ILikeBilly2 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 More research has been done by the ES crew on the top QBs in this draft than at any other time in the history of this forum. Pretty cool. I thought it would be nice to lock in our opinions a bit for future reference. He is a chart that can be filled in with simple Yes/No answers. I wish I knew how to post a spreadsheet. Williams Daniels Maye McCarthy Either Penix, Nix or Rattler Starter by end of year 1 Plays at least 16 games in a season at least twice Wins at least 1 playoff game during career Wins at least 5 playoff game during career Wins at least 10 playoff game during career Wins at least 1 Super Bowl Signs a second contract with his original team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He accurately predicted Forbes last year. I don't think Daniels is the lock everyone thinks he is. I don't think he's a lock either but i am buying the smoke that its McCarthy not Maye as the runner up. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the prize wasn’t Drake Maye or Jayden Daniels or JJ at all. Maybe the prize was learning to trust the FO again after heartbreak.

BatteredFanSyndrome Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Just remember that every single year, the media puts out a bazillion “sources indicate” reports, and very little of it ever comes to fruition. NE prepared to select Drake Maye is just the latest. That’s not up to them, and there’s no way in hell that Peters has told any team or media member who he intends to take. It’s all game that everyone can stop playing around 8:20 this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that time let the conspiracy theories fly when our chosen QB isn't taken that Peters had nothing to do with the pick. 😎 Edited April 25 by Skinsinparadise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think RG3 to the magnitude of Haynesworth. All trust will be lost. Edited April 25 by Sacks 'n' Stuff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayouBrave86 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 We might get lucky and have Brian Thomas fall to us in the second round too. Has a shoulder injury. I don’t see him slipping past Buffalo though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 1 hour ago, skinny21 said: I’m not sure I’m following. I mean, I get that screen passes matter, but wouldn’t it, for example, be fair to ignore screen plays to better judge accuracy? Now, I’d still wanna know how accurate they were on screen passes… If two players throw the same amount of passes, but one throws a screen 10% of the time, and the other 40%, wouldn’t you question a narrative that says the first guy was asked to do less? I’m not saying you should necessarily draw a conclusion from that info per say, but I’d at least say that data point seems to refute the narrative. The point is QB's throw the play that is called. It is not their fault that the call was a screen. Holding play calls against their overall stats wont work. Screens are a big part of Riley's offense. So of course Caleb threw a ton of them. It still counts as a throw. Conversely screens werent really a huge part of the Michigan offence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been saying this for years. Ugly is good. Socially awkward is also acceptable. You do not want your quarterback being good looking and cool though. He goes to USC and is too busy shagging chicks to ever get good at football. Edited April 25 by Sacks 'n' Stuff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forehead Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Oh for what it is worth, based on my theory above, Jayden Daniels is a far better choice than Drake Maye, who has frat VP/lax bro vibes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayes work ethic and love of the game have never been questioned by anyone that I can find.
