Yeah, there were 3 consecutive years before 2008 where the 1st round QB's were dogshit (Alex Smith, Aaron Rodgers, Jason Campbell, Vince Young, Matt Leinart, Jay Cutler, JaMarcus Russell and Brady Quinn) that goons were super down on taking QB's early.

So 1 extra game a year would have to be unsystematic, right? With two extra games you could play another in-conference rank (so the 1st-ranked teams also play the 2nd-ranked teams), or you could stop playing the same-rank teams and just play another whole division. But I can’t see how you’d fit in just one more game without either having arbitrary differences (like just playing some random other team that you aren’t already playing) or really radically changing the basic setup (like not playing your division twice).

Baker Mayfield was streaming some over the spring and summer. If I remember right Mark Andrews was regularly playing with him.

The move that would make the most sense imo would be to play the team in the opposite conference that you played two years ago that finished in the same rank. Right now you only play a team in the opposing conference once every 4 years, and this would give a few more opportunities for sweet matchups. For example, that'd give us a Patriots-Saints game this year, and Brady has faced Brees three times ever.

So AFC East plays the NFC East this year, and played the NFC South two years ago, so we'd have had:

AFC E vs NFC S
Patriots - Saints
Dolphins - Falcons
Bills - Panthers
Jets - Buccaneers

AFC N vs NFC N
Ravens - Bears
Steelers - Vikings
Browns - Packers
Bengals - Lions

AFC S vs NFC W
Texans - Rams
Colts - Seahawks
Titans - 49ers
Jaguars - Cardinals

AFC W vs NFC E
Chiefs - Cowboys
Chargers - Eagles
Broncos - Washington
Raiders - Giants

So that'd be a pretty good slate of games, and help out parity and whatnot.

Here's the Baltimore Sun article on Ed Reed when he got drafted : https://www.baltimoresun.com/news/bs-xpm-2002-04-21-0204210199-story.html

"ED REED. HE SOUNDS LIKE a partner in a law firm.

Ed Reed?

Isn't he someone's stockbroker?"

also

"Another draft, just another player.

Ed Reed's name had no juice."

Some highlights from the article.

Also "There was no magic yesterday, just Ed Reed"

I more or less thought the same thing way back when. In 2002 it was like "So we just blew up the team and we drafted a safety!?!" But he was one of probably two hall of famers(the other Julius Peppers) in that whole first round. And one of the best and most exciting ever to play the position.

This is gonna be a tough one to answer/qualify because if they went in the first round there's going to be some people who really liked the player enough that it wouldn't really be seen as a "consensually panned" pick. And if the pick gets criticized because it's seen as a massive reach or a bad fit or something, then there's usually going to be a good reason for that. Amazing players usually were high draft picks (and thus had a lot of proponents) or were later-round or UDFAs (and thus weren't "consensually panned").

If Rashan Gary actually turns out good for the Packers, he'll qualify, he was very unpopular as a pick at first and still is among some of the fans.

I took the octopath less travelered,

And it made one-eighth the difference.
Trubs is amazing, in that it's amazing how horrible he is.

Daniel Jones might qualify even though he's mediocre at best right now just for how panned he was.
