If Pats want Penix, there’d be no reason not to trade down. The #3 pick will attract multiple teams trying to get Daniels or Harrison. Not sure how far down Pats could go to assure getting Penix but the lower they’re willing to go, the more capital they’ll demand along with the #1.
Decent chance penix goes second round…
According to whom? He's #10 on Kiper's Big Board.
Joe Burrow is a guy that rose high in the draft after a great season, even though he wasn't the most athletic guy coming out of high school.
ESPN in their best available has him as 30th best available player.
Kiper is ESPN's main draft guy. His big board came out 3 days ago. A lot of the draft rankings have yet to be updated.
For instance, Tez Walker (UNC WR that got screwed out of playing games) just jumped from around 100 to top 50 according to nfldraftbuzz.com, a site that has a good draft simulator. In my free time, I'm simulating the Pats draft by trading down for a king's ransom.
Penix stock shot up after TX game. If he has another game like that in championship game, he is probably a top 10 lock. I think he is the best QB in this draft.
It’s pretty wild to think a guy that has been in college for 6 years has his stock shoot up from one game.
All I gotta say, if clay and I are this lock-stepped on something, it must be true.
