Play from 4:07[4:07]" I am now that featured press box and I found Paul Perillo is going to get a full analysis on the day the start with the trade. You know coming well I think most of us you know we saw us and number seven we thought it might make sense to try to get down a little bit to know how far down they can go but certainly the value at that seventh it was just kind of wars and everybody. This allowed them to get a need player. As well as getting down a lot of friends every few bucks yeah I think trade would certainly something that was expect. And -- drive and am fitting end to linebacker corps here I really like this play a lot and I notes -- people weren't necessarily as hire him -- experts had him at the end of the first round but milk -- junior who I think is one of being you know more you know in tune in touch guys. Talk to him Keith rivers being basically the same guy -- very equal everybody thought Keith rivers was top ten player. And for some prisoner by doctor rod mail was pointed twenty to thirty guys latter -- first round so. I kinda had gotten back in my mind I had to study did a lot of different things in Tennessee. But he put an inside yeah outside abreast of the guy kind of it was that we tend to associate with patriots defenders. This is actually the first -- the draft in the first round since 1999 big cat Andy Katz and Moyer are your thoughts on that well I mean. Certainly the highest. Politics highest priority linebacker. Took one birthday so after all of that -- that's where and right now I'm happy it worked out well obviously. I think injuries had a lot but certainly. The patriots needed to get younger and faster at linebacker this is a guy and allows -- to. And the draft in general first round -- think it's -- to our. Well you know it's funny it's all about and I thought the first you know eight or ten pixie yeah even with the trades mixed in there. Certainly predicted you know most most of the guys went right around we thought it was going to go -- and also -- stretch there in the middle Whitney and where teams really -- picks and Chris Johnson for -- it's point four how they didn't take a wide receiver I don't know but you know. Basically when when the -- comes out in the end the guys that that is supposed to be in the first round ended up going in the first thanks."
