Cosell starts at 10:20
Starts with Juju and then Gesicki. AT 20:00 he gets into Mac Jones thoughts. At 26:00 he gets into the Jones brothers. He loves Marcus Jones and Jack Jones. At 31:00 he talks about
Ty Thornton and how much he likes him, thinks he can be a player if he's fully healthy this year.

Jack looked good in very limited time. But not sure if Jack Jones is durable, and Marcus is clearly a slot CB only due to his height. So the team still really needs a CB1, as Jon Jones wasn’t the answer last year. If Jack Jones isn’t durable then the Patriots need 2 starting outside corners. The Chiefs last draft didn’t overthink it and took McDuffie and Chanel, rookies who both each made a half dozen tackles in the Superbowl and got a ring.

Those rookies weren't the reason why they won...

But both were good picks of rookies who were notable contributors in December, the playoffs, and the Superbowl. Both really turned it on the last month of the season and basically took over their respective positions on defense. Also noteworthy since the Eagles offense had been so physical and successful.
Without writing it all out, a pretty stark contrast as well to the Pats’ first two picks last year.

The Pats last draft was good so far...

Don't you have kids? Or nieces/nephews?
Don't do that.

Actually, Jack Jones graded better in coverage than KC's McDuffie and Marcus Jones graded better in coverage than KC's Williams per PFF.

Interesting thought by Bedard on why STs matter less now than back in 2003 era. OTOH, I have no clue as to what Cosell means by " juice" WRT Robinson. Talks about how well he runs, how well the reads blocks, how great he is at not only recognizing defensive positioning and gaps, but how those gaps change and morph post-snap...but says he has no juice. Wish he could have used film.

@ 3Point .....although I agree, but after further review & contemplation.......maybe only asking Mills to play Safety and keep the play in front of him & faahkin' wrap-up tackle when called apon will bring out the bettah in him aftah all

Mills Back?
Thought we needed more .

Patriots bring back defensive back Jalen Mills on a restructured one-year deal - The Boston Globe
Mills, who could help fill the void at safety left by Devin McCourty, originally signed a four-year, $24 million deal in 2021.

His hair is still green, so probably not much.
There's no dead money if cut, so could get cut at any point without costing the Pats anything.

Thanks for that. Also, how much did his salary for 2023 go down?
As far as I can understand it didn't go down.
This is the old contract:
And this is the new one:
Hopefully Miguel is able to clear it up, because I'm most likely butchering it.

So the result is potential cap savings if they turn around and cut him? Thats it?
Hmm.... they let him try to find a better deal or something they felt good about didn't materialize.
