This was mine.. Had gotten so many picks, that to go BPA there are some really stupid position repeats.. Like drafting both EJ Manuel and Landry Jones.. Aaaand we would be in major cap trouble if we actually had to sign 20 picks :silly:

I think this take is really interesting, because it touches on what I would venture is one of the things that makes QB drafting so difficult: that you might have two or three players that you can see working at somewhat the same level if placed into certain specific situations. And then it might come down to the question of exactly what traits you value most highly.
Is it Maye’s arm talent and tantalizing potential? Is it Daniel’s deep ball and mobility? Or JJ’s intangibles and ability out of rhythm on critical third downs? And that answer is probably completely dependent on a large number of factors like:
I think that is why the “love” and “hate” duality that we sometimes embrace as fans is interesting, because it might just be so: a very clear picture of a objective best, second best, etc. Or it might at the end of the day be a hairs breath related to putting a premium on very specific traits that ends up tipping the scales, especially if players have very different traits but maybe similar overall grades as prospects.
And a reason this draft is so extremely interesting and hard to predict; because we really have no idea which way Peters leans on basically any question other than conjecture based on his history as scout and ASGM.
Love reading all your guys’ takes by the way. As a European, the ES board has been an essential part of any basic football understanding I have.
