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

[Section15Box113]

Breer: The Patriots are taking Oregon CB Christian Gonzalez.

God, this makes me happy.

And we get pick 120 out of it.

 

[bsj]

love it.

 

[DJnVa]

Patriots barely waited...pick in on ESPN already too.

 

[rodderick]

NOW TRADE UP TO LIKE 29 AND GET FLOWERS

 

[GPO Man]

Great, now we'll only lose 28-7 in games within our division instead of 38-7.

Better off stacking the defense until we figure out if Mac is the guy or not.

[NortheasternPJ]

Boooooom!

 

[67YAZ]

All the physical tools and athleticism to be an all pro. Klemm should have some insight into the kids’ character & work ethic. Amazing to get a player like this at 17.

 

[BaseballJones]

Are we happy with Gonzalez?

 

[Dave Stapleton]

No drama

 

[ElcaballitoMVP]

Let's GO

 

[E5 Yaz]

Eisen butt-hurt that the Patriots screwed over his Jets

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

Post your enthusiasm about the pick here:

(1) Pats Round1 Pick #17: CB Christian Gonzalez | Sons of Sam Horn

 

[Minneapolis Millers]

Super smart trade down.

 

[Lose Remerswaal]

Ok I can go yell at Brown/Tatum now.

It’s not helping me

 

[MonstahsInLeft]

Such a pivotal piece in a BB defense. Now go nuts on the offensive side!

 

[Dave Stapleton]

Really hard because for the first time in a long time Pats has a chance to take the first WR in the draft

 

[Marbleheader]

He doesn't look very fast

 

[AB in DC]

Emmanuel Lewis

 

[DJnVa]

Great, now we'll only lose 28-7 in games within our division instead of 38-7.

So draft a WR and lose 38-14? If you think the gap is that large, then there's no pick here that would matter.

 

[j-man]

great pick u still need a T

 

[Ale Xander]

Hope Lazar knows what he’s talking about

 

[Mystic Merlin]

He doesn't look very fast

4.38?

 

[E5 Yaz]

And now ... the Levis watch

 

[Fishercat]

Pats need lots of help but people I trust love Gonzalez and you need great DBs. Very happy

 

[Ed Hillel]

He looks...let's just say stoic. Yes, stoic.

 

[jcd0805]

BB putting y’all in your place lol

 

[ehaz]

He's still got it.

 

[j-man]

but my picks this week have sucked so there that

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Better off stacking the defense until we figure out if Mac is the guy or not.

Unfortunately, never going to find out if Mac is the guy or not if you give him a bunch of scrubs to throw to, and an offensive line that can't keep him upright.

That said, I'm fine with punting on 2023 to get into the Caleb Williams/Drake Maye sweepstakes in 2024.

 

[ekim colorwaterpit]

If we had picked him at 14 everyone would have been fucking psyched. Now we have a legit chance to get an impact player at 120 too

 

[BigJay]

He didn't seem to happy with the pick....

 

[Dollar]

Would be cool if this was like Ty Law falling to #23 in '95.

 

[DJnVa]

He doesn't look very fast

Cuz you blinked.

 

[Marciano490]

I was feeling proud of the board for not taking such easy bait and being all mature and shit.

Helluva thing to call the wife.

 

[DJnVa]

He didn't seem to happy with the pick....

????

 

[RoDaddy]

He doesn't look very fast

4.38 40 by one report

 

[rodderick]

They needed this. Can't count on the defense remaining as good as last year with their schedule of QBs. They faced a ton of scrubs in 2022, to keep the same level of production would require much better performance.

 

[BlackJack]

Buttcrack lied to us. I hate when that happens.

It’s hips that don’t lie. Everyone knows buttcracks are full of shit.

 

[BigJay]

????

Christian looked miserable. Didn't even smile.

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

He's still got it.

View attachment 64102

It's the steal of the draft so far. The 4th rounder is the proverbial cherry on top.

 

[Marbleheader]

4.38?

Walking up to the podium

 

[JM3]

Christian looked miserable. Didn't even smile.

He was supposed to be a top 10 pick. It's probably been a stressful day.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Walking up to the podium

Ohhhh….woops.

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Gonzales doesn’t look super happy

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

Hmmm, maybe Kincaid falls late enough for BB to grab another TE.

 

[cornwalls@6]

Pretty restrained, perfunctory bro hug with Rog………. He’s already a true Patriot!!

 

[j-man]

Eisen butt-hurt that the Patriots screwed over his Jets

well he can cry about it on his radio show he shouild be used to dispointed

 

[GPO Man]

Christian looked miserable. Didn't even smile.

He’s doing his Belichick impersonation.

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

Gonzales doesn’t look super happy

Not every pick is going to throw it up like Gronk.

Now that was epic.

 

[Ed Hillel]

This kinda reminds me of Wilfork in 2003. Hopefully the same result!
