Doltos posted:Well that website darkforce made for the draft podcasts I want to do (seriously, they blow with just one person, I need someone to talk football with on one of em) could also be used as a click-baiting draft site. I can throw any mock up there and make it dumb enough that a million draft fans will click on it to share with their friends about how dumb it is. After joining TFF I've realized that I don't know enough about football to hold a conversation with at least half of the goons here. I just don't have the time to read all of the articles and statistics you guys sift through.

Yeah I think most people maybe know a lot about the particular team they follow and not that much about anything else. So don't worry about it.

If you want to look smart just say that Johnny Manziel is the best QB in the draft

Just constantly refer back to "watching the game tape" whenever making an assertion, even if it's really "I once saw a youtube highlight video"

If I had time or comedic ability, I'd make an "aesthetics and name strength" draft where numbers are thrown out and players are ranked on looks, bubble butts, and cool names.

I keep an open mind when I evaluate prospects unless your name is Tahj Boyd. My vertical would be unmeasurable by the naked eye.

Former Bears GM Jerry Angelo suggests the Eagles trade Foles ("and Barkley if they want him") for a top 4 pick + a 2nd in 2015 so the Eagles can get Manziel.

Holy poo poo, even if you got a top 4 pick + a 2015 1st I think it's a moronic trade.

I don't. Nick Foles had a crazy high and unsustainable TD:INT ratio. If I could get a top 4 pick, and a 2015 first I would seriously consider it.

That's essentially trading a high level starting QB for two mystery boxes. And you're banking on one of those mystery boxes to be a high level starting QB. Foles is in a great situation this year and even if he regresses to the mean, he'll still get back Maclin and have McCoy and Jackson to carry the load.

He doesn't hate the Raiders secondary though! People wanting the Eagles to get Manziel are the same people who think Chip Kelly is lying about any quarterback fitting his system and that he secretly wants a mobile QB and that he should show us his birth certificate if he has nothing to hide

Oh I'm not saying pick up Manziel. Two First Round picks are just real loving powerful things in the NFL. Then again, so is having a quality starting QB on a rookie deal. I'm not saying I would pull the trigger instantly. I'm saying I would seriously consider it based on what I grade out the other QB's either in free agency(Hahahahaha, then again Josh McCown own zone) or in those first few picks. Then again gently caress Jerry Angelo...

So based on last season's Jets you'd draft Geno Smith possibly first overall. I hope the Giants put him in the front office after the current regime dies eventually.

In the worst QB draft in years Geno still didn't get taken in the first round, and here we have a possibility of three QBs being taken in the first five picks this year

To be fair, at this point in the process last year everyone assumed Geno was a first round pick, possibly the only QB going in the top 10.

Blitz7x posted:Is Bridgewater not? I don't understand why he dropped from a Unanimous first pick It does seem like Bridgewater is being taken for granted. He's the most NFL ready QB in the draft, has excellent command of the field, and seems to be a high character guy, but somehow he becomes the boring pick compared to Bortle's girlfriend and JFF. I'd love for Bridgewater to fall to the Vikings at 8.
