Chad Jackson & Maroney, obviously David Thomas TE Texas. Was Vince Young's best friend. Now part of Brady's Bunch. Pats and their multiple TE Sets are pure genius. G. Mills TE/FB Tulsa. It confused me at first especially w/ Thomas being picked ahead of him then I realized GM will be the heir for Patrick Pass (the receiving FB).
Yeah I think most fans will be pleased with this draft. Although we fully expected them to address the glaring needs at LB & DB, the Pats did get good value especially in Chad Jackson & Ryan O'Callaghan on day 2.

very good picks, I still think DeAngelo would have been a better selection for you with your 1st rounder.
I know DeAngelo was the guy fans had in mind when it came to selecting a 1st round RB, but after seeing Maroney 1st hand I think the Pats made the right choice. Only time will tell.
I agree. Maroney has looked great so far. I was hoping the Pats wopuld take him after watching him at Minnesota. He's explosive and looks like he can break tackles as well as outrun defenders. I see Corey Dillon as a change of pace back by week 3.
Great draft i bet u still want the offensive genius charlie weiss back tho...not getting him back for quite a while if ever tho....LETS GO IRISH!!!

I wasn't as high on him as I was with Williams but he certainly proved me wrong in preseason with the way he played. The Pats and Broncos were the 2 teams that I thought would've taken him ahead of Williams and sure enough the Pats did. Maroney should have a big year and I think next season will be a breakout player.
I love Chad Jackson. Huge Steal. and Maroney did pretty amazing in the pre season. They had a great draft.

At the time he was a steal but right now he looks soft and isn't making the noise that Greg Jennings is.
