That Bulbasaur one is a legitimate flaw.

Mayfield is a man who plans ahead and has the foresight to pick the starter that has an advantage vs the first 3 gyms.

The three starting Pokemon were the difficulty levels of the original Pokemon. Bulbasaur matched up well against the first few gym leaders and then by the time you were in the middle of the game you had other Pokemon to fight with outside of your starter. Squirtle is medium since he's good against Brock and just okay against Mistie, and then of course Charmander gets rocked by Mistie and is thus the hardest initial difficulty. I don't want a QB that takes the easy way out.

Hypothetically, if there was a player in the draft who could kick 70 yard field goals with 100% accuracy, and all lesser ranges at 100%, would you draft him #1 overall? Unless you turn the ball over you score on nearly every drive.

Of course you would. Then you'd go all out on returners and special teams to get you in his range as often as possible.

I'm more interested in the punter who perfectly punts the ball out of bounds at the one from 65 yards away and in.

Take the touchback and you only need 22 yards. Invest in a good running game, and an elite defense and I think you could go somewhere.

Benne posted:You just described the Ravens I was just thinking about the Browns because we will never get a good QB no matter what. Also, not to talk FF, but that kicker would likely be the number one fantasy pick too because long FG's are worth 5 points, he would be the most consistent scorer, maybe only a QB in a 6 PT Passing TD league would be worth more.

So basically the Browns and Phil Dawson where he's the leader in points scored over a decade and the only one who could put any points on the board at all for like a 5 year stretch.

Has anybody watched games on Quenton Nelson? Supposed to be the best OG prospect. How does he rank up against past OG prospects? How steep is the fall after him?

JIZZ DENOUEMENT posted:Has anybody watched games on Quenton Nelson? Supposed to be the best OG prospect. How does he rank up against past OG prospects? Absolutely tremendous run blocker. Decent enough pass blocker. Kelly liked using pin down blocks to hide blocking schemes with him and McGlinchey. They're both drive blockers and Nelson is superbly athletic which means he pulls a lot for the Irish, so basically he pass blocks by trying to drive and pin his guy into the center or tackle. That would either open up a lane for Winbush or give Kizer extra time last year. A lot of teams ask their guards to stand up and fight to maintain pockets since run first QBs are less common in the NFL, so he might be more of a zone blocker at the next level. He's absurdly strong and quick, plus he has super long arms for a guard, but he doesn't like to let his guy move once he starts driving so he might get a bunch of holds til he acclimates. In terms of sheer athleticism he's one of the best to come out in years. David DeCastro or Mike Pouncey were probably the last huge first round class interior linemen to come out. Warmack and Martin were both draft darlings too but they were never as big as Nelson. If you offered me DeCastro or Nelson coming out I'd have to think for a long while. Nelson is just super intriguing just because the sky's the limit for him. He's gigantic, quick, and has a really cool wrestling stance he comes out of when he's picking up blockers. I like him.

He threw a really bad pick six when he failed to read a FS dropping into shallow coverage. His offensive line was good enough in pass protection but he gave up two costly fumbles on the strip sacks. Basically he looked good throwing but didn't win the game for them, if that makes sense. Not exactly a terrible performance and not one that'll sink him, but not something you want to see when A QB prospect is up against a really good defense.

Yeah I only saw the stat line and figured it wasn't his best game. I was mostly curious if he performed bad enough to fall clearly below Rosen.

Someone is going to get a superstar punter in Michael Dickson. Former aussie rules guy turned longhorn who just had the most dominant bowl game punting performance ever basically. Ray guy award winner as well

I was referring more to the consensus among draft experts. Rosen is QB1 for sure imo. Looking forward to watching Mayfield on Monday

What's with the Mayfield/Manziel comparisons? Baker's only transgressions are saying gently caress you to some players who wouldn't shake his hand and celebrating a win by planting a flag on his opponent's field, right?

He got arrested and slammed to the ground trying to run from the cops on a drunk and disorderly sometime last off season, but I think that's about it. So he's done some on field things with more swagger than some people prefer and got drunk and in trouble, but I don't think there's a string of partying pictures out there and to my knowledge he hasn't yet abused his girlfriend (of course Johnny hadn't either by the draft). He's also a little undersized, known to freelance and has won a Heisman I guess, but the on-field comparisons are a stretch. Baker's got a better arm--although not elite it's plenty good enough--and though OU has more talent than most people they play I don't see a Mike Evans on that team bailing Mayfield out whenever he throws a jump ball.

Okay. At least he has some, typical college, off field event for people to point at. With the on-field character complaints alone it sounded like old men furious at the fact that some football player in his 20s isn't a robot. Am I wrong in thinking this is the best QB class since 2012? Even if Darnold is a bust Mayfield, Rosen, and Jackson seem like they all have legitimate shots at being franchise QBs.

Jackson and Mayfield are both unconventional prospects. We have no idea where they'll be drafted. They could both be gone by 12 or both hang around until the early second round and I wouldn't be surprised either way. I think when the combine rolls around and we see the measurables, everyone is going to fall in love with Jackson (he will test off the charts) and a worry about Mayfield (small hands, won't blow anyone away with his times).
