Would be a shame if Belichick used an Imperius Curse on Panthers GM Gettleman to make him sit out the draft, allowing life-sustaining prospects to fall to the Belichick. Would also be a shame if Belichick commanded Gettleman's last act to be to trade him #KONY2014 for a sandwich. Would be a shame is all...

This and I'd say it's much more probable they move down. They only have 7 picks this year, that's very low for them.

Generous to call the Dolphins-Steelers a 'game', they got the doors blown off at the coin toss lol But point does stand, they did what they needed to get into the playoffs, the Ravens did not. Still think we were a better team, though, for whatever that matters.

Okay so that goes back to my original points: Does he need to play better? Yes. Everyone and their mom has come to that conclusion. Will he be on the team for the foreseeable future? Yes. The team still has a lot of confidence in him and his contract is structured in such a way that it makes it harmful to cut him, anyways. Beyond those two points, what is there to talk about? 100+ pages worth? At least we don't see the phrases 'deer in the headlights', 'can't/won't win the big game', etc anymore. If he played like he normally does, as you say, what are we to do?

Ah, so that's the rub. I won't excuse it, he missed some throws he should make. He made some sloppy interceptions, too. Those hurt us, especially early in the season where we lost some winnable games. However, he did play markedly better down the stretch. From Week 9 (Thursday vs Cleveland) to the penultimate Pittsburgh game, through those 7 weeks, he put up 14 TDs to 7 INTs, 280+ yds/game, a 94.7 passer rating, and his 6.9 yards/attempt was at his career average. Through those 7 weeks, we also won 4, losing to Dallas, New England, and Pittsburgh. That's respectable but the teams' and his floundering in the middle of the season kept us from the playoffs.

Thank you to the draft threads here so I at least know some names to go after... and the various mock drafts - including ontheclock - so I know when to get them lol.

What is there to debate over? Does he need to play better? Yes. Everyone and their mom has come to that conclusion. Will he be on the team for the foreseeable future? Yes. The team still has a lot of confidence in him and his contract is structured in such a way that it makes it harmful to cut him, anyways.

With the 39th pick of the 3rd round, Bill Belichick absorbs the lifeforce of an intern to make his selection... Trey Hendrickson, DE, Florida Atlantic University http://www.upressonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/UP2_-Mohammed-F-Emran-4011_web-900x600.jpg

With the 32nd pick in the 3rd round, Bill Belichick feels no emotion as he selects Howard Wilson, CB, Houston

confirmed

Seeing the selection of Ford, Bill Belichicks salt levels rise to unhealthy levels. The additional sodium dries up his slimy outer membrane, crippling him and reducing him to a heap on the floor. Robert Kraft finds him shriveled up on the floor. Panicking, Kraft douses him in the closest thing at hand - the Burnett's Pink Lemonade Vodka / Cranberry juice mixed drink his 50+ years younger 'girlfriend' made for him. Rising from the sickening puddle, Belichick mutters an thank you before skulking back into the shadows.

Still have picks: 3.32 3.39 4.24 5.33 5.39 7.21 Looking to swap for players only. Looking for CBs, 4-3 DEs/DTs, and receivers

All you @ArsenalRaven666

With the 32nd pick in the 2nd round... Bill Belichick slithers up to the draft's stage, a trail of ooze and mucus in his wake. As he approaches the podium to announce his pick, the audience is taken aback with horror and disgust. Behind the podium, most of this disturbing sight is hidden, however various small tentacles appear and disappear as he gathers enough breath to mumble into the microphone. He smirks and thinks to himself, 'How smart am I? The self-proclaimed best player in the draft falling to me in the last pick of the second round? ha.ha.ha...' He breaks a smile, an unnerving combination of gnarled teeth and pained grimace, parents guard their children's faces and women shriek in despair. It does not bother the Belichick. Through his cracked facade, he mutters... Jalen 'Teez' Tabor, CB The lights flicker - then go out. When the flash on a second later, the Belichick has vanished. The only trace on him is a trail of slime and a wallet-sized picture of Tom Brady... This came to me in a dream.

You must walk from the Sept to the Keep

Shame... Shame... Shame

Didn't see him on the big board but I'll change it

On mobile, sorry, 28th pick of 2nd round Patriots select Dion Dawkins, OL, Temple

Belichick is getting itchy, he hasn't broken a rule is a month or so...

Sometime around there, I know I had seen the announcement and was waiting for the sign up but was actually late by a couple of days - chalk that up to spring break

That's totally it. He was another 'must have' a couple years ago

Ravens confirmed this on their twitter They seem to have broken the news and all of the other sources re-posted it Edit - And I could've sworn he played for the Chargers but PFR and Wikipedia say it was only the Chiefs and the Cowboys... who am I thinking of??

And started all of those games. It's not Sherman or Revis in their prime but he's an average/solid starter.
