Looks like LaDainian Tomlinson could end up at the Jets, bit strange if you ask me letting Thomas Jones go who was far better last year

Only visiting, probably just keeping his options open.

TE Ben Watson has signed with the Browns on a three-year, $12 million deal that includes $6.35 million guaranteed, its sad to see him leave the Pats but we never really used him properly anyway like every other TE we have had in the past few years, I think he could do well as a recieving TE in Cleveland with all the poop recievers they have!

He didn't get used much in NE because as someone put it on patsfans, he has "frying pans for hands" and he's that good of a TE his best play for the team was a tackle no loss, now lets get Aaron Hernandez drafted, he could easily be the next Dallas Clark, very similar players.

Hernandez finished his college career with 111 receptions for 1,382 yards and 12 touchdowns.

not bad to say he only played every game in his final year (junior).

Not really.

Dallas Clarke can actually pass protect. Hernandez is pretty poor at that. You'd be better getting Gresham, who i think you go with in round 1.

Really can't see Belichik taking a TE in round 1, especially with Ricky Sapp (OLB) being brought in for a private workout this week, and Odrick the 3-4 DE probably being available at #22, both players would be of far more use to the Patriots. Ideally if everything falls into place I'd like to see:

1 - Odrick (DE)
2a - Best (RB)
2b - Hughes (OLB)
2c - Hernandez (TE)

I'd look out for Cooley and Davis from the Redskins. One maybe traded as we've just picked up Sean Ryan from the Chiefs.

That would be a very good draft. It's very unlikely that you'd get all three of those in the second round. Particularly Best and Hughes, who could go at the back end of round 1 and definately high in round 2, i'm not sure where your picks are in round 2 though.

Ideally i'd love our draft to be:

1. Charles Brown OT
2. BEST CB AVAILABLE (Kareem Jackson/Donovan Warren)
3. Toby Gerhart RB
4. Myron Rolle S

I'm a big fan of Rolle, he played for FSU which is the college team i follow. He is a very promising player and ridiculously intelligent. He took a year out (hence why he won't go that high), as he won a Rhodes Scholarship to come and study in Oxford University, he does something to do with medicine and i'm sure i read he wants to be a doctor after he's done in the NFL.

They are not too bad then. I could see you get one of Hughes/Best and Hernandez but not both Hughes and Best. Particularly Best, who i think could go right at the top of round 2.
