  1. He was slinging it. Granted it was a Pro Day, but he showed he can launch it if needed…
  2. BurnNChinn is similar to Sanjay (spell check), while SizzleBuzz is more of a socialite wannabe. He gets excited when crusty old rich guys try to flex their power and worships the ground Tepper walks on. With that said I would value BurnNChinn’s higher than Sizzle, but on par with Sanjay.
  3. Oh I get the concern but he is now 8 5/8” as of today by stretching his thumb. They measure hands open palm spread out fingers from the pinky tip to the thumb tip (I could be wrong on this). He can’t stretch that section of his thumb out flat, but he can wrap it around a football just fine. They really should measure how long the hand can wrap around the circumference of the football to get a more accurate/relevant measurement. I think that section of his thumb makes up more than half an inch. Hopefully that makes sense (at least in my head it does).
  4. I don’t think his hands are that bad of an issue. Check out his thumb when he is showing Fitt and McAdoo his stretched out hand it bends up severely first then goes out. This doesn’t matter when it wraps around the football as he demonstrates. That could more than make up the 3/8 of an inch he is under 9 inches.
  5. We went from this class is horrible to Pickett might not be there at 6. Pickett and WIllis might go in the top 10 and I wouldn't be surprise if Ridder, Howell, and Corral all go in the first as well. This class isn't as bad as people are making it out to be. I could see the Saints and Steelers drafting a Corral/Ridder to sit behind Winston/Mitch for a year with their first round picks.
  6. Pickett's is all done and our entire staff was there. Next up Willis tomorrow!
  7. "Pick 6" for a QB named "Pickett" is a little scary sounding...
  8. And you can throw that thing to your teammates and not the other team right?
  9. Baker wouldn't be terrible if we drafted Willis. It lets him sit/develop a year, but I don't think Baker would be ok with it plus I don't want to give up draft picks.
  10. With our new defense in the NFC I would think so. Especially is Marshall or Shi Smith develop into anything decent.
  11. I think he ran away from the board because he couldn't defend his nonsense position on him compared to Dalton.
  12. https://syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/2765817-sam-darnold-dazzles-in-rainy-usc-pro-day-after-not-throwing-at-draft-combine.amp.html It was mixed. Some people loved it because he threw in the rain well.
  13. He was just a little more excited than usual.
  14. Lol you bring up rushing yards but ignore passing yards. Why are you even stating how many rushing yards they have as they is just a stat that is meaningless to you. Like I stated earlier Pickett uses his legs to extend plays to make his passes (go compare passing yards to Dalton’s since you are with rushing). You don’t want him we get it, but you really can’t justify why other than your heard he was like Andy Dalton somewhere. Andy Dalton couldn’t get off his first option and go through progressions. So his weakness was actually a strength of Pickett. Plus he couldn’t get the ball downfield which Pickett has shown he can. https://syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/643144-andy-dalton-2011-nfl-draft-scouting-report.amp.html
  15. He runs a 4.6 is constantly keeps his eyes down field. Rolling out and extending plays to buy time to make your throw is a great trait for a QB, go watch Mahomes and Rodgers as they do this constantly. He can also pick up the first down with his legs if he needs to, but he is a pass first QB. 38 pass attempts per game in a NFL style offense against a decent conference is a positive thing. It shows that he can consistently make these plays and go through his reads. Give me 38 attempts with a high completion rate and yard vs a lower attempt. A larger sample size of passes is better. Pitt had one of the better QBs in the NCAA of course they are going to air it out and guess what? Is usually worked as they won the ACC for the first time in a while. He is perhaps the best QB in this draft at mid range throws and can fit the ball into tight windows. So he has size, speed, and a good enough arm. People hate him because he is boring. He won’t launch it 75 yards down the field and he won’t break 5 tackles on a run, but he is a solid prospect. The same thing happen with Mac. But hey you read somewhere his comparison is Dalton…
  16. I know Warner and Manning did (later in his career). I think Brady has before as well. I'm not worried about the gloves as long as he can throw well in bad weather...
