Not part of the entourage, not a young buck anymore but I do have a couple of important kind of friends with the program. 😉

bringing yall behind the scenes coverage over here! Cam is a monster of a man though to be fair and also a professor at Hogwarts.

Haven’t felt this alive for a draft day since 2003.

Gentlemen, it’s been a pleasure arguing/debating/getting heated over these past few months. I don’t think we can go wrong with either Daniels or Maye. If we do draft JD5 (which I’m hearing we will), y’all will become believers soon enough!

Jayden was actually born during a leap year and is 85 years old.

If anyone is worried about Jayden’s weight, worry no more! He’s posted him eating a waffle for breakfast and now just posted him chowing down on Buffalo Wild Wings. Guess he’s sponsored by Bisquick and B Dubs now weight gain szn [ON] John Beck, Skins legend!

And yes there will be an influx of LSU fans joining and making Washington their secondary team. Well, maybe third behind Burrow and the Bengals.

I would’ve been banging the drum for Burrow too 😉 but we took a QB a draft early. Thanks Dan!

Yeah no thanks to JJ. Can already see the headlines during the preseason that he’s going to be a work in progress while he’s going 6/15 in preseason games with 83 yards with 0 tds and 1 int.

My humble and homer take: ceiling-slightly less running Lamar Jackson that can actually beat you with his arm and accuracy (takes the league by storm) floor-Tyrod Taylor

Gotta give an OG like me some credit. Been here for a long, long time. The Tailgate offered me so much wisdom and advice during my younger years. Some of the old regulars like sarge, you, bubba (rip), die hard, orangeskin, skinshokiefan, etc.

This thread may just have to be the all time gameday thread as well once the season starts. So much action in here, I don’t want to leave.

We might get lucky and have Brian Thomas fall to us in the second round too. Has a shoulder injury. I don’t see him slipping past Buffalo though.

At this point, we should all just band together and create our own scouting and analysis service.

It’s not about the QB we draft tonight, it’s about the journey and friends we made along the way in this thread.

Dude, no just no. didn’t you also say he lacked elusiveness too? Believe what you want to believe but his film says otherwise.

How many times did he really get plastered this season? That’s a false narrative that his vision is poor. You don’t average over 8 ypc while rushing for over 1000 yards with poor field vision.

Jayden was doing what he needed to do to keep LSU in that game with an all time terrible defense trying to stop Milroe and co. He was putting up video game numbers against Bama until code red was called by Saban.

That’s a dangerous game ESPN bet is playing. Jayden is up to -1000 from -500 yesterday. Not sure where they’re getting their odds from. eta that post is from April 19th a lot has changed since then, but odds don’t mean anything apparently

Happy Jayden day everyone 😉

I said he’s the worst decision maker of the top four, which he is…but here you so go since you asked..straight from NFL.COM Said an AFC executive: "He's got arm talent. He's fast. He is a smaller man, so you worry about the pounding. I don't think he's a good processor. [Though he] actually got a good S2 (cognitive test score); I'm surprised he took it because nobody's taking it. Look, I don't penalize him like a lot of people do -- 'Well, they only threw the ball f---ing eight times in this game.' They've done that forever. What I don't like is you can watch a play and you can tell, OK, they're going to this guy. And if the defense calls it, they've got it covered, he will f---ing wait and wait and wait and wait and start moving around and moving around and he is throwing it to that f---ing dude. You're like, Goddamn, look somewhere else! And he's athletic, so a lot of times he can do it. I think there's some miss factor, but there's some upside." https://www.nfl.com/news/2024-nfl-draft-pro-execs-scouts-coaches-rank-and-evaluate-the-top-20-prospects-in-this-qb-class You should read up some more on the QBs this draft. There’s some good material out there.

He’s probably the worst decision maker from the the top 4. What reads was he really making in a run heavy offense? That’s actually one of his weaknesses according to scouts.

JD was lethal downfield last season. “LSU’s Jaden Daniels produced the most impressive deep passing statistics of the last decade in 2023. Daniels completed 53-of-79 passes of 15-plus air yards for 1,783 yards, 24 touchdowns and just one interception. His completion rate of 67.1% on deep passes led the nation. Don’t let your eyes gloss over that number: a completion percentage of 67.1% would be impressive on allpasses, including screens and dump-offs. For deep passes, it’s beyond exceptional.” https://miketanier.substack.com/p/ultimate-quarterback-stat-pack-jayden

We are almost at the finish line!
