar]

Fully prepared for a trade down based on 20+ years of watching Belichick drafts. Hope everyone else here is ready too... even though I know that might not be the case.

This guy gets it.

 

[Remagellan]

Pats get 17 and 120 for the 14.

Look whenever you can drop behind a division rival for an additional 4th round pick, you have to do it. (Fuckin' hell!)

 

[jsinger121]

Really hoping for the Patriots to bottom out this year. I’m pretty much done on Belichick. Trading down 4 spots should get more than just a lone 4th.

 

[ElcaballitoMVP]

A 4th seems a little light there. But if you didn't expect a trade back there, you don't know BB.

 

[Eastchop]

No talent and they get cute. Hate it.

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

What are people expecting someone to give up to go from 17 to 14?

 

[DJnVa]

Evan Lazar saying they'll be trading up tomorrow.

 

[jcd0805]

All we got was a 4th. Oy.

We went back 3 slots, not like we got pushed out of the first round

 

[bsj]

I believe the Pats want Bergeron at OT. I think they will package 46 and more to get back into the late first/early 2nd and take him as their 2nd pick.

 

[j44thor]

I can't believe Gonzalez has dropped this far biggest slide in the draft unless you believe the reddit smoke around Levis.

 

[DJnVa]

No talent and they get cute. Hate it.

But if they like 4 guys then moving 3 spots is fine.

 

[8slim]

Preparing myself for the worst.

 

[AlNipper49]

I’ll take Bill trading back then taking someone they would be available at 40…..like he’s been known to do

 

[E5 Yaz]

I'm wondering what these guys who are at home do with all the hats of the teams that don't draft them

 

[shawnrbu]

BB must be planning on going off the map if he's doing that for only 120.

Andre Carter II

 

[Kenny F'ing Powers]

So, what, 50% chance we trade back again? 75%?

 

[DJnVa]

I can't believe Gonzalez has dropped this far biggest slide in the draft unless you believe the reddit smoke around Levis.

What's the smoke?

 

[ElcaballitoMVP]

No talent and they get cute. Hate it.

What if they get the guy they wanted at 17? Should've taken him at 14 anyway?

 

[jsinger121]

What are people expecting someone to give up to go from 17 to 14?

A third and a 5th.

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

Let's take Gonzalez!!!

 

[ekim colorwaterpit]

Why are people mad. There are legit 5 guys that are hard to distinguish between and pick 120 could be schoonmaker or skeen or Wright. This is totally the right move

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

Pats may trade back from #17 also, LOL

 

[DJnVa]

what's the point

To trade up tomorrow.

 

[pappymojo]

We went back 3 slots, not like we got pushed out of the first round

yet

 

[8slim]

I'm wondering what these guys who are at home do with all the hats of the teams that don't draft them

My family just has a conversation about that too.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Who cares if they only got a fourth if they know they’ll get one of their guys?

 

[BillMuellerFanClub]

Assuming Bill goes Gonzales here, I hope they package the 4th and move back up tomorrow and snag The Unicorn.

 

[rodderick]

What are people expecting someone to give up to go from 17 to 14?

If you're not even getting trade chart value, why are you moving down exactly?

 

[GPO Man]

So, what, 50% chance we trade back again? 75%?

Nah, I think we make the pick. Bill doing the math and feels confident one of his guys will be there. Might as well get some extra draft capital.

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

Why are people mad. There are legit 5 guys that are hard to distinguish between and pick 120 could be schoonmaker or skeen or Wright. This is totally the right move

Not mad at ALL about the trading back 3 spots to pick up a mid-rounder. WTF.
