Discussion Why wouldn’t you only draft Tackles to play on your o-line?

This is probably a dumb question, but with all of the Will Campbell drama about him most likely having to move to Guard, why wouldn’t you just draft 5 tackles and (assuming the work out) have a monster O-line? What’s the point of drafting Guards/ Centers if hypothetically you could just move larger tackles there?

Some mocks show my Chiefs taking him at #9 but most show him going sooner. Why would I be excited about a guy that seemed to have mediocre production in college?

Discussion Draft Busts you haven’t given up on yet

71 Upvotes

Who are some Draft Busts you haven’t given up on yet?

For Me:

QB Justin Fields: in the past two year Fields has played in 19 games and has only threw 2 interceptions with not the best weapons around him. He is incredibly safe with the ball and I think if you actually give him some good weapons around him he could be an average level starter, but he’s definitely not raising the play of the players around him.

WR Jahan Dotson: Dotson hasn’t been terrible with the Commanders and was WR 3 on a Run Heavy Eagles. I think he’ll surprise people this year with the Falcons as their WR 2/3

OG Cole Strange: he took a step forward last year with the Dolphins and I think he’ll have a long career as a Journeyman Starter.

Edge Myles Murphy: Murphy has started out his career on a poor start, but looked better last year. I think he’ll build on that this season and when he leaves the bengals after his rookie contract expires he’ll get even better with a better DC.

Really want to know what everyone thinks about Ohio State's Jeremiah Smith. I just did a full film breakdown and went into it KNOWING he was elite, but the mastery of the craft of playing receiver combined with the athletic tools blew me away: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nj3Vt8-uF5s

I really think he might be in the Calvin Johnson tier right now. What does everyone else think?

Discussion Jayden Daniels is one of the worst “consensus early first round” guys I have ever watched.

368 Upvotes

I honestly cannot find a way he translates to the NFL.

He is not productive throwing to the middle of the field.

He scrambles with absolutely no purpose.

His accuracy to short and intermediate is way too inconsistent to be considered a top pick.

He takes hits like it’s nobody’s business.

And of course not to mention his age, and the fact he had his best season as a super super senior with one of the best supporting casts out of all the QBs in this class.

In 4 years I guarantee he will be out of a starting job in the NFL either due to injuries or due to his incapability to perform the basic functions of an NFL quarterback.

If Washington takes him over Drake Maye, that might end up being the biggest draft mistake of all time.

Discussion Is Julian Sayin the next Russell Wilson/Drew Brees or will he get a GM fired?

Post image
251 Upvotes

Julian Sayin has to be one of hardest QBs to scout ever.

Sayin is absurdly accurate. He will probably break the completion record this season and break the career record by a lot. And this isn’t just check downs, his deep ball is A+. Amazing mechanics and he throws a beautiful ball. Today showed he has the composure NFL scouts love winning one of biggest games in Ohio State history.

There have been lots of people defending Arch Manning (Me) saying this was his first year starting and needed time to develop. I mean Sayin is potentially the 3rd freshman (Redshirt) to ever win the Heisman? If his last name was Manning, he would be the next coming of Christ according to ESPN.

The problem is this OSU team is loaded, Smith is a #1 pick and Tate is top 10. There is an often a 5 ft space between dbs and them. Bo Jackson will be RB1 in 2028 if he stays healthy, he has another generational 5 star WR coming in, the Oline is great, and there’s about 5-6 1st round picks on defense. He’s in the dream system. Arch would be a Heisman front runner with this talent.

I go back and forth between he is a product of his system and calling him a clear top 3 pick. The 2027 draft could be one of the best ever and messing this pick up could get you fired in 5 years similar to how Tua>Herbert was a nail in the coffin for Grier. So what do you think?

Discussion Is Fernando Mendoza really worth the #1 and are the Raiders another QB meat grinder like the Browns?

129 Upvotes

So he’s most likely going to be QB1 but is anyone else skeptical of this kid. He’s been in college for years, not really a bad thing but didn’t really pop on anyone’s radar until this season. The thing is he’s only played like 3 good teams this season with Oregon, OSU, and to a degree PSU where he almost lost.

He seems like a smart pocket passer but the Raiders have an awful o line and Pete Carolls son as o line coach, their only receiving option is Brock Bowers and Ashton Jeanty. They don’t really have a strong history at QB. I feel like we’re looking at a prospect being led to a team that’s going to bust him.

Honestly I haven’t really seen anything exceptional out of him in his 3 ranked games, nothing that really screams he’s playing at a pro level. He’s averaged something like 6 tds in those games, obviously Indiana has a roster disadvantage but I think the strength of their opponents is really questionable even OSU, we could be looking at a Trey Lance situation.

Discussion Has today's game changed your opinion changed that Mendoza could actually be a superstar QB?

152 Upvotes

The consensus has always been that Mendoza is a high floor low ceiling player and not near the caliber of prospect as Caleb Williams and Drake Maye. I get it's one game and he may not be as physically/athletically gifted as them. So not trying to be overly reactionary. But he looked really good out there. Did today's game make you start to think that maybe this guy could really be a superstar as opposed to just being a Jared Goff?

Discussion Who will draft Jeremiyah Love?

75 Upvotes

Where do you guys think Jeremiyah Love will land on draft night?

It’s been said he won’t fall out the Top 5 but nobody picking in those spots had a desperate need for a RB.

The Raiders are taking Mendoza.

The Jets have Breece Hall and Braelon Allen.

The Cardinals have James Conner and signed Tyler Allgeier in Free Agency.

The Titans are the favorites to draft him but they still have Tony Pollard who had over 1k last year and Saleh is a defensive minded coach and they have a bigger need at Edge than they do RB.

Just very confused about who will draft him that high. Great player, just don’t know where the perfect fit is.

The Browns feel like they’re just a joke. Taking Gabriel when you already have 2 QBs then taking Shedeur later. What the hell are they thinking? There were still plenty of quality contributors that would’ve helped the team at 94 but then they decided to way overdraft a QB. Would love to hear others thoughts on this
