No one reach for Malik Willis like I thought they would; 2013 was similar. But it doesn't sound like it's one of those drafts.

The rough consensus is that currently there are 4 qbs worth gambling a first on. There is some variance in where draft ins are valuing the bottom 2 of those 4; Levis and Richardson. Then there’s a second tier some discussion of the qb prospects from Tennessee and Stanford.

Our right tackle is almost as lovely too. They're going to get Mahomes killed one day. On that subject, Mahomes DID get injured on this second one AND it cost them the game against the Bengals. That was the biggest moment of the game and he loving blew it.

Ornery and Hornery posted:The rough consensus is that currently there are 4 qbs worth gambling a first on. There is some variance in where draft ins are valuing the bottom To be clear, the only 1 of the 4 where I question if they would’ve been QB1 last year is Richardson. And that’s something I can be talked into pretty easily. On early read, this class looks a lot like 2018 to me. There’s a depth of like 4 dudes that meet what I would call the minimum standard. None of them are an obvious 1 in quite the way 2021 was. None of them inspire me to think there are absolutely more the 3-4 who can be franchise guys. In many ways, this is just a better version of last years class where the fits are probably going to doom 2-3 of these guys and lock in 1 as a franchise guy because of how weird they are. Some early teasers: - Bryce Young would probably be the clear QB1 if he was 3 inches taller and more comfortable ripping his vertical balls. This is probably a matter of having Jamo/Metchie for a year and then having to adjust his game to not having that. - CJ Stroud would probably be a clear QB1 if he ever looked comfortable making pre-snap reads in short field situations or feeling easy yards with his feet/non sideline check downs. You should not be able to fool a 2 year starter with cover 2 invert or bringing the house when he frequently gets a chance to cheat his reads with all the jet and orbit motion that offense allows. - Will Levis would be a clear QB1 if he ever showed he could read consistently post-snap or feel pressure. He’s mechanically amazing when healthy and unpressured, but he has no feel for his edges and loses receivers in space when they go over the middle which shows a lack of recognition or trust in timing route. - Anthony Richardson could be a clear QB1 if he ever showed any semblance of touch or technique downfield or any consistent ability to read when a coverage shell rotates/spins/inverts/disguises. The most easily fooled guy post snap because he couldn’t execute Mullen’s reduced professions or Napiers PA checks without just giving up and calling his own number. All wildly different dudes with varying strengths, but you will get a real Rorschach test of everyone’s coaching staff as to what type of project they swing on and what they want to do.

But yeah, if you’ve been paying attention, last year’s was like a rare kind of bad and even an average class would’ve been miles ahead. Also a great draft if you believe you can spend a 4th rounder on a 26 year old and finally develop that missing part of his game! (Ignoring all the other missing parts)

Is Bryce Young’s lack of bulk likely to reduce the chance he hits his ceiling? Kid can make all the throws, but he’s literally a string bean. Kyler and Russ are similar heights but they’re much bulkier so I worry that he’s going to be murdered by a free rusher Giants aren’t in play for a top QB in this class but it also seems like there’s no big receiver prospects like the last three years either. I’d like for them to keep piling on the edge or DL or LB

That’s his point, everything right now is just smoke, you can’t take any of it seriously. These guys are going to rise and fall continually as pro days, senior bowls, the combine, and good old fashioned leaks happen. I’d be surprised if at least 3 guys don’t go in the first but there’s no way I’d be willing to bet on which order.

Mayer for the Packers I guess? This is a hard team to evaluate which position they'll take in the draft given a lot of its "need" positions are also positions the team has recently addressed or has promising projects at. I suppose we could always draft another ultra-raw edge rusher who will need 4 years to develop.

My guess is that Seattle will sign Geno to a 3 year deal that they can get out of after 2. Draft Richardson with the 2nd 1st round pick or trade back and draft him with the tradeback pick. Have him sit behind geno for 1-2 years and then have him take over. I am somewhat down with this plan if they can get an impact defender with their top 5 pick (lets ride)

If you're an NFL team looking at JSN you have to wonder whether he is just prone to mysterious injuries that sideline him for weeks, or if he was just milking a minor injury to eliminate the risk of a more serious one. I'd be curious to see what the OSU medical staff tells any NFL teams that ask about him.

Unbelievably talented draft at the top, super shallow throughout except for CBs and DLine. I don't know how some of these WRs are sneaking into the first round right now. I only really like Johnston, Boutte, and Addison. JSN seems like just a guy without Olave and Wilson pulling a ton of coverage off of him. Hyatt is a product of non stop go routes. Stroud should be the clear cut #1. When he's on he's the most accurate QB I've seen in years. Tons of tough passes that he laces on a dime. Same size and speed as Levis without the extra 3 years of growth. Bryce Young has a phenomenal arm for someone his size. Makes it look effortless. Alabama lies about his size, he's tiny. Looks like a high schooler in the huddle. Has Bill O'Brien dragging him to hell. Could definitely see his run game putting him ahead of Stroud but I really dislike drafting guys who'll fall apart in 5 years like Mayfield. The Dline this year is absurd. Best in years, don't even know what to compare it to. Carter, Bresee, Murphy, Ojulari, WAJ, Andre Carter, Foskey, Wilson, Verse, Nolan Smith. All of them could go top 25 or top 15 easily. Best player in the draft is probably Michael Mayer. Same deal as Pitts a couple years ago. Absolutely dominant receiving threat. Could probably play him as a Z. Underrated blocker like Pitts too. He's not quite as dominant after the catch but he's always open. Great hands and strength behind it, kind of a Mike Evans build on contested catches. Don't see how you take him over Stroud or Young though without having a revolt. Kincaid also could be had for a little bit cheaper if the draft was tomorrow. You get the same receiving talent with the one year wonder risk attached. Bijan Robinson would probably be the #1 pick in the draft 20 years ago. Big, deliberate runner with good burst. Sheds tackles with ease, even when squared up. Criminally underused too so he's coming into the league fresh. Decent out of the backfield too. Can pass block a bit. I just feel like he's a dancer behind the line. Would love it if he actually ran forward and he might be a little boom or bust at the next level. Jahmyr Gibbs is probably the second back off the board but would be the first if he wasn't a liability blocking. Saquon like talent catching out of the backfield. One of the fastest guys in the draft probably. Actually hits the hole too, kind of like Mixon out of shotgun. I think he gets dumped a bit too easily on tackles though. Bama didn't use him at all if they needed to go max protect. Speaking of Bama their CB duo will probably both go top 50. Kelee Ringo is the premier DB this draft. Freak athlete that can stick to anyone in man coverage. Probably the fastest guy in the draft and is the same size as Joey Porter Jr. Lost a season to a torn labrum but came back pretty strong. Gets to jam a lot in Georgia's system and he's real good at it.

Doltos posted:JSN seems like just a guy without Olave and Wilson pulling a ton of coverage off of him. I don't know about this, he had 15 catches, 347 yards, and 3 TDs in the Rose Bowl last year without either Wilson or Olave playing. And whenever just one of them missed a game JSN seemingly absorbed their numbers. It's a shame that he sat out this season, since this was supposed to be his big coming out party and instead that basically went to Marvin Harrison Jr.
