he adds help and even makes it easier for him to be the starting right tackle… I can see no way possible for clady not to start on the right side of the line he is way to good not to.

kcchiefs fan 56, no need for explainations…if he was on the board they should grab him… as with all the other poss. being passed on by teams to grab the o&d linemen this year that will leave some very good corners and safeties for them in round two

If Samuel leaves they will take a corner, no doubt in my mind. This draft is heavy with OT so they could easily grab one in round 2 if that is what they want to do. If they somehow resign Asante then I could see them grab a LB, DE, or trade the pick to get more in normal NE fashion.

I could still see them taking Safety Phillips, a LB or a CB over an OL, but it all depends on who is on the board for them….

In defense of the Clady pick. I did quite a bit of research on the Pats and on multiple Mock draft sites and came to the following conclusions:Gholston was the perfect choice, but wasn’t available. Too bad the 49ers didn’t suck more.The players who fit the Pat’s needs were too far down in the rankings to merit a #7 pick – LB and CB. The Pat’s don’t reach for players, they exploit those who do- thus this pick in the draft. Was Staley really worth it SF???The Pats have historically not drafted for need and it’s tough to argue that they haven’t found success with the best player possible- heck they cut their 3rd round pick this yearClady is a beast and fits the mold of their current offensive line. He’ll not only shore up a unit which is good, but he’ll provide the relief they need when, like this year, they face some injury issuesI welcome any and all discussion. I know this pick shocked the AA folks, but I don’t think it’s beyond reason to see it happen if the real draft unfolds this way.MV
