Well BB finally moved up in the draft...TWICE...and really nailed it!
The Patriots traded their No. 27 pick and third-rounder for the Bengals' No. 21 spot and took Syracuse defensive end Chandler Jones.
They then dealt the No. 31 choice and a fourth-rounder to Denver and went for Alabama linebacker Dont'a Hightower.

Both Jones and Hightower will make the Pats D MUCH better! I never thought they would be available and credit to Bill for making the moves when he did to get them. High chance both players could be All-Pro.

2 Picks in the 2nd round is all thats left but enough to fill the need in the secondary? Perhaps Boykin, or Jenkins? Both?
