From Cam to RG111 psychology of draft analysis

The selective bias was especially troubling because it happened at the same time so many were praising the game intelligence of TCU's Andy Dalton, who played his entire collegiate career in a single-read spread not unlike the one Newton thrived in at Auburn. Look at a picture of Newton next to Dalton and it isn't tough to figure out where that came from.

Wait? Are these people suggesting people like GritsRGreat are flaming racists?!

Yeah, I stopped reading there.

People who can't imagine that someone can do things differently and still be successful are guilty of some serious close-mindedness, whatever it stems from.

Doug Farrar is Cam's biggest champion specifically because of how cheated he felt when Cam exploded out of the gate when all of his compatriots in the media made it seem he was doomed to failure. It pissed him off and he takes digs everytime Cam come sup now because of it.

another thread on this topic?

thanks.

won't be too long before this forum is the tinderbox2.

would be great to have discussions about football without having it turn into some racial/social discussion.

People made this bed during pre draft last year, be upset with them we have to sleep in it now. Their actions are COSTLY. They made it hard for the fans, analysts, media who follow them. Theyve made it a lot harder for future QBs. No longer will people easily accept their hype. They were too selfish to think about that though. All for the sake of annointing one unproven QB who didnt even want to be here. I hope it was worth it.

    • I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.
    • I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--
    • After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
