The future is so bright...it's the 2023 Pats Draft Contest!

[mwonow]

@Mugsy's Jock called, @SMU_Sox and I are answering - back for another year, it's the draft contest!

We'll stick to last year''s basic structure: 1 point for each correctly-predicted draft pick or UDFA signed within 72 hours of the Mr. Irrelvant pick. I'll sweeten the annual $50 to the Jimmy Fund by adding $5 for each drafter who finishes above me (NOT a high bar!), up to a max of another $50/$100 total. So - more erudite players, more dough for Dana Farber!

The donation will be made in the name of the contest winner. In the case of a tie, earlier (or earliest, if its a multi-way tie) entry wins. Please list the 20 young'uns you think will need to break out the shades to enjoy the bright lights in Foxborough!

Re: those selections...

• 20mplayers (thanks, @pappymojo!)
• Lastname, Firstname format preferred - alphabetical order also preferred, though less important.
• Position and school are helpful
• Any thoughts on why the player would make the Pats better would be great to see. Even if those thoughts come from @SMU_Sox...

All slates need to be final before the draft starts Thursday Apr 27.

Good luck, everybody! Time for me to start working on my annual "I finished last for a good cause" slate of pics.

 

[pappymojo]

Yes!!!!

Not stated in the original post, but 20 players, correct?

I am building my list by position. Four players each from what I think are the four biggest positions of need (OT, WR, Edge, CB), followed by four players from other positions. The consensus seems to be that OT is top heavy but that other positions of need are much deeper. I bolded a couple of players from outside OT who I think they might grab if they fell to 14. I know that some of the players marked as OT may move inside in the NFL. I really wish I had more slots to include more tight ends and safeties. Edited to remove Darnell Wright based on character concerns.

Harrison, Anton, OT, Oklahoma
Johnson Jr., Paris, OT, Ohio State
Mauch, Cody, OT, North Dakota State
Steen, Tyler, OT, Alabama

UDFA Prospects list

Payne Durham TE Purdue (FORMER LAX!)
Michael Wilson (not a udfa probably)
Michael Turk P Oklahoma
Andrew Carter DE/OLB Army (testing very poorly might slip pretty late) replaces Brenton Cox Jr Edge Jr Florida (headcase, BB spent time with him)
Malik Heath WR Mississippi (fast 3 cone)
Dalton Wagner OL Arkansas. Very tall and actually fairly nimble. They seem to like that.
AF Finley S Ole Miss
Jake Witt, OT Northern Michigan (replace Tyler Steen OT Alabama)
Andrew Voorhes OL USC (tore his ACL at the combine so prefect for like a sixth round pick; replacing Olusegun Oluwatimi C Michigan.
Jack Colletto FB Oregon State (sort of a H-back/TE type)
Brenton Cox LB/Heacase Floridia
Ryan Walk C Oregon
TJ Bass OG Oregon (might be draftable)
Trey Dean Safety Florida*David Durden, West Florida, WR. Putting an asterisk on this one because he's my designated "sixth round draft pick to play speical teams" guy of the year. Fast physical WR who was a baseball player and drafted by the sox years ago.
Shaka Heyward LB Duke ILB type. Might be draftable had a suprisingly fast 40 (4.53) at the combine)

2. Battle, Jordan S Alabama
3. Bell, Ronnie WR Michigan
4. Bradford, Anthony OL LSU

6. Brown, Chase RB Illinois
7. Campbell, Jack LB Iowa
8. Curtis, McClendon OL Chattanooga
9. Fehoko, Viliami Edge San Jose State

11. Harrison, Zach Edge Ohio State
12. Johnson, Paris OL Ohio State
13. Kraft, Tucker TE South Dakota State

16. Perry, AT WR Wake Forest
17. Tinsley, Mitchell WR Penn State
18. Tune, Clayton QB Houston
19. Turner, DJ CB Michigan
20. Voorhees, Andrew OL USC

I hope there is an opportunity for the Pats to trade down. Unless Paris Johnson is on the board at 14, I don't love the options there.

Would rather get an extra dart or two to throw in the 50ish range. Compared to the consensus, I'm high on Zach Harrison, and really high on Tucker Kraft and Riley Moss. I love Riley Moss.

Is 7 Joneses a gimmick? Sure... but I actually would be happy with pretty much all of them (Truman maybe for less rational reasons than the rest). Start me off with Dawand or Broderick, please.

Edit: Oh shit, @Ale Xander beat me to it. No keeping up the the Joneses, I suppose.

Going to cross-post from the Draft Thread in case you want to reference some potential fits:

Revised big board with a couple minor tweaks

I also want to share the unedited versions of my offense and defense Patriots superlatives early.

Happy hunting.

[mwonow]

Okay - I generally do more research than this (or at least, crib from @SMU_Sox ), but I get nearly all of 'em wrong anyhow, so...since the Jones's thing is done already, let's do the one-per-school trick!

It is probably pretty clear from the below, but - as I have no faith at all in Mac, I'm hoping that the Pats invest in the ability to move the ball on the ground, and stop the other team from doing same.

Robinson, Bijan - RB - TX
Luepke, Hunter, FB - ND State
Spawn-Ford, Brevn - TE - Minn
Washington, Darnell - TE- Georgia
Mayer, Michael - TE - Notre Dame
Wright, Darnell - OT - TN
Bresee, Bryan - DT - Clemson
Smith, Mazi - DT - Michigan
Branch, Brian - S - Alabama
Brown, Sidney - S - Illinois
Robinson, Jammie - S - FL State
Campbell, Jack - LB - Iowa
Herbig, Nick - LB - Wisconsin
Flowers, Zay - WR - BC
Rie, Rashee - WR - SMU
Porter Jr., Joey - CB - Penn St
Brents, Julius - CB - Kansas St
McDonald, Will - Edge - Iowa State
Adebawore, Adetomiwa - Edge - Northwestern
Korsak, Adam - P - Rutgers

FTR, I really wanted to pick Monte Pottebaum of Iowa, but not as much as I am hopig that Jack Campbell becomes a Pat.

[Devizier]

Feeling glad that I didn't go too heavy on defensive backs or first rounders, because I didn't think Gonzalez would slide.

 

[j44thor]

Looks like only me an pappymojo predicted the Gonzalez slide, that was definitely a hope pick for me. Off to a good start.

 

[FL4WL3SS]

I bet they take a QB in the 4th with that pick

Can you tell me more about this guy? Position? School? Not on my big board.

I think his name is Georgia OL BUST same-last-name-as-Brandon.
