I won't be surprised if Sanders drops because of his interviews

I genuinely think that is unlikely.

He is probably the most NFL prepared QB since Andrew Luck. The biggest issues with him are his physical ceilings. He is has an elite QB understanding but a moderately above average NFL QB skillset. 

I am curious to see how he works out at the NFL level. I would say Geno Smithish.

My prediction: Shemar Stewart is one of the biggest combine risers with some mocking him as high as our pick. 

 

He's already there imo. There is a group form 6 overall to the late 20s that could easily go anywhere in that range. Shemar is in that group right now. The teams will have the biggest differences in ranking, more than the last ten combined. Just a funky odd draft. 

The only true knowns are Hunter and Carter will be gone before 8. Me personally believes both QBs will be gone before 8, but that's not 100% like the statement before. I've seen 9th and 10th linked to either QB plenty. Graham is thought to be on the next tier, but teams don't value DTs in the top ten.

Thats the current buzz.

I’ve only seen Shemar as a late 1st. His size & athleticism will turn heads at the combine.

1st link was only SEC players, but thanks for the others. I hadn’t seen them. Looks like the Saints are a popular thought to some.

np, I mean the saints are drafting 9th. I also tried to find him listed 4th overall by a good ranker, but I cannot. (I also may have mixed him with QB Sanders....ugh)

He's getting buzz, I personally wouldnt be shocked to see him go form 5 overall to late 40s. His size is what will show up at the combine. I think he will run, jump, etc like other edges.....*but he will carry 50 LBs and 5 inches over the group. Panthers should think about him at 8th too, I wouldn't be upset..But I also like too many at 8th in this unusual draft. 

I believe many will move after the combine, for sure Shemar could land in the top ten like your prediction.

Bryce Young but a better NFL QB skillset?

How about good at football? How about likes to play football? How about wants to be the best at football?

Seems like we mostly ignore those guys.

Lol. Nah, man. Get with the program. We need athletic freaks that aren’t really good at their position but maybe have a 3% chance of excelling at a position they’ve never played. Why take a safety with a proven track record, when there are tons of shitty corners that can run a better 40 and can be moved to safety? Shitty quarterback? Excellent! Let’s trade up and make him a receiver! 27 year old olb with major character issues and decision making problems? That’s the guy we want.

Qbs aren't defined by physical abilities.

Brady, Brees, Manning, Montana, Warner,.....doesn't seem to correlate.

Also known as the Combine - Feb 27 - Mar 2

Are you going to watch more closely this year than before, any specific players positions you want to watch?

I may actually tune in to watch the Edge and Defensive Line positions and maybe some late round Wideouts.  

I don't think I'll be watching as closely this year as I have in the past (more so due to time constraints than interest), but I'm hoping to catch a good chunk of the DL/EDGE drills as well as see how the DBs test. Fingers, toes, eyes, and ears crossed that the team picks up a DL, an EDGE, and a CB. Maybe even find a guy that can play outside and rotate inside as well.

    • I have been on the Bech bandwagon since well before the SR Bowl.  Hoping that he would stay a hidden gem and we'd be smart enough to grab him late.  I just don't think Morgan cares as much about WR as we do
    • No one had posted in a month.  I don't think any of us were watching
    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up.
