His arm is right there with Carr imo.

 

[TTN2810]

He was next on my list to watch!

 

[Pugz]

Haha yup. I can't remember what they said about ugly GF's but they did say something about it.

just because a dude has a smoking hot gf doesn't mean they have sky high confidence. i would refuse any of those questions.

You're in for quite a treat.

Moneyball

 

[Boda]

Boda, where have you heard undrafted? I've read anywhere from 3-5.
 
I like him because he's a damn good quarterback whose being overlooked because of size and the ACL tear.

Right now I've been seeing/hearing it a lot around FF as well as a couple other spots.  Not saying it'll be correct but that's what's been going around lately apparently the ACL tear is making teams nervous but like I said who really knows.

 

[TTN2810]

Hmm. Honestly, that's the first I've heard of that :/
 
In case you guys haven't, I strongly urge you guys to check out these draft sites:
 
Mocking the Draft
First Round Grade
Seahawks Draft Blog (geared towards Seahawks, but the guys is really knowledgable with interesting insight)

I'm sorry, but anyone who mocks Amaro to NE is just extremely misinformed and I wouldn't trust them ever again


He fits in with the Pats worse than almost every other TE in this draft. He's a small handed, oversized slot receiver who has an awful 3 cone time


Would bet money that he isn't a Patriot

 

[Hurricane Season]

I hope he goes to the Patriots now so I can sig that quote.
 
You'll have to fix the part where he comes three times tho

 

[TTN2810]

LOL, Jake.
 
Not even sure which site you're referring to, I don't follow them for their Mocks. They don't claim to be experts on every teams schemes and needs man. 
 
EDIT
Mocking the Draft, I see. Well in fairness, I follow them for their other writer, Matthew Fairburn. Really smart, intelligent funny guy. Good writer.
FRG too. Well lol, idk what to tell you. They aren't Pats fans so give em a break. They know football man.

 

[bosoxlover12]

If they know football, why would they put him there?


Belichick always drafts guys that have versatility, perform on ST, and have great 3 cone drill times. He has none of that.

Amaro had over 87% of his receptions come from the slot. We just gave Amendola a huge contract last year to be a slot receiver. And hopefully we bring back Edelman too. We need a seam threat and/or vertical threat. That's not Amaro.

Every TE Belichick has had, was a good blocker, except for AH. But Hernandez ran a 6.83 3cone, compared to Amaro's 7.42. Amaro isn't a good blocker.


U can totally sig me if you want. I feel extremely confident he will not be a Patriot

 

[TTN2810]

Like I said, they know more X and O stuff rather than who is exactly going to fit who. They're scout the players, not the teams. You can't deny the Pats don't need a TE, though, Gronk is glass, and Amaro's the best available there. Mocks are all a crapshoot anyways lol.

 

[TTN2810]

to this:
 

I've watched one game so far lol. Within the first drive of that game he lobbed a go route to the WR against Cover 2 lol. AFTER he rolled out and the safety was right with the WR. SMFH.

 

[TTN2810]

I'm getting sick of people saying Cooks and ODB are slot guys. They aren't huge but they both still get it at it's high point. They can play outside like badass mother fuckers.

 

[Teagz]

Seems like if you're not six foot plus these days people automatically want to make you out to be a slot guy.
 
 
 
Desean Jackson's made a living playing outside and he's 5'9 at best.

Steve Smith is 5'9" and he has made a living outside as well.

 

[bosoxlover12]

I would disagree that Amaro is the #2 TE, id rank him at #4-5


But yea, Cooks is def an outside receiver

 

[TTN2810]

He's better than Tavon Austin was, too.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Cooks reminds me of Santana Moss so much.  Both are incredible route runners.  So crispy.

 

[bosoxlover12]

I was never high on Tavon tbh, and I would take 10 different receivers from this draft over Tavon (Watkins, Cooks, Evans, Lee, Benjamin, ODB, Landry, Robinson, Matthews, Devante)
