Prepare the body for the catastrophic violence to come. I think I put in 4 miles today which should be equivalent to DW's parking lot. I'm pretty confident I can make it thru tho. Not even gonna stretch first. I'm confident in my ability to not waste money. my daughter is dragging me right now to the third park of the day while the rest of my clan is back at the hotel. Exhausting indeed. draft talk podcasts is keeping my energy fueled but my energy is almost spent. Need a vacation to recover from this vacation Edited March 29 by Skinsinparadise 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, at first I thought the elbow thing was just some sort of weird photo editing issue, but that is the second image I've seen where it looks ****ed up. Truly, what is going on with his elbow? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played in 2 totally different systems in college, they have totally different throwing motions and mechanics.

HOF44 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Seems like it could be more than some are reporting if luck goes against him. If your bursitis does not go away after 6-12 months, your doctor may recommend surgery to repair damage and relieve pressure on your bursa. If your elbow bursitis was caused by constant, repetitive overuse – such as playing tennis or golf – consider modifying its frequency and the way you perform the activity 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatNFLChick Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 People have completely overrated or just have amnesia when it comes to Fields in college. In nearly 2 seasons he ran for over 100 yards in a game only twice. Fields in 2019 - 471 yards, 10 TDs (full season) Fields in 2020 - 383 yards, 5 TDs (in 8 games) Daniels in 2022 - 818 yards, 11 TDs Daniels in 2023 - 1,134 yards, 10 TDs Fields is more like Allen as a runner. He's going to help you when you get close to the endzone or need to pick up a first down but he was never some super speedy proficient runner in terms of yardage nor was he someone whose legs teams had to account for or play differently because of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to add that to my list of games to rewatch before the draft. TIA I *think* it was the Army game on 10/21/23. Regardless, we've probably given it way more attention than it deserves. As the 'diagnosing' doctor said, it's nothing more than a visual oddity. Not an issue. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/jayden-daniels-elbow-lsu-quarterback-nfl-draft-2024/bc05b709e4a09baeb234c79f I also think we run the risk of Jayden Daniels' mom appearing at our door in the middle of the night if we keep talking about it. 😬 Edited March 29 by Dah-Dee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinny21 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 5 hours ago, mistertim said: His running truly is impressive, but his lack of anticipation on throws is concerning. Some of those would have been interceptions in the NFL instead of incompletions. DBs will jump those routes all day long if you wait until the receiver is open when it's a pass that should be thrown before he breaks. Also pulling his eyes down so fast and running instead of looking for a receiver downfield. Yes, it worked out for him, but it still exposes him to more hits and many times leaves bigger plays on the field. Yeah, it was a good breakdown. Liked a lot of the ball placement, but you’re absolutely right about pulling the trigger earlier (on the comeback routes in particular). Seems to me those should be some of the easiest to throw with anticipation - you’re only having to worry about the corner’s depth, vs a backer or safety bracketing - and the fact he’s doing that (multiple times in the same game) in his 5th year… that concerns me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think the deep outs are the hardest to throw accurately with lots of anticipation because there are so many variables you have to take into account. One of the reasons those are considered to be the big boy NFL level throws that scouts tend to look for. The comebacks are more straightforward, as long as you know the depth your receiver is running and how far the DB is off of him. That's one of the things I like about Maye. I've seen him throw many of those out breaking routes, including deep, with anticipation. I remember one in particular that was actually in a youtube breakdown video someone posted recently. The guy doing the breakdown noted that Maye saw that heat was coming and that his guy running the deep out would be open, but he'd have to get the ball out really early. So he took the snap and the ball was legit out of his hands almost two full seconds before the WR made his break. It was so early that Maye appeared to intentionally take a little heat off of it so it would have time to get there. It was an absolute dime. Hit the receiver in the hands right on the sideline. That's not to say that Maye doesn't have issues that need to be fixed. He absolutely does. But IMO being able to make those kinds of throws pretty consistently already is a pretty huge leg up for him, especially being as young as he is. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to be kidding me. He may not have been used as much as runner in College but he’s elite as runner. Elite. There are three QBs who have run for 1k in a season in the NFL. Vick, Jackson and Fields. That’s the list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 (edited) Listening to both Bullock and Logan Paulsen today both agree Drake Maye has the most upside among the three likely choices at QB.

So I switch channels a bit later and two guys are arguing over whether we take Daniels or McCarthy, as if Maye isn't even an option... So I say **** it I'm gonna rest my eyes for a bit and I turn the TV off and put Sirius on Alexa and tune into some announcer who says "Next up after the break who will draft JJ McCarthy.
