Round 1
27. WR Kendall Wright, Baylor - It was reported that the Patriots went to Baylor for a last minute Private workout with Wright earlier this week. The Patriots did the same with Nate Solder last season and made the Pick. I can see the same scenario playing out with Wright. Wright is a versatile Receiver that can add a Dimension to the Patriots Offense that they don't currently have. He can play outside or in the slot. He plays extremely fast. A potential replacement for Wes Welker?
31. OLB Courtney Upshaw, Alabama - The Pass Rushing Outside Linebacker the Patriots have been looking for, for years. Upshaw is highly Instinctive, a great competitor, and a 4 down player. He is a leader on and off the field and is a Winner. I love everything Upshaw brings to the table and would love to see the Patriots Draft him.
Round 2
48. FS Harrison Smith, Notre Dame - After players like Matt Slater and James Ihedigbo saw significant time opposite Pat Chung last year the Patriots realize it's time for an upgrade. Smith has great football IQ. He is very versatile, he can play Strong or Free Safety. He is a Play making type Safety. He is a solid leader and good teammate.
62. CB Janoris Jenkins, North Alabama - Jenkins might be the Best Pure Corner in this Draft. Jenkins is slipping due to character issues and off the field incidents. He is well worth the risk at #62. Jenkins could be the next great shutdown corner in this league if he keeps his head on straight. He is a 4 down player who can excel on Special Teams. Belichick loves Florida kids, even ones with character flaws.
Round 3
93. DE Jared Crick, Nebraska - In one of my earlier Mock Drafts I had the Patriots taking Crick in Round 1. He has always stood out to me as a Patriots type of player. He can play inside in a 4-3 but his best fit is as a 3-4 DE. He has great work ethic and tremendous intangibles. He also is great in the community which I believe is something the Kraft's look for in a player.
Round 4
126. OT Matt Reynolds, BYU - With Matt Light retiring the Patriots need to add depth behind Vollmer and Solder. Reynolds is an experienced, hard working, prideful, competitive player who would fit great in this o line group.
