Yep, Belichick is looking at guys who will likely be available at #15.

We should also look at Belichick's QB drafting history. It isn't exactly all roses.

Brady is like the exception in everyway. I could see Jones on this list like an inverted Brady.

In his defense he's never drafted a QB in the 1st round, but honestly Belichick's draft record isn't a particularly good one.

And honestly, as of right now, the "was it Belichick or was it Brady?" question is leaning really hard toward Brady.

Fun BB fact.  In 20 years, there are only 2 exceptions where he didn't draft defense or a lineman in the first round.  Maroney and Harry.  BB probably drafts a hog molly lol.

I agree with all of that.

Belichick's draft history isn't all Belichick. In the early years, it was as much Scott Pioli as Bill.

I mean I am interested.   I doubt BB is trade in to the top 10 interested for Mac Jones. 

I mean there was a reason Tom Brady was a 6th rounder.    There were reasons BB passed on him 5 rounds in a row too.  Brady is a unicorn.   People always defy the odds.  But the odds are the odds for a reason. 

If not him then someone else will take him. Jones is a legit NFL quarterback candidate and in our system would be very good. He dismantled the Buckeyes and it wasn't as close as the score made it appear. Jones was great that game and his talent around him wasn't that much better than what Fields had. The hunt for the next Mahomes has really skewed QB evaluations.

Its been proven time and time again the job of both GM and Head Coach is just too much for any individual over the long run. 

I think Matt Rhule has figured that out too.

If you read what college coach Matt Rhule said he'd want as an NFL coach and compare it to the statements he's made since actually getting the job, it definitely seems he's learned just how difficult the job really is.

      The other draft picks have turned out pretty well. Brooks will too.

      Updated 2025 draft order

      I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.
