[QUOTE="eetech, post: 283910, member: 1924"] I think this is the exact opposite of what has made the Patriots successful. The Patriots do not "know talent when they see it", just like every other NFL team. The difference is that Belichick knows that he doesn't know talent when he sees it. Unlike every other egoistic idiot running a front office in the NFL, Belichick recognizes that predicting NFL success based on college play is pretty much impossible. And his drafting strategy is based around this knowledge. His strategy is to trade high value picks for multiple low value picks, because since he cannot predict who will be successful, he'd rather have a lot of options to choose from, and then is ruthless about cutting anyone who he feels will not be able to make it. It amazes me that no one else in the NFL follows this strategy especially considering that Belichick has proven that it's a way to build a consistently successful team (once you have certain key cogs, such as QB, in place).
