Facebook's "see this date's posts from years before" keep reminding me how hard I was marking for Dak before the Eagles traded up and I'm still a bit about that.

I wanted the Saints to take Dak in the second or third. He was obviously very good because he got god damned Mississippi State to a number 1 ranking.

Now that we're a week out I need to make a database of all the mock drafts so I can look at that next year to remind me how stupid and futile mocks are. Anyone aware of something like this for previous years?

Kalli posted:Funny thing about McCaffrey: McCaffrey's got a huge lower body but no upper body. Hard seeing guys like that stand out early on because they get destroyed in pass blocking. Still a top 50 talent and his run game is intriguing enough to warrant a top 25 selection.

Diva Cupcake posted:Here's Brugler on Dak and Hack last year. The knock that I remember seeing the most on Dak pre draft (and also in that report) was his mediocre pocket presence and how he fell apart under pressure. He had a lot of other positive attributes that translated well to the NFL. When you got plopped on to a team that has the best offensive line and run game in the NFL, those pockets that can get pretty muddy in the NFL clear up pretty quickly. He got to play on a team that would help any rookie qb an incredible amount, but also one that masked his biggest weakness. Who knows how well Dak plays in any other situation last season. Compare that to Hack who does nothing well though and yeah it's hard to justify giving him a higher grade than Dak.

Dak had a dui too which you know leadership upstanding character composing yourself the right way etc It's looking like at least two QBs are going to go before the panthers pick and I just can't see gettleman passing up all those other strong and fatter players for a guy who isn't a physical freak across the board.

Like Chicago, New York, and Cleveland take Trubisky, Watson, and oh I don't know Mahomes in some order. There's going to be somewhere the Panthers can't pass on. Hell, Panthers might be able to trade out of the spot entirely which would be ace. Please don't draft McAffery

He had a lot of other positive attributes that translated well to the NFL. I think a lot of this had to do with how poor the offensive line and receivers were at Mississippi St than his own short comings. The team went from 9-4 his last season to 6-7 this past seasons, and that last win shouldn't have counted since they should not have been bowl eligible with a 5-7 record. Scouts should really start taking into account the talent around these players when watching film.

I guess that's mostly about Joe Mixon but I'm surprised at how many executives are saying he's off their board completely. I didn't think that many teams would have the stones.

McGinnmas is upon us! Glad to see scouts aren't down on Cook. He's a superb one cut runner and tries real hard on every play. Will probably get blown up a lot on pass blocking and have early fumbling problems while he bulks up. Just worried about his shoulder and will probably be the RB who slides. Those scout reviews on Mixon suck. He's not ADP and he gets blown up on pass blocking despite his size and technique. Still a hell of a threat out of the backfield though. Alvin Kamara couldn't break ahead of Hurd or Yeldon. He's just not a very good runner.

Mixon is going to get the Clarett treatment: drafted at the tail end of the third so the news outlets only have a few hours to talk about it before there's another day of drafting to report on. The more negativity that trickles out re: Fournette, the more confident I am that he's the guy Carolina wants.

sean10mm posted:Doltos, who do you see as the most obvious examples of highly rated guys going into this draft who are doomed to failure? Like Hackenberg levels? I think Peppers got the most irrational hype this year in college football but he's also a very good player. Any of the QBs can probably fall under the umbrella since they're all getting a lot of post-season process hype. Worst of the bunch is probably Deshaun Watson who I think is just Geno Smith. Same happy feet problems under pressure, same benefiting from talented WRs who spread the field, same accuracy issues because he can't mimic his good throwing motion throughout the game. Reuben Foster might be JAG and could also have injury issues. I don't like Malik Hooker. I think he's a great ball hawk but doesn't like contact. Also Ohio State's defense was consistently giving Conley, Lattimore, and Hooker easy tip up interceptions this year. Not necessarily a knock but they weren't exactly tested that hard this year against NFL talent. Locked down Godwin and Gesicki but then got beat up by Darboh and Butt. Then the bowl game happened.
