Another trade
Posted by Rick on April 27, 2008
Day Two has started with another Patriots’ trade, as they traded out of the #6 spot to the San Diego Chargers, who used the pick to nab FB Jacob Hester from LSU. I don’t yet know the details, but tha Patriots now seem to have a fifth round pick at #25 (160th overall pick).
Having had a night to reflect on Day One, I am going to amend my criticism of the Terrence Wheatley pick-up, but only slightly. There seems to be some feel out there with football experts that the Pats may have gotten a steal here and found a shutdown corner. I certainly hope so, but am not impressed by Belichick’s recent draft history. Time will tell.
