The run on QBs in the first round looks like desperation to me from a lot of teams. Who knows what Atlanta was doing.
Chargers ignore their WR needs at the #5 pick, Harbag is turning the team into a 3 yards and a cloud of dust running team. How does this makes sense with Herbert at QB? They should have traded him if this is how it's going to go.
Looks like the Niners are getting ready to offload Deebo, be interesting to see what they get for him.
Niners are not offloading Deebo. It would be Aiyuk if either of them and I don’t think that’s happening either. At least not this season. We needed another WR to potentially take one of those spots a year or two from now.
Teams with franchise QBs getting players that don't help those franchise QBs was the theme last night. Except for Chicago. They must be sending Atlanta a really nice fruit basket this morning letting Odunze get to them instead of taking him like they should.
I’m sure I’m in the minority, but I like the Nix pick for the Broncos. Mostly because I have this unfounded (so far) faith in Payton. A huge part of a quarterback’s success is how they are coached and given a chance to succeed. Zach Wilson may or may not be a NFL quarterback but he had zero chance with the shitshow that is the jets. I like Nix’s chances with the Payton as his head coach. And if he succeeds and is the long term solution at quarterback then this was not a reach at all. If he doesn’t then he joins the other 3 busts (statistically speaking) from this draft class.

What is the Jets factor here? Nix and Wilson are the same age and the other two are not much older and not any better. Who leads and mentors?
When you have a franchise QB, when is it ever the wrong move to get an elite offensive lineman? Really weird that you think that pick makes no sense.Quote:

You can get good receivers farther down in the draftQuote:

If they're going to use Herbert's arm, they need a top pick right now. Protection is great but what is that worth when you don't have receivers to throw to? Getting a plug and play WR1 later on down the draft road is not a sure bet.
It’s way easier to find quality receivers in later rounds than OT’s.
First round receivers are far from a sure bet. Look at that chart
Plus its hard to find your first round receiver when you are laying flat on your back with Micah Parsons laying on top of you.

Someone should have reminded John Lynch of that Congrats to the Niners on the whiff at a pick that would actually helpQuote:

There were 7 OT’s projected to go in the first round and they were all off the board. Saying he whiffed on the pick at this point is silly. Pick 31 is more like a second round pick when you’re not picking again until 63rd.Quote:

If they think he can step in and let them trade aiyuk, they’re nuts
They needed another WR for depth after losing a couple of guys. He’s also a really good punt and kick off return guy which might be a big deal this season with the rule change. I wish they had traded up and drafted an OT but as they stood pat at 31 I’m fine with the pick.Quote:

The steady "leaks" of the NFL schedule is one of the dumber things the league does to pique interest with a slow drip of games over several days, when everyone knows some dolt down in the league office is just texting them to their favorite reporters one at a time.
That said, I'll admit there's some interesting week 1 games:
BAL at KC for opening TNF
DAL at CLE in the national 4:30 slot on that first Sunday with TB12 calling the game, his 1st.
A-a-ron and the Jests at SF for MNF.
Seriously, it’s goofy how they try to make everything an event. Just stop sucking each other off and release the schedule.
To this day my step FIL still thinks cutting Tebow was the biggest mistake Denver ever made. At dinner on Sunday he wouldn't stop talking about how Zach Wilson is going to show up hungry and crush it.
How hard was it for you to hold in your laughter?Quote:

I wish the both of you nothing but laughter and grace this upcoming season then. :biggrin:
if by "crush it" he was referring to the MILF set in Denver, no argument.Quote:

With this I think the Browns are the only team to never play abroad. I’m ok with that.
Surely there’s a European sports fan base that has gone through some shit and would happily adopt the Browns as their NFL team of choice?Quote:

I'm not one to wish injury on anyone, but I really hope this blows up in the League's face again.
I'm not one to wish injury on anyone either, but a little ayahuasca overdose wouldn't bother me.Quote:

Hilarity ensues. Somewhere, Zach Wilson smiles.
Uh, read my post again, this time with critical thinking skills engaged.Quote:
