00:00For the Patriots in round one, what would be your best-case scenario

00:03and what would be your worst-case scenario?

00:07Best-case scenario would probably be one of Abdul Carter or Travis Hunter

00:10falling to four.

00:13And I think, you know, they're really picking three, right?

00:17So it's really because the Titans can't work, that's done.

00:19And the Patriots obviously would not be in a quarterback market.

00:22I guess the only other – I, in my own brain, kind of land on the Patriots

00:28taking one of Abdul Carter, Travis Hunter, and Will Campbell.

00:31That's where I have landed.

00:33It's not that I have their draft board.

00:34I'm just using my own sort of instincts and the positional need

00:38and where I have these players rated.

00:40So the number of outcomes I've considered is pretty low.

00:42It's two kind of.

00:44So I guess by default that makes worst-case scenario not one of those guys

00:46being available.

00:47But, you know, Will Campbell is the fifth player on my board.

00:50Like I don't feel like this is some, you know, catastrophic –

00:53that would be some sort of catastrophic event or reality for the Patriots

00:57if that's how things fall.

00:59Like it's a huge need for the Patriots and I think is a darn good player.

01:04So, you know, maybe the worst-case scenario I think is probably, you know,

01:08winning that game in Week 18 where you're in this setup just in the first place,

01:12right?

01:13But, you know, that's long behind us.

01:15I don't think that within the contract of where they are

01:18and what I think is likely to happen, there's some terrible outcome here.
