This draft gotta be the worst possible scenario for any SF players hoping to trade out of ‘22 1sts for ‘23 1sts…like me

Yeah, you can forget that. Probably needed to do that months ago, honestly.

The Bears just drafted Velvet Jones.

all these teams not drafting QBs has to increase Baker Mayfield's value on the market right?  It shows nobody thinks these rookie QBs are starters.  

And JimmyG 

 

[massraider]

At some point, you'd like everyone involved to realize there isn't any QB worth talking about, so maybe talk about the other positions on the field. These are draft fans, true junkies, stop prattling on about QB like no one has ever heard about any other position.

Velus Jones Chicago? Guy is 24 already. Almost 25.

But it's OK, he's immature for his age so it's really like he's 20. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Geno Smith breathes another sigh of relief. 

 

[Buckna]

Indy with 2 picks coming up, Matt Ryan is 37, maybe someone finally gambles on a QB?

Edit: Strike 1

 

[HellToupee]

That was a comedy duo??

wow I’m old

 

[Sam Quentin]

Good pick by Atlanta

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

This kid the colts just took is a monster.

They overly focus on the QBs every year apparently even when none are picked. Just brutally bad coverage.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

OMG a QB!

Matt Miller @nfldraftscout

NFL source just text me: "Either Nakobe Dean has horrible medicals or is a serial killer. I just don’t get it."

Torn pec, now reportedly a busted shoulder that he opted to not have surgery on. Not great to have multiple major injuries and then not have surgery.

I actually never have the TV on. 

I'd rather listen to the live streams from PFf or Draft Network or someone.

Maybe not FBG podcast

And when one is finally taken, they didn’t preempt it at all.  

 

[Sam Quentin]

Falcons get their QB of the near future

might be a run on QBs now…

 

[massraider]

OMG a QB! 

Next 20 minutes of TV now scheduled

 

[tangfoot]

Wait, the Titans drafted an OL whose last name translates to “Little Brother”?  
 

 

[Desert_Power]

Jelani Woods to a Frank Reich offense is a very interesting spot.

 

[Buckna]

Nice spot for Ridder. Mariota is no barrier to the starting job IMO. And a 3rd round investment is no barrier to replacing next year if he doesn't show a lot of promise

ATL has another pick coming up. Double up at QB power move

 

[IHEARTFF]

seems possible although somebody would need to trade up

Wonder how the media got Willis so wrong. Clearly the NFL teams were not considering him, yet most mocks seemed to have 2-3 QBs in the first round.

 

[Sam Quentin]

Colts might want someone to sit behind Ryan.  Isnt Ryan 37?
 

they could use a QB in waiting

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Ritter is, like Allen was, very inaccurate. He’s going to need seasoning. 

Marriota looked pretty good in relief of Carr. And in TEN he was never allowed to use his legs.

I don’t doubt Ritter will get some play, but I’m betting MM starts and plays most of the year. 

 

[-OZ-]

Maybe the Rams take Willis

Riddler seems like a career backup. Quality backup. If anything this may mean MM plays somewhere else in 23 as they draft one of the top guns. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I wonder if the Ravens take Dean.

If Atlanta's goal is to shadow tank, that would definitely be the route to go!

Damn. Colts get another steal. 

 

[BassNBrew]

I was thinking the opposite. Teams happy waiting until next year. Right now I take Willis over Mayfield straight up. Need to discount Mayfields salary dropping him even lower. 

 

[The Big Donkey]

there are a couple folks , i think, who got invited to the green room last night that are still not drafted.     feel bad for them and theirs.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Ravens just go to value town again I see

 

[IHEARTFF]

yeah I kind of agree it doesn't help Baker necessarily

 

[Desert_Power]

Like their use of the picks. Going to be a fun offense, could be a wagon for FF

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I mean, would you rather have Ritter as your QB of the future, or a CJ Stroud or Bryce Young with Ritter holding a clipboard as an upside backup?  

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Who was the twerp with Ekeler?

QBs are the most expensive position in football. I think teams should take more shots on mid-round talent there.

 

[dipandglide]

I love the Ritter landing spot. A lot of people are going to waste picks on him in the late 1st of Superflex drafts. That is good for me

Ridder, not Ritter, but I agree he’s a waste of a pick, but at least it’s a good landing spot.

a lot of guys flying under the radar in the league never get a fair shot.  Reduce practice reps and preseason doesn’t help

 

[renesauz]

This feels like a steal for Philly!

 

[BassNBrew]

Philly draft will grade out high

 

[rockaction]

Well there goes Dean. Finally. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Dean could well be the SOD. 

 

[IHEARTFF]

This feels like a steal for Philly!

for sure it is great value

 

[BassNBrew]

This feels like a steal for Philly!

Probably. That said I wonder if all these GA players are over rated based on a raising tide raising all ships.  I mean I might look serviceable with 7-8 studs around me.

you mean like the 1.1?

Dean is an animal

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Just an absolutely insane year for trades. This has to be a record.
