Patriots have already met w/ JD and Maye. They had dinner w/ JJ last night and are meeting with him today. I don't think they have met w/ any other "down the list" QBs. It still feels like they are gonna stay put and take a QB. Hopefully its the remainder of the big 3 to box out the Giants.

JD just put up the most efficient passing season in college football history. Like ever ever. The idea that there are not a wave of metrics and analytics that not only support him, but blows others away is silly. Hyperbole and cherry picking.

Feels like an opportunity for the term "with daylight"

Early on I had to push back on the idea that JD was a "raw" prospect as a passer. Blew my mind. Bunch of people saw the running numbers and didn't even bother to evaluate him as a passer. Running is nice and all but its just an X factor. It his passing game that makes the money.

I liked Howell. I prefer JD. Felt he was much more a victim of bad circumstance that was absolutely Sparta'd into the wilderness, while being thrown off a boat w/ weights tied to his legs. But this is the NFL and prices have to be paid, so he lost his oppo here.

Totally unrelated and for completely non-sadistic reasons I recently upgraded my car antenna. Its called the Mangler.

Came across an article where people were polled about what would go down at #2 https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/media-team-management-members-expect-jayden-daniels-drafted-number-2-overall-patriots-commanders/ We don't know the exact makeup of the voters, its simply claimed to be 140 respondents from "people from media, team management, and league management", but if these results actually mirror what various insiders were hearing from their sources around the NFL than its not surprising why they would think our team would be leaning in a given direction. The poll was asking about who will be taken at #2, whether its by us or someone else.

Today has been a good day

Dang Bust rates are much lower this year. Testament to the crop of QBs. That 80% bust rate on rich is brutal tho. Dude has all the physical talent in the world but that don't mean much if your never gonna realize your potential.

GUNNER! 10th inning long ball!

Whoa sound guy, we caught those swear words to the face lol.

Everybody knows two opposing forces just cancel each other out. It'll be fiiiiine. jk Keim has said before that he knew the Washington org was high on Jayden's ability to process. Now we can put Quinn's name specifically to that idea, but there could be others around the building as well. I wouldn't be surprised, his ability to read always came off the tape for me, especially so since he marries his mechanics w/ it. Make it way easier for the layman to follow. Adding on to your line of thinking, Keim has also hit on the idea that college players don't face the same level of defensive schemes b/c of the ocean of team diversity. He has specifically focused on the idea that Maye did not have to face a lot of defenses where he had to deal w/ teams adjusting their D post snap, while that was a constant for teams Jayden played. Interesting indeed.

Da crud just happened? Surprize were back! Homer.

Cowser 1st career Tater Over the monster

Its gonna be a party in the draft room this year. A whos-who at the top showing up. QBs Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels among 13 prospects attending 2024 NFL Draft https://www.nfl.com/news/qbs-caleb-williams-drake-maye-jayden-daniels-among-13-prospects-attending-2024-nfl-draft

So what your saying is I can make a pure guess and I have increased chances of being right, making me look super smart. I like those odds. This staff should do everything in its power to bring in QB General Booty from the Sooners.

Simple, some guys are so entrenched in their guy that no other pathway is an option. Everything else becomes a mistake.

You guys are failing to ask the real questions. Like how the world is gonna react when Caleb steals all the spotlight by showing up to draft night in that dress thingy. You can't compete w/ that. Everybody else is playing for 2nd.

Was not sure what thread to put this in. It kinda fits here I guess.

Holliday's debut bump He is batting in the last spot

I read the article Did either of you call bank or did you just walk away and not look at the cool explosion.

Sun will rise tomorrow. U heard it here first.

Did... Did u just post that? Have you been hacked?!

If he just so happens to be a victim of a Wilis/Howell slide down the draft...
