Lol. Ok, I now have all of the information I need.

I didn't realize we had some Drew Brees fans lurking in this fanbase all these years. Cringe.

It’s a lazy comp in my opinion. It’s made because he was a great QB who wasn’t tall. 
 

The guy I would actually comp to Brees…is Stroud, who has silly Brees like ball placement and touch. 

Yes and no.

Young loves to dump the ball off on swing passes and screens, just like Brees.

This doesn’t merit its own thread but I noticed this morning if you look at Young’s NFL draft prospect page on mobile, it says he was drafted by us. However it doesn’t show if you look at it from desktop. Obviously most likely means nothing but just thought it was interesting 

 

EDIT: correction, it shows on desktop as well

Hmmmmmm...

Weird right? I can’t find any NFL website mocks that correspond with those picks

Yeah but…I find it hard to believe that’s the reason for Brees comp. Good observation on your part, but I’d be shocked if the majority made this comp for that reason.

I don’t think they are fans, they just aren’t liars. 
 

Brees was annoyingly good, and it’s been a pleasure watching Winston and co try to replace him.

Normally I wouldn't put any stock into something like this, but it being on the NFL's own website makes me wonder.

By that standard so was Ryan. He was an MVP.

I think both were above average. Is Brees legit hall of fame worthy? Eh not my call to make. I think he did a great deal of stat padding in the regular season. It is what it is.

Soooo, we take Young, Houston takes Stroud. After that, an unknown team (Vegas or ATL maybe?) trades up with ARI to select Richardson and Lamar is going to IND?

QBs 1-2-3-4. Wow, Seattle landing Anderson at 5 would be a coup.

More than likely a glitch or someone at NFL.com trolling, but it is entertaining.

Thanks for posting.  Immediately after that play they went into my biggest criticism of Young.  He holds onto the ball and makes a hero throw when it was absolutely unnecessary.

From what it looks like they've only listed the top 5 draft picks:

1. CAR - Bryce Young

2. HOU - CJ Stroud

3. ARI - Will Anderson Jr.

4. BAL - Will Levis

5. SEA - Jalen Carter

 

None of the NFL.com mocks have this order, so I'm not sure what to make of it. Could be nothing, could be something, who knows?

Won't believe anything until the pick is announced either way. I just don't see how the NFL wants picks being tipped weeks before the draft. They want this drawn out and all the drama and talk with it.
