CommanderInTheRye Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 47 minutes ago, seamonster said: Not a fan of Jayden Daniels. At all. Weak arm. Slender frame. Takes terrible hits and doesn't protect himself. Bails on clean pockets to run and take those terrible hits. I can't see him surviving in the NFL but he's the type of QB a SanFran exec typically gets steamed up for. Caleb Williams is a unicorn and is going to Chicago and they'd have give up too much draft capital to trade up... Drake Maye doesn't impress me either. Reminds me of a poor-mans CJ Stroud that might scramble more. This almost feels like a situation where you could trade back, pick up more draft picks, grab a QB (Penix, Mcarthy) and patch the nine thousand holes they've got in the roster. Well played. Nice juicy bait. Now sit back, kick up your heels, drink a Bud and see how many you can land. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bantu Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 That ESPN article is going to go a LONG way for Caleb Williams' PR and marketing in the positive direction after months of nit-picking a foregone concluded #1 pick in the draft. Actually confirms a lot of what was said about him from teammates, coaches, etc who have worked with him. He ain't falling past #1. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no Williams or Maye's in next year's draft class. You take that into account. Look at how much we paid to move up for RG3. Its about opportunity cost. If you want me to give up a blue chip QB, you better pay everything you got. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you sat down and really watched McCarthy, his pocket awareness is amazing, he is an escape artist while being rushed, and is great throwing on the move, second best in the class behind Williams. Him and Caleb have a lot of the same traits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 (edited) 1 hour ago, skinsfan66 said: Maybe, but if it worked out another way who cares? It's a crap shoot with all the QB's and Carolina looks like the newest fools right now. While the Bears look like the smart people at this point. I am not tied to the no.2 QB has to be the pick as been stated many times. Whatever they do is what we are going to live with, just hope it's right. I know what order I want but that's it. I don't care if it worked out another way but we've tried it so many times the way you are advocating and failed that why should I bank on it working this time? As Dane Brugler said recently its wild that this team (implying as bad as it was) only took one QB in the top 10 in the last 30 years. Why haven't this team picked more? Combination of having a young Qb in the fold and they didn't want to give up on yet and not picking high enough to get one, or its a bad draft for QBs. Drafting high increases your odds. Drafting high in a good QB draft increases your odds even futher. Punting to another season where the perception is the class isn't as good and you likely aren't picking as high -- that would be old school Redskins-Commanders. It would be going on that same old road and hoping for a better outcome. Edited February 28 by Skinsinparadise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing he has in common with Caleb Williams is that they both play QB and they're both Homo sapiens. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d agree. I just wonder if ATL are really pushing hard that the Bears ask for #8 but give back a 2025 3rd for example. That way CHI end up with 3 picks in the top 9 this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DogofWar1 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I mean any of the 2nd three could be franchise dudes. JJ looks good but was tasked with doing honestly not that much. I won't go as far to say he got carried, he didn't, but he also didn't carry. You're betting on the good from his smallish sample size being the norm going forward. With Nix, you're hoping he can evolve from easier college stuff to harder pro stuff. He's prolific at the former. Does that translate? With Penix he's kinda like Jayden Daniels but a little worse in age (6 years in college) and injury history. So if those are problems for Jayden double that for Penix. But who knows. Any of those dudes could ball out. They're all worth the 32nd pick or better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
