Bill Belichick’s job as head coach of the New England Patriots is on the line this weekend. That’s right, I said it. Now, before all the keyboard warriors who only read a title or first few sentences jump down my throat, I’m not saying Bill Belichick should currently be fired, relax. What I am saying, however, is that if Bill Belichick the GM doesn’t help out Bill Belichick the coach…
Versatility as you know is a hallmark of the Patriot Way. The Patriots look for versatility at every position when evaluating players. Versatility is extremely important along the offensive line. You need offensive lineman who can play multiple positions and do it in a pinch. Brenden Jaimes is that type of player. A three year starter at Nebraska, Jaimes started at both guard and tackle. He has the college career……
The Patriots have plenty of depth at running back with Sony Michel, Damien Harris, James White and J.J Taylor. Bill Belichick would like to replace the departed Rex Burkhead and he will do it in this draft. Javian Hawkins is small in stature but posted big numbers at Louisville rushing for a school record 1,525 yards in 2019. Hawkins opted out down the stretch last season which could impact his……
Syracuse had two top flight corners in Trill Williams and Ifeatu Melifonwu. Both have good size and can play inside, outside and possibly even play safety. The Patriots supposedly like Williams a little more and given their lack of depth at corner and some uncertainty with Stephon Gilmore and J.C Jackson in New England, the Patriots are going to take a corner who can develop and potentially start. Williams could……
It’s no secret that the Patriots need to add to their receiver room. Instead of adding either a slot receiver or a big receiver, they should consider adding a receiver that has good size and can work the middle of the field. Dax Milne can be that type of receiver. Milne runs good routes, has strong hands and size. At 6-1 195, he has the size to be a factor……
Williams is a dime cornerback at 5-9 185 but perhaps his biggest asset isn’t what he can do as corner but what he can do as a kick returner. Here is my scouting report on Avery Williams. Scouting Report Avery Williams, CB, 5-9 195, Boise State Man to Man: Williams can line up in the slot and has the hip and hand to jam slot receivers and re-route them. Stays……
Jaime Newman has had quite the journey since 2019. After a big season at Wake Forest where some were projecting he would be a first round pick, Newman decided to transfer to Georgia. Unfortunately COVID 19 happened last spring and Newman decided to opt out of the 2020 season. After not playing last season and not impressing at the Senior Bowl, there are a lot of question marks surrounding Newman…….
Hall is a big corner who can also slide inside and play safety in certain sub packages. A two year starter at San Diego State, Hall’s ball skills, willingness to support the run and versatility make him a prime Patriots target on day three. Here is my scouting report on Darren Hall. Scouting Report Darren Hall, CB, 5-11 1/2 189, San Diego State Man to Man: Hall has above average……
The Patriots signed Jonnu Smith and Hunter Henry this off-season and they drafted Devin Asiasi and Dalton Keene last year. There is no way they would draft a tight end right? Wrong! Tommy Tremble is the type of tight end the Patriots would draft. At 6-3 240, Tremble is a move tight end who can play the U (second tight end) and line up all over the place in formations…….
The Patriots have always had success with smaller, shifty running backs who can play multiple roles within the offense. From Kevin Faulk to Danny Woodhead to James White, no other team in the NFL in recent years has used smaller running backs the way the Patriots have. Especially in the passing game. White is still on the team as are Sony Michel, Damien Harris and J.J Taylor. Running back isn’t……
