I ironically took him for the Dolphins on the board's mock draft saying that team lives for speed. Yup. Figuring Gibbs would never be available I had Achane earmarked as the one weapon they should have identified as a need. OL and him with a TE, CB and LB later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be cool and unique for teams to actually have players who they draft who can help them right from the jump. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize that Quan has already contributed a tackle and an assist right? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to those watching camp, he looked goof, but then he struggled some in preseason and I gather now is buried deep on the bench. Sounds like Forbes might be too. Basically Rivera's answer to what's been wrong on defense in the last few days centered on their rotations and benching Forbes. If they want to rebuild Forbes confidence, I don't think Rivera helped that with him making a big deal about their answers on defense features benching Forbes as a main plot line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDawg Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Williams got lazy and threw a bad ball off his back foot when he was under duress. That’s something we haven’t seen a lot (Williams under duress) and he seems to rush… something still feels off to me about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 As a []_[] fan, Drake Maye is struggling BIG TIME with man coverage and pressure. He’s taking sacks at a real high rate… most not his fault but he’s getting hit a ton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Chris Tyree is nice. Got some build up speed and he is a skillful route runner. I don't know if he's an NFL caliber athlete as a WR, but potential late round gem? Those deep out throws by Williams 😧. The ball explodes out of his hand and it is such an easy looking release. IMO his arm is a level up from Anthony Richardson's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufus T Firefly Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 I know its not the point of this thread, but I just gotta say, what a terrible game for Lincoln Riley. Making no adjustments, terrible clock management at the end of the half and now this, wasting minutes on little running plays down 18 in the 4th.

He's making a strong case for the 1st round that's for sure, but Penix is the better prospect in my opinion and I'd put him right behind Williams and Maye. The only that scares me about him is his history of injuries. He's had knee and shoulder injuries I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maye was popped a couple times by untouched safety blitzers in the first half. (I missed the 3rd Q) . I think it was Couch and Kitchens who whacked him. Kitchens looks good by the way there Mr. U fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a bonafide quarterback whisperer, but as far as the whole package of being a HC goes, I think it's becoming clear he doesn't have it. He can't build or coach defense, and his OLs have been total garbage at USC. It actually feels like Oklahoma came away better with Venables, something I never would have expected when he first left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stihl89 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 I’d be staying away from the super Covid senior QBs. They are 24 years old. They should absolutely be killing 18-20 year old kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Keon Coleman, WR, FSU - Went to Michigan State before. 6-4 215. Dude can do everything. Possession, wide catch radius, acrobatic grabs.

Jayden Daniels is also a ton of fun to watch. He's thin though, 6'3 200, but has the arm talent and athleticism. I don't recall him taking too many shots.

Silvernon Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 MLB is still the most probable first round pick to me. You'll lose a first round talent at end, so it does offset the talent loss. Probably drafting in the late teens or early 20s, so there's a chance at the top ILB on the board: Gray or Trotter Jr. I have yet to look at the class, but looking forward to it. The only other options are OT or DE. Leno probably gets another year with Daniels as an unknown. Looking like 2025 1st round pick. Figure they will want to keep the last DL spot inexpensive, so day 2 pick more probable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
