Patriots Draft: Like it or not, trading down made sense for the Patriots
For the sixth in the twenty year tenure of Bill Belichick, the Patriots did not make a first round selection.

Obviously the Patriots felt comfortable making this trade because the players that they had stacked on the top……

That is why I am not listing the top in this class in my scouting reports because unless one falls at 23 and is too good a value to pass up, they are not going to take one early. Day two and three however are a different story. Here are my scouting reports for the ten receivers I……
