yes please, someone draft Brady Gustafson in the first round, surely this time drafting a super tall white QB will work out

Mitch Leidner is the funniest QB prospect this year because Mel Kiper had him rated in the first round at the start of the season, while anybody who has watched him play football for 5 minutes knows he's complete irredeemable trash

Are we ready to crown Lamar Jackson the best prospect since Andrew Luck?

if you mean Michael Vick, sure, and it literally does not matter because he's got a full year before being draft eligible so shut the gently caress up Kirios!

Is this draft class bad/shallow enough that a team would give their first for AJ McCarron?

If only FCS players were eligible for the draft, nobody would still give up a first-round for AJ McCarron

Turns out I work with someone who's father was Jabrill Peppers' high school coach and housed Peppers for a year or two. Apparently his family are a bunch of scum bags, which is hilarious considering I just saw a rotoworld blurb about how his mom is sending out these huge packets of questions to vet future agents.

When he was at Don Bosco or when he was at Paramus Catholic? I can't imagine that a guy from Paramus would ever look down on a family from East Orange. :v:

Is Jake Butt actually going to be drafted or is he just a funny as gently caress name?

He's been Michigan's most consistent offensive weapon for the past few years so I'd imagine he'll get a look.

Mitch Trubisky seems to be getting the high-riser treatment that always happens before a QB gets taken top 5.

Can he succeed with such a poo poo name? The only Mitch to ever make a Pro Bowl was Mitch Berger and he was a loving punter.

There will be 3 or 4 runningbacks no one has considered that will do better than either of those two, because that is how NFL running backs work.

Ray Lawry from ODU, although he's a junior this year and I don't think he's declared for the draft yet so who knows if he will.

Daltos...

I'm someone that follows college football and the NFL draft very well, and I came across something this evening that shocked me.

Bleacher Report (yes, yes, but read on)'s Matt Miller has QB Josh Allen, of Wyoming, going third overall to the Bears. I...admittedly have watched zero of him. At all. Mind giving me some thoughts as to why he's justified to go within the top 3?

each sentence in this post is funnier than the last

they are so desperate to put a white dude at the front of the qb class it's staggering

Nate Peterman is not good, and won't be any better than Savage at the pro level, with a signficantly weaker arm to boot. They shouldn't waste a pick on him

I have noooooooooooooo idea what anybody sees in Peterman to justify the amount of times I've read his name in regards to the draft.

Nope.

In an obvious self-brag I called Wentz back in January going in the top 15 and people asked me if I was serious. Goff held the #1 pretty much all year with Wentz being in the top 100 due to the FCS dominance of NDSU. Remember that Wentz was heavily injured that year and didn't have the greatest of seasons either. Besides that you easily had guys like Paxton Lynch holding the #1 or #2 spot all year due to stupid FBS hype.

Then once the draft process hit it really looked like Goff ran away with the show in the combine. Then again Hackenberg also performed well in the throwing drills, but I digress.

Paxton Lynch went to Memphis, lets not pretend he was the product of a powerhouse school with all eyes on it.

Carson Wentz started 1 and a half seasons at NDSU

Number 1's for each year, in reverse order

Paxton Lynch 59

Bryan Bennett 60

Logan Thomas 60

Tyler Bray 59

Brandon Weeden 59

Colin Kaepernick 59

Levi Brown 56

John Parker Wilson 58

Paul Smith 57

clearly this is the most relevant factor when determining who is the best QB in the draft

I think you also have to factor in the racial issue with the Mixon scenario.

Would the media and tff white posters be harping on his incident if he was white?

I think anyone honest with themselves knows the answer to that.

So when I see tff posters keep bringing it up to denigrate the young man it just seems well... bigoted.
