Checking up on the Rams if the packing tape Stafford is held together with falls apart.... I'm just now learning that Stetson Bennett went AWOL right before the season started last year and we haven’t heard from him since? How have I not heard this story

This is a suspiciously researched, sensible, and plausible draft. I think the only even-modest critique I have is that I think Jags would take Thomas Jr. in that situation. Which would have some modest ripples through the rest of the draft.

If rams are trading into the top ten it’s for a LT or a WR.

9 is a bit of an awkward spot I suppose, but if any of the top tier receivers are there I would absolutely stick and pick if I were the Bears. One being there or not almost totally depends on whether the Giants go QB or WR. And whether the Vikings successfully trade up, I suppose.

Yeah if I’m the bears I’m taking one of the elite WRs or Alt/Olu.

The Falcons being willing to trade down wouldn't surprise me either, given their specific needs which they could probably get to a bit later.

I always enjoy her spots on the Athletic podcast. She seems very genuine (which doesn’t necessarily mean she’s very accurate of course). Like she was talking about the challenges of maintaining all these relationships and constantly having to collect info. She told a story about scrambling to answer a call from an NFL team executive while in the pool with her kid for swim lessons and all the other parents looking at her like WTF lady???

JJ is simultaneously overrated and underrated. He's overrated by some because 1) Michigan won the natty (intangibles!!!!!), 2) he showed really well at the combine (measureables!!!!), and 3) although Harbaugh didn't want Michigan to throw very much, JJ occasionally ripped off a highlight pass between defenders that required velocity, timing, and perfect accuracy. He has one throw The play that He's underrated by some because 1) he threw half as much as the other guys, 2) he totally gagged in the National Semi against TCU two years ago, and 3) he looks like he is 14 years old, with a ridiculous pompadour haircut and a big stupid grin. In reality, his advanced stats are pretty good, he's pretty cool under pressure, he's got a pretty good arm, he's bigger than he looks, and he could be good or he could suck. Because of the way Harbaugh used him, he's more of an enigma than most QB prospects.

predicto posted:JJ is simultaneously overrated and underrated. I think this sums it up well. He's all potential at the moment is the big issue. He generally took what defenses gave him and played well, some bone headed throws every now and then. He's got no touch and his timing on middle of the field seams and sideline routes is off. I think that's fixable if he just practices it, and he'll definitely get more opportunities than Harbaugh gave him.

Ornery and Hornery posted:I thought Russini was a bad/inaccurate Twitter follow. Is that incorrect? At ESPN Russini was plugged in enough to get occasional scoops, especially when it came to the Titans, but she wasn't their lead insider so she didn't really need to be Always Breaking News. Her transition to The Athletic as their main insider has been kind of rocky — she had decent news nuggets in her in-season columns, the type of thing you might see from a guy like Albert Breer or Peter King, but she seemingly tried to do more of a Schefter/Rapoport-level insider thing during free agency and it kind of flopped. My read is that she's got a handful of solid sources but is straining her limits by trying to be a person with Breaking News-level intel on almost every team in the league. I wouldn't dismiss what she says out of hand but I might take it with a bit of a grain of salt unless it's a team she's historically reported accurately on

The bears only have 4 picks, it'd be weird if they weren't trying to flip 9. Giants, please don't gift the pats a half dozen picks for Maye.

Also pumped to hear the Bears are actively trying to trade down (and might make an exception if one of the WRs falls to them). That was my preferred approach all along but I took Poles at face value when he talked about being happy to stay put at 9, because he said the same thing last year and basically followed through on it. I can't believe I was dumb enough to get fooled by a GM lying during the pre-draft process

Aiyuk is very good, but if you're at #2 WR in the draft levels of picking, I'd just stay and pick the guy (Nabers/Odunze) instead of trading and paying $100m to a guy coming from the San Fran scheme
