Dah-Dee

Whaaaaaa?! Don't be ridiculous. Do you even QB Thread?

Same! It was definitely the excel spreadsheet thing you mentioned, but they didn't give it to her:

She found the safe house where they're keeping Doug, um, "secure."

Maye actually has the second-worst on-target rate for intermediate throws (11-19 yds) (Austin Reed is worst) of any QB in the 2024 class. He's only slightly better at 1-10 (12th of 16). He's somewhat better at 20+ (8th of 16). Graph from this article: https://www.the33rdteam.com/what-does-accuracy-tell-us-about-the-2024-quarterback-draft-class/

Todd McShay has an announcement:

GMAP just taunting us now:

Perfectly sums up the last few months in here and should be the new subtitle for this thread. "The Official QB Thread: I Know I'm Reading Too Much Into This But I'm Trying To Avoid Work"

Getting closer....

Meanwhile, in RG3 World:

Draft night can't get here fast enough, the crazy is at an all time high. One weird tweeter says A, another weird tweeter says B:

Full text: My thoughts on the draft landscape right now for #Raiders: - Williams and Daniels go 1/2 - Reportedly NE asking price is a touch below the RG3 trade (1st, 2nd current year, 2 future 1st) - Off Chance that Drake goes 2 then it’s bidding war between NYG, LV, and MIN to move up - MIN or NYG could move up to 4 if Arizona is willing to risk out on Marvin Harrison - Assuming Daniels is gone at 2, probably CB/OT or trade down at 13 - Likely trade back up later for Penix or Nix. LV high on Penix per league view

If it ends up Daniels, I'll try to take some comfort in his build being a little different from RG3, in that Griffin had a jacked upper body, with skinny little chicken legs. If Daniels' pro day showed us anything, it was that he has relatively strong legs, with a skinny upper body. That must make a difference, right? RIGHT???

https://twitter.com/grpwins/status/1782528691920306446?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet WOW! Jayden Daniels is now over -300 to get picked 2nd and Drake Maye is -200 to get picked 3rd.

1. Bears take DC Williams 2. Commanders also take D.C. Williams, "because D.C. is right there in the name, ask Quinn," but while GMAP and Pope inexplicably 'sort out' the resulting commotion with rock/paper/scissors..... 3. Vikings trade up with NE and take Maye, but everybody thinks somebody else is turning in their card, again, so while they're sorting out the resulting commotion.... 4. Commanders take Brock Purdy, after losing non-tie-breaker tie-breaker by choosing scissors 11 straight times, with GMAP declaring, "I saw him first!" - so during the commotion.... 5. Bill Belichek appears at the podium in a puff of smoke and announces that he's picking Jayden Daniels in place of NE "because the Vikings will never get their **** together, and Kraft is a **** and wherever I'm coaching next year, or this year if Jerruh gets off his *** and fires McCarthy, I'm bringing JD5 with me. Suck it Brady!" Waiting for crystal ball to recharge so I can provide more info. Stupid micro USB.

Or mebbe Drank Maye.

Pretty cool:

Daniels. Jack Daniels.

Quit saying we're trading down! Oh wait. Ummm.... carry on.

No silly, Daniels is going to literally get broken in two the first time he scrambles. Keep things straight, it's Maye who will get everyone fired:

https://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2024/insider/story/_/id/39983768/2024-nfl-mock-draft-jordan-reid-seven-rounds-257-picks-predictions-final 2024 NFL mock draft: Reid predicts seven rounds, 257 picks 1. Chicago Bears (via CAR) Caleb Williams, QB, USC The presumed No. 1 pick, Williams would enter a favorable situation for a rookie QB. Chicago has a solid pass-catching trio in DJ Moore, Cole Kmet and Keenan Allen, and the offensive line has two reliable tackles in Darnell Wright and Braxton Jones. Williams displays all the traits you want in a franchise quarterback, and he truly excels outside of structure -- he had a 31-to-4 touchdown-to-interception ratio outside the pocket over three years in college. Easy pick. 2. Washington Commanders Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU This pick will likely come down to Daniels and UNC's Drake Maye. But considering the Commanders' veteran additions this offseason, they seem to believe they can win right now while still establishing a foundation for the future. Daniels is the guy who gives them the best chance for early success, showing excellent deep-ball passing and rushing ability. He averaged 11.7 yards per pass attempt last season and threw 40 TDs. 3. New England Patriots Drake Maye, QB, North Carolina The Patriots are likely to receive calls from multiple QB-needy teams that are outside the top five, but they should stay put and pick their next franchise QB here. With Jacoby Brissett already on the roster, this would be an ideal landing spot for Maye. The Patriots could be patient and let him develop as they continue to build up the offense. Maye's tools are intriguing, and he's my QB2 in this class, but his footwork and decision-making will need to improve. Projected trade: Vikings move up for a QB Vikings get: No. 8 Falcons get: Nos. 11, 108 and 129 Minnesota doesn't have to move into the top five for a QB here, based on how the board is falling, but it might not want to risk waiting any longer. I've heard Atlanta is interested in moving back from No. 8, so this fits from both sides. 8. Minnesota Vikings (via mock trade with ATL) J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan McCarthy is a great fit with the Vikings considering his skill set -- he's accurate and mobile -- and the infrastructure in place in Minnesota. The Vikings have Sam Darnold, so there's no pressure to start a rookie QB in Week 1. McCarthy's 88.2 QBR was third in the nation last season, and he has a ton of upside -- he just might need some time to adjust to the pro game. 22. Denver Broncos (via mock trade with PHI) Bo Nix, QB, Oregon The correlation between Nix's skill set and that of QBs who have played under Denver coach Sean Payton is impossible to ignore. Nix is accurate, poised and decisive -- all traits Payton covets. I would be shocked if Denver enters next season with just Jarrett Stidham and Ben DiNucci at the position, and it's clear neither is the long-term answer under center. After the trade back, this a more reasonable range for Nix, and it's a big win for the Broncos. They can land a great scheme fit at QB and add a pick in Round 2, where they currently don't have any selections. 44. Las Vegas Raiders Michael Penix Jr., QB, Washington This makes too much sense. Neither Aidan O'Connell nor Gardner Minshew are the Raiders' long-term answer at quarterback, and Penix could even find himself starting at some point during his rookie season. He isn't the most mobile QB prospect, but his deep ball is fantastic. Las Vegas passers had 18 interceptions (tied for fifth worst), completed 62.5% of passes (eighth worst) and averaged 6.6 yards per attempt (tied for seventh worst) last season.

I thought it was a given that this sentiment applied to anything about anybody for almost everyone posting in this thread over the last 6 months. 🙃
