It's getting worse every year as more people latch on to the draft trying to make it more than it is. Tik Tok is insufferable with all the draftniks just sayin poo poo, talking heads all over media are changing their opinions every day unabashedly, and click bait articles rule supreme on the internet and here in TFF.

It's literally just reading out names for 2 hours but now we get people actively trying to ruin prospects money earning potential or spending the entire draft talking about tragedy in prospects lives. It's despicable.

Stroud is so incredible at throwing the balls with surgical accuracy!!!

I feel like “s-tier elite at getting the ball to the receiver” should mean that a quarterback is good at their job but to be fair I am not a galaxy brain S2 tester

I mean look not going to defend the test because lol it's almost assuredly bullshit

But big picture, there are plenty of QB's who are accurate as poo poo and will never make it to or in the league.

Accuracy doesn't mean poo poo if you can't quickly diagnose what is going on infront of you, you have generally like ~2 seconds to parse what is happening, find open recievers and then you can throw the ball, all while also needing to make sure a lineman isn't about to kill you.

The Benefit of Ohio state, is that, the receivers are almost always loving open.

The amount of "content" really is insane. My phone literally ran out of space* this morning because of all the backlogged draft related podcast episodes I was never going to get through. Especially from The Athletic. I love Mays and the Athletic but my god, they are putting out like 3 draft episodes a day and there just isn't that much useful poo poo to be said. Then multiply this by every other media outlet doing the same, not even getting into random Twitter/TikTok/YouTube bros.

Nobody move and nobody gets hurt.

Hard to imagine some team trading up to that spot without being sure their chosen QB would be there. I would've guessed if the trade-down happened it would happen on the clock.

I was sitting in my office on that drizzly afternoon listening to the monotonous staccato of rain on my desk and reading my name on the glass of my office door: regnaD kciN

I know it seems obvious that the #1 pick is going to be the QB everyone is talking about, but I’m not so sure. I’ve read that Brian Drew has gotten over his injury in the off-season and can bench around 400 now, that speaks highly that he’s in the best shape of his career. Would it be that crazy for the GM to go with a personal pick instead, say like Vontae Mack? His tape especially in the OSU / Wisconsin game is really impressive, 4 sacks in the first three quarters. I still have hope that somehow Ray Jennings falls far enough for him to play for the same team as his dad, that would just be cool.

Doing this for Levis, whose ceiling is Ryan Tannehill, would be amazing.

Won’t be shocked if they try for AR though. Swinging at Willis tells me they want in on the new meta.
