    Ya All need to watch Polk's highlights. I watched every UW game, and he came out of no where w/ a catch.

  2. @terrygyimah1956

    Hoping he becomes a star…Patriots fan

  3. @moheganson

    Ceedee Lamb with more tenacity

  4. @magnificojuandissimo6010

    The Polk comp is Dez Bryant ; im okay with the pick he was selected because of his style and flexibility to play with drake maye with other big name WR still on the board they decided to pass on one can only assume it was because of their attitudes AD is too Hollywood for us here in New England tbh and Polk has been a VERY. Productive receiver for the past 2 seasons he’ll probably get the 3 spot right away and Bourne and Osborn will split the X and Y this season will be another tough one with Maye not seeing the field until well after the bye maybe week 13 -14 then grab some free agents and get another high draft pick and let maye play in the 2026 season that’s are plan it seems like which I’m fine with rebuilds don’t happen overnight people the Texans had been building that team for years which is why it seemed like the popped up into a powerhouse last season . Give Mayo some time ;as a former patriot ,and a BB disciple he’s got 3 seasons to prove his plan will pan out granted he’s not the GM but him and wolf are definitely working hand and glove to turn this around —have faith

  5. @jonathanocchi7044

    There were used Kleenex faster that Polk that were still available I’m sure

  6. @marway99

    i dont like mcconkey he looks wirf when he runs! lol i like polk we got!

  7. @granbypd

    Georgia had Ladd on a load management snap count because of his back and ankle problems. That’s what I heard a few analysts say.

  8. @Itz_Crawfish

    More like a D- lmao

  9. @ealbertson318

    Take a shot every time they say Ladd McConkey

  10. @Enchan-Trix

    With Ladd and Adonai still being there I don’t like this pick. I would not have taken Polk over them. If they weren’t there, then I like the pick

  11. @nocturnalrecluse1216

    FFFFFFF

  12. @edwardtorres9922

    CBS Fantasy Sports and Sports coverage in general is underrated because of ESPN brand popularity.
    These dudes are legit ! Educated, well researched opinions. Keep it up ya’ll!

  13. @aaronl8609

    Horrible
    This is absurd
    He is slow
    McConkey is awesome and way faster.best hands in the draft

  14. @riddle8582

    This coverage stinks! Booo

  15. @PATRIOTTTT

    Mitchell was on the board man this is an F+ pick

  16. @Devon_spoon21

    Also pass on AD Michtell

  17. @jackharrington697

    Not a fan of this pick hope it pans out though..

  18. @GreenPartyHat

    Imagine skipping Ladd….. same old Patriots.

  19. @strangesightsinthesky

    felger's from green bay.what's he doing commentating on boston sports?are any of the boston media actually from that state?

  20. @blowfishes

    Please take Daniels and McCarthy at #2 and #3 (any order) and leave Maye for the Vikings. If Maye is gone, then Vikings stay at #11 and take Penix Jr. and use #23 for the best player available – hopefully that will be a DT.

  21. @SteveBarna

    If we don't give Drake Maye a new QB coach every year for 3 years we will make this kid amazing

  22. @Jack-ms3so

    Fire Felger!

  23. @DONALDG.AUSTIN

    They didn't play football in NC high schools during Maye's senior year because of COVID. So yes, he's a bit behind but smart as a whip. He'll catch up and fast, But I agree that he needs to sit a bit; half a year or whatever. With Maye you have to look at his upside, NOT how he is now. Look at Jayden Daniel's first two or three years. I like Daniels, but if you're going to tear apart a kid, tear apart all of them.

  24. @dwayneroberts6616

    The kid is twenty years old 😂 he's going to be just as big as Josh Allen when he fills out in a couple years.

  25. @dwayneroberts6616

    Drake Maye isn't coming to NE 😂. He's going to Washington their not stupid. Drake Maye is the second best QB in this draft. If that kid had the tools and protection Williams and Daniels had he'd be #1 in this draft. The kids from an athletic family he's a stud.

  26. @digitaltwizzlers8065

    Why are we still talking to Felger?

  27. @tue1981

    Please NE don't ruin Maye he can run but nothing like Daniels, he will get killed and ruined by NE. Don't pick him – do not think that the QB's value and future are directly transferable to your team …. improve your OL (primarily) and WR (second) and then pick a QB. You could this very year with Minnesota's #11 if you want Penix. If you sit…that's ok, you have two first round picks next year, go up and make a move next year. Do not drink the Kool Aid that says there is a one-to-one QB talent and future plug him in …. absolutely no, NE will ruin this young man.

  28. @kurt1618

    Can you kids grow up

  29. @NonnyStrikes

    TELL ME DRAKE DOESN'T LOOK LIKE FAVRE

  30. @NonnyStrikes

    Please teams, pass on Drake. Allow the Vikes to grab him. PLEASE

  31. @Riwadih

    Drake Maye is a bust 100%. Why would we draft a "worse" Josh Allen?? Its also telling how the talking heads go to intangibles like "leadership" as his best trait. We need to trade down!

  32. @Jakery1057

    Draft the kid, move back into round 1 and grab a stud WR then go offense the rest of the way. He can sit a season and they can go from there.

  33. @thomas3487

    Please fall to #3…Repeat until April 25th

  34. @sugarbear1225

    😂😂😂😂

  35. @JuanRodriguez-sb7zp

    Felger is crazy 😂😂😂

  36. @stickman1742

    Breer left out the most important comparison to Josh Allen. Josh has shown himself to be somewhat of a loser with bad turnovers at bad times and actually at any times. I've watched games where Allen singlehandedly lost the game for the Bills that they should have won. Josh has talent and a 2-cent brain. Where does Maye compare to that? That is all I want to know.

    Actually Breer did address it in a roundabout way saying what a good interview Maye was and that he was observed as a leader everywhere he was. That doesn't necessarily tell us how he will be out on the field in big moments, but it at least is a very good sign. Much better than crying to your mommy.

    And please don't defend Mac Jones. If any of these guys can't tell that Mac Jones sucks then they shouldn't have this job.

  37. @stickman1742

    Didn't all the teams think Zach Wilson was an obvious #2? Honestly, I don't really give a crap what NFL teams think as they are wrong on these things far more often than they are right. The only thing I care about is what the Pats think. The simple fact is, the history of NFL teams drafting qbs is putrid. No one should even pretend they know anything about this.

  38. @stickman1742

    Shouldn't a good organization be able to take a very talented 21 y/o qb and make him better? I understand he ain't perfect, but enough of these average joes. If the Pats have people that know what they're doing then Maye should become the best version of himself that he can. Josh Allen is a turnover machine, he has so many flaws that get glossed over. The Bills coaches are obviously afraid of letting him throw too much and with very good reason. Still, they have made Allen the best that he can be regardless of what moronic Bills fans want to think. They want to think Allen is the second coming, but he isn't. Far too many turnovers with that dumb look on his face.

    As far as the bad throws brought up by Felger, I can't even count how many times Brady started a game with his throwing off. It sometimes took until the 2nd quarter to get it on target. That is just a simple fact of life for qbs, they need to get into a rhythm. Don't know how good Maye will be, but some bad throws at the start of something is pretty meaningless. Not like Felger hasn't harped on meaningless things throughout his "career".
