Shocker

I like evaluating prospects throughout the season. The draft is my favorite sport event period and has been since 20 some years ago. Second nature for me to look for players that could fit our needs all college football season. Part of the fun of watching teams I don’t support. Look if Kenny Pickett was a QB with upside and talent I would definitely be interested. Willis has upside…I can see the argument. Howell as has talent and did it for numerous years. Pickett is a bust every draft in every way. That scouts love him to me says a TON about the rest of this class and not so much Pickett. He is the least rotten egg at this point in time. No upside IMO. None

Agree, but Jake Frohm played better comp in college and was more accomplished. LOL I said he was Blaine Gabbert but I probably shouldn’t disrespect Blaine that way

Look if Kenny Pickett was Zach Wilson, Lance, Fields or even Mac Jones the argument would be much better. He isn’t even close to any of them.

Not even remotely true but whatever. He was having problems at the senior bowl practices with throwing deep. Small hands do matter especially that small but he isn’t even close to elite in any area whatsoever. Period. His longest throw on a “perfect 6 for 6 day” at the senior bowl the receiver had to reach back and dig it out to make the catch and that was an in route. Not impressed at all with his arm or anything else about him.

If we take him and he has fumbling issues or has trouble pushing the ball to the boundaries the coaches cannot complain. That is what you are drafting

Yeah I was personally thinking I would prefer Nakobe Dean if the bigtime OTs are gone over these QBs. He is more worth the pick. We could use a LB like him.

Pickett is nearly 24 years old as a redshirt senior and was at least there in the offense for 5 years. He may be more polished right now and he should be obviously. However, to ignore his limitations and pick him that early is shortsighted IMO. I don’t see the upside and really don’t like the red flags either. Definitely could be the pick cuz this is what happens when a coach has to win now and can’t wait for a QB to develop. They reach.

Yeah, I don’t see us doing anything before the deadline Especially now the Hayward is out with yet another fuggin injury.

Yeah exactly

If a trade with them brings back those picks we should absolutely listen. If the Steelers do this they are much dumber than I think they are

Just build the OL and ideally do so after trading down slightly. Again I would sign Mitch Trubisky cheap and roll with him and Sam for now. Keep Cam as #3 short yardage guy if he wants to stay All this knowing next draft we definitely will have to find our QB

Good ole days when they cared…Sean Taylor 1 punter -10

Rut roe

How dafuq does this check the box? 8 1/4 inches Pickett's hands are smaller than most QBs. Last spring, scouts measured them at 8 1/4 inches, putting him in the 0th percentile among NFL quarterbacks. If they actually take this hack at 6 I will be completely dumbfounded. All hope will be removed for me

Stop being absurd Igor. Cam is not good anymore.

Rhule taking Pickett, who would have the smallest hands in the league, after talking arm length all last year would be just perfect

New coach time

LOL…Howell looked great in the Senior Bowl game. No OL as usual. Crazy evaluations based on what I see.

LOL…Derek Carr is better than anyone even being discussed. Big Carr fan. Pickett is nothing even close to Carr. Pickett is an amazing bust and if he becomes a backup I will flat out be shocked. If the Panthers can’t see his red flags we are fugged Mel Kiper is an evaluator I love. He is flat out about measurables with every prospect. His love for Pickett is funny to me but I take it with a grain of salt.

Dude…Kenny Pickett is not as good as Darnold. No way man. He will be 24 as a rookie. 1 year younger than Sam. Does not have the arm. Does not have the pedigree Darnold has. He isn’t near the player. The amazingly terrible reach he would be astounding to me. If we pick Kenny Pickett in this draft at all it is a wasted pick.

Taking Pickett in this draft is brutal. At six is a franchise killer He doesn’t have 1 thing that makes us better. Darnold is so much better. Such a bust…it is so clear

Savage…but true

No he isn’t but at pick 6 there are much better options. Our franchise QB isn’t in this draft. Question is can we find that guy in the next draft? Some good prospects but major questions with them as well. Brice Young is very undersized. This QB problem is the #1 deal but we can’t reach and hope. Have to draft the best player.

This Kentucky vs Alabama game tonight has the make up of a final 4 match up. Bama plays so damn hard and Kentucky get better every time I see them Bama has great guards and good inside play. Kentucky can absolutely win the championship. I would call them a favorite to be honest.

I am so totally in the mindset of OL in round 1 as well. There isn’t a pro QB that is can’t miss in this draft.
