The draft

[SHOWTIME15]

I don't really want a QB this year, but Grier is a logical choice. I see plenty of accuracy and zip. I'm not advocating for drafting him, but I think he's light years better than Stidham, Finley, Jackson, etc. I'd take him over Rosen, too.

@ChrisR2223 look at the touchdown at 3:45 and tell me again he has no arm strength...

Again, not saying that I want to draft a QB, but this bodes well for him picking up the offense:

This QB is the most confident man at combine

From Grier's perspective, he'd relish the opportunity to come to the Patriots even if it meant sitting behind Tom Brady for a while.

"I don't really think you can put into words the kind of opportunity [that would be]," he said. "Me and [West Virginia offensive coordinator Jake Spavital] watched a lot of Patriots film and built our offense off a lot of -- obviously a lot of different terminology, but we would see stuff and say, 'We're going to do that.' Tom Brady does all right so we watched a lot of Tom Brady film. The opportunity to learn from a guy like that would obviously be priceless.

Grier added: "We watched a lot of film on them. In 2017 we were very wide-split oriented, which is kind of what Spavs brought to the game at some of the other places he's been that's different. A lot of what we did with the Patriots, we saw they were doing a lot of tighter split stuff. They were getting free releases on guys and working isolations and working diff routes all the way across the field. You get a little more isolation when you bring guys all the way across the field. You don't always get pressed up in that look so it's been interesting to kind of watch how they get guys open underneath. A lot of guys in the Big 12 are in quarters or they're in kind of cloud coverage, deep coverage, and it's hard to get guys open underneath. We watched a lot of their film and kind of picked different things that they were doing to get guys open underneath."

One of the many throws had some zip?
He reminds me of this guy

The guy threw the ball from the -30 to the +10. That's a 70 yard throw. You can't tell me the kid doesn't have arm strength. Now his mechanics might need some work, but he can definitely throw the ball down the field. Besides, arm strength is not must in our offense. I am more concerned with a QB's quick release and ability to read defenses, among other things.

She’s not that pretty. So the question again is - how does she get a TV show?

The people who clicked dislike need to get out more.

Again, not saying that I want to draft a QB, but this bodes well for him picking up the offense:

It also speaks to 1) his work ethic and 2) his understanding of offenses in general, which is always a plus. He may not be as good as Brady in either category, but that quote right there tells me that he has more than Ryan Leaf, Johnny Manziel, or JaMarcus Russell. Except in extreme circumstances your QB needs to have this.

 

[Ochmed Jones]

I do not have a first round grade on any qb in this draft.

Hoyer has starting experience and even win a few games while starting in Cleveland of all places,

Etling has a year in the system and no one is claiming him off our practice squad next year.

There are 4 qb’s in next year’s draft with first round grades and in the 2021 draft is a qb with generational talent should we wisely decide to go zero and 16 in 2020.

You took the time to disparage someone's looks and imply that because of them she has no reason to be on a TV show.

But yeah it's the people who took all the time it took to make the laborious step of clicking on an icon who are not well-adjusted.

I'm so ****ing tired of the typical types who love to talk a big game about free speech and speaking their minds who wilt like a little flower because someone clicked a thumbs down icon.

I’m not “wishing away time”, but I’ll be curious to see how the NFL’s massive bidding war goes down in 2024...

I watched this. I ain’t no Dante, but I wasn’t down with Lindstrom. He needs a lot of work.

The draft network mock draft tool is a lot better than fanspeak imo. Obviously still some unrealistic mocks though.

Kay Adams is an idiot. She has zero front office or scouting experience. How does she get a TV show?

Wash your mouth out for spouting such hate. Kay is the smartest most knowledgable sports talking head on television. Besides I lust after her. She is just the cutest thing. We need more Kay Adams on sports.

She is average looking and really doesn't stand out as 'knowledgable'

I'm to old to get out more. However my standards of pulchritude remain intact.

how big would the freak out be if the picks are the following?

32 OL
56 TE
64 OL
73 CB
97 DT
101 WR
134 DE

That depends on who we pick up before the draft. If we pick up a DL or 2, I could see us not picking one until the 3rd.

The reality is that Thuney is likely gone after the season, and we could develop someone, or have Wynn move there. We also need a backup OT. Also, Jones is likely to be replaced after season, so a replacement is an option.

So, for me, this wouldn't freak me out at all, although a 2nd OL instead of a S seems wrong.

Mainly, people would be gobsmacked that they didn’t make any trades.
