It looks like our Patriots hit a home run in the draft. I am really excited!!
Round 1: N'Keal Harry -
A great football team has a foundation of solid teammates that implement a solid culture. Tom Brady is a great team leader, he is a great man, teammate, friend.
N'Keal Harry is a real salt of the earth type person. Real down to earth. Made of really good stuff like Tom Brady:
Granny's boy N'Keal Harry ready to rise at NFL combine
These are the high-character, highly competitive football players that help build a championship caliber team. Football intangibles!
N'Keal Harry reminds of Anquan Boldin. I want to see you compete on a football field. Too many nfl teams focus on 40 times, bench press, vertical... the NFL is not a body-building competition.
Round 2: Joejuan Williams -
Another great draft pick. The Patriots approach to the cornerback position can be described in one word: Diversity. They have a mix of fast cbs, physical cbs, and slot cbs....They like to use man and zone coverage to keep their opponents on their toes. They drafted a speed cb last year (Duke Dawson) and added a real physical/press CB in Williams. Don't forget about JC Jackson, he could be the next Ty Law.
Round 3 Chase Winovich -
How Conor McGregor helped turn Michigan's Chase Winovich into a defensive star
Another high character, high motor, high energy guy. I love these picks. Harry is the like the beast mode of WRS. Winovich is a monster at DE.
I love the Damien Harris pick as well. IMO Rex Burkhead is not a high-quality backup, he needs to be replaced.
The Jarrett Stidham draft pick in intriguing. He needs good coaching but isn't raw. He had a lot of success in college.
