I think he's garbage poo poo. He's got athleticism and he can keep plays alive to dart balls but his deep ball is atrocious and his decision making is awful.

Sounds like my kinda QB

The QB we deserve but not the one we need

The real clickbait juice is La Canfora projecting six QBs in round one, including JJ at 2:

1. Caleb Williams, Chicago
2. JJ McCarthy, Washington
3. Jayden Daniels, Giants
4, Drake Maye, Vikings
13. Michael Penix Jr., Las Vegas
30. Bo Nix, Denver

I can't read the article. What compensation would the Broncos get to drop back? I love the idea and getting Bo Nix at 30 would be dope.

Brisco has the Pats trading down with the Giants, the Giants then taking Maye and the Patriots JJ after trading back. That's a very elegant solution. (For what it's worth he ALSO has the Chargers taking JC Latham, and the Eagles trading up for Terrion with the the Broncos trading back and getting Nix at 22). He also has Jaden Hicks in the first round, which would surprise me.

I'm starting to become convinced that 6 QBs in the first round is at least possible. With the Bears, Commanders, Patriots, Raiders, Broncos, Vikings and potentially the Giants looking for a QB, that leaves one odd man out UNLESS the Giants or Patriots decide not to go that direction.

plz plz plz

The Broncos will draft the first RB and it will be in the 3rd

there's a rumor out there that higgins and sutton could very well be on the move tonight. makes a lot of sense to me. avoids the what-seems inevitable mess that will be higgins vs the bengals, and helps explain how payton satisfies his need to move up.

please Payton trade the gently caress down please

Yeah I think JJ and Penix can actually be decent starters in the NFL if they hit near their maximium percentile outcome.

If Bo Nix hits his maximium I think he is like Gardner Minshew?

That sounds loving amazing for the Broncos

I think Bo Nix being aged like a fine wine is better because he's more mature and likelier to respond positively to Sean Payton's horrific machinations.

I think he's going to have like 70% accuracy in Payton's system that he set up for Russ sucking rear end and everyone will finally realize the QB accuracy stat doesn't matter

I just read this article: https://theathletic.com/5448295/2024/04/26/broncos-bo-nix-sean-payton/?source=freedailyemail&campaign=601983&userId=12901618

This bit specifically gets me curious:

quote:

Some things about Nix stood out immediately. His completion rate of 77.45 percent last season set an FBS record. The offense at Oregon called for a healthy diet of bubble screens and other throws near the line of scrimmage that allowed playmakers to operate in space. So Payton and Broncos general manager George Paton directed the team�s analytics staff to build a model that removed those short throws from the data set of every quarterback in the class. When the numbers bounced back � Payton didn�t share exact filters of the search � they showed Nix at or near the top of the class in efficiency with intermediate and deep routes.

I know there are tools out there - is this something we can replicate to see what he's seeing, if it's bullshit or not?

Dexo posted:

It's not bullshit, but it's misleading.

He like Mac Jones and other college QBs have absurdly high "efficiency" deep and intermediate because he just never tries to loving throw it if it's not WAO.

Thank you. I felt something was off about that but I couldn't put my finger on it.

"Tricking" a team you would only play every 3-4ish years (and not this year) to give extra picks to a team you are playing this year (and many other years) seems like a very bad decision making process.

Who cares its the Jets lol

spending a number 12 overall pick on a third string quarterback is what's known as going "bears mode"

I love draft grades because it's the dumbest garbage and they are always funny. How can anyone look the bears being consensus best boys at drafting by virtue of having #1 and 9# overall while completely handwaving the punter pick in the 4th round and say yep this is a very serious and meaningful endeavour.

Um have you seen other teams spend their 1sts?? Not even this draft in particular but historically speaking there's no guarantees.

Article had some "wtf" moments but was a cool insight into the drafting process nonetheless. At least they weren't reading tea leaves though I'm not sure that's worse.

it's good Bo Nix had football related stuff in his bag instead of say, a movie theater box of Milk Duds and a Glock.

on the other hand, he could've had weird sex stuff and a lot of dollar bills. I'd give him high marks for that.
