DiscoBob Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 3 minutes ago, method man said: What’s funny is that one of Jay’s best skills was player evaluation. Ioannidis and Holcomb were his finds as examples. I don’t put Haskins on him at all - clearly didn’t want him. He didn’t want Alex Smith either. The only time he got to “pick” his QB was when he named Kirk starter over RG3 and Colt I would tend to agree. I'm not out here claiming he's some kind of scouting savant or something, but the "he's total trash" take is typical internet fodder 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my favorite part from the section on Maye, straight from the "I have very clearly never watched a single snap of either of these guys" files: Quote "He's 6-5, he can definitely move around in the pocket. He's not going to be a statue. But he's closer to Brock Osweiler than he is to (Justin) Herbert in terms of athleticism for me," an AFC executive said As a side note, I had no idea that water boys count as "executives" now.

Ghost of Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Jay is the biggest football related reason I checked out entirely. Not even him as much as the fact that Dan totally went against his first few years and just kept incompetent people years past the point it was clear they should have been fired. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The LSU/SEC cult is more intense than many NFL teams. With Colt Brennan, he quickly elevated that school and entire island into the national spotlight. Some hawaii games had better ratings than Saturday morning games despite starting at midnight lol. He was in the heismann discussion and that team almost made a new years day bowl game. He was the only reason. its only natural that a player of that talent and impact would have a cult following at the next level, especially coming from a tiny crappy school like hawaii that gets one maybe two nfl players drafted per year, if that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's kind of funny sometimes. Maybe he'd be better at stand-up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buts that's because JJ didn't properly anticipate the defenders hand motions... without that trait, he's doomed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted Jay fired after his first Thursday game. Think it was wk3 lol. After that he actually got better but no of that mattered with Doofus Dan and the 🤡 show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 We should start an x or reddit acct named "ExtremePundits" and take turns on it. A gloriously gushing fountain of unfounded, uniformed, outrageous, volatile, dumbass, and often just petty NFL takes. 2 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Est.1974 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Also keep in mind we will still be making one final offer to the Bears. That’s a given before we settle on second best. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommanderInTheRye Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Woh! The Commanders media department just dropped another great video. This one shows how they conducted the group interviews Wednesday. A lot of great footage. Adam Peters and Josh Harrais aren’t playing kids games, they’re looking for real battle tested players only. Great stuff…. . 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 1 hour ago, Skinsinparadise said: Jeremiah has been saying the polar opposite, he's been a big Drake Maye guy and likes him better at 2. Yep. He has hot wavered once. Bram has made himself look like a fool so many times that it really doesnt matter to me at this point. But Jeremiah is all in on Maye at 2. This is a guy that predicted Houston trading back up to 4 last year. So he cannot be discounted at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice_of_Reason Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 27 minutes ago, Chump Bailey said: For my money, I think JJ has the highest ceiling of any of them with Caleb right up there with him. Eh… I don’t think he has either the arm or the mobility/athleticism/size of Maye or the dynamic playmaking ability of Daniels. That doesn’t mean he won’t end up being the best of the group, that’s impossible to know. But I think the ceiling of the other two might be higher. That said, Brady wasn’t the biggest, strongest or fastest either, and didn’t have a rocket anrm, and he’s a GOAT. So, what the hell do any of us know. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
