 No really, the Buccaneers traded up for a kicker.

 Also I got a little bored during the draft because the NFLN announcers are terrible, so in continuing the AV discussion, I plotted out the total AV per draft class for the AFC East since 2000:



I might do some more tomorrow, but it's a bit tighter then I thought it'd be.

+ They pretty much took nothing but positions of genuine need, only really missing on running back
+ I trust the Patriots when it comes to drafting fatties and linebackers, of which they took several
- Obligatory backup QB pick that will amount to nothing but future cheap trade bait that will somehow be spun as super genius manuvering
- Patriots absolutely can't draft wide receivers worth a single poo poo, but spend 2 picks on the position anyway. At this point why even loving bother?
- Obligatory weirdo small school DB/LB/WTF pick out of nowhere BECAUSE HE'S SO FAR AHEAD OF THE CURVE

So yeah, that's about right. A super generic Patriots draft if there ever was one. :effort:

That's pretty much how I feel. They spent their top pick on a (allegedly) good pass blocking guard, when OL help was pretty much the one glaring weakness on the team.

I'm fine with garbage crew at RB, since it's not like their job is hard if the OL play is decent. Probably would've rather had a 4th round RB instead of a WR, but whatever.
