Would I be mad for drafting Jones? If Lance is already gone, not really. The biggest thing about drafting Jones is the OL has to go from the outhouse to the penthouse overnight. Dude is a pure pocket passer...period, and will need protection to be successful. Jones would be a stud behind Indy's OL. Here with our current OL? He'd be pummeled to somewhere between livermush and roadkill.

I guess someone got Trey and Fields confused. Fields to Steelers.........................................................(at#24)

Yep, I've even changed my avatar. I've been on the bandwagon for a year now. He was my target for this year this time LAST February.

L-O-L!!!!!!!! If you honestly believe that, then you need to dig into the draft a little deeper than just talking about it. I will quit this MB for good if this happens. Please tag it, screen shot it or do whatever you need to do to mark it down. Question is, would you do the same? That's how confident I am that is 100% bulls!t.

Go back and re-read the post. I was making fun of Mel Kiper, not endorsing him. McShay and a host of other talking heads on TV are much better than Kiper. Mel is a legend in his own mind. Yeah, he was an original made-for-TV draft 'expert', but he's far from the best one today. Just because he was one of the firsts, that doesn't make him the best.

Nice cherry pick. Mel spews enough stuff that he could be right AND wrong on most first round picks over the months leading up to the draft. Heck, he's like chief meteorologist of the draft...given enough predictions, one is bound to come true.

LOL, some people can't see sarcasm if it fall out of sky the and hit them on the head. The irony of this is Mel was mocking scouts, you know the professional ones, while he just plays one on TV.

Mel Kiper is defending Fields now (dropping on other BBs). Stick a fork in Fields. Kiper has endorsed Mac Jones and Fields. So we know which two QBs NOT to pick.

Watch the clip I posted above and see if ANYTHING resembles Teddy....at all.

Questioning his arm strength. Start with this play. He's on HIS 45 yard line and throws to the endzone for a touchdown. There are more too. A couple more 50+ yard bombs. I cut out a lot of Trey's rushing TDS at the beginning of this video.

I really like the top half of the mock and am iffy on the back half. Overall, it's a good draft.

Sewell and Slater won't both be gone before #5 and the next couple of teams are looking at defense or skill positions. Cincy can move back and still either get Sewell, Slater or possibly the choice of the two. They are in a cherry spot at #5. I don't think it would take much to move them back 3 spots to #8.

That among other things; I was primarily referring to us taking Mac Jones with Trey Lance still on the board.

Want a good laugh, read PFFs latest mock. Somebody Has Been in the Good Stash!

One day I will keep my eye on, March 12th. Also, Pro Days typically go into April so I think more will be added/announced. Many schools not on that list.

We won't have to. All 4 QBs going before pick 5 is so highly improbable that isn't not worth fretting over. No reason to be all nervous to jump to #3. The 5th pick is only 300 points on a trade value chart from #8. Even for QB inflation, you are not talking about much more. We sit tight if we think one falls or move to up to #5. Watson will cost us A TON MORE than moving up to #5.

Best movie of all time! Yes, I'm very serious Shirley.

I hope so, but Lance is moving ahead of Fields on some BBs. I'm not sure if it's more confidence in Lance or less confidence in Fields.

If we trade up, it had better be for Lance. I'm really hoping the Falcons fall in love with the local kid and leave Trey on the board for us.

So now we have at least 4 WRs with NFL experience under wraps for next season, plus a few developmental guys. No need to press for a WR in the draft.

I can see what the brass is up to now. Trimming the fat with the cuts last week while re-signing key backup/rotational guys to the roster. Back filling the lower end of the roster doesn't dent the cap space very much while keeping the shopping list to a minimum once FA does open.

Samuel insurance. It makes sense.

That means we would only have to move to #5 in a trade with the Bengals ahead of the Eagles, which I've said numerous time. We don't have to move up to #3. Also, if it's Fields remaining and not Lance, I don't move up at all and roll the dice he falls to #8.

Seriously, I take their 7th this year with and conditional 6th in 2022. I think that is more than fair. I wouldn't give them any picks, we need them after the cap casualties last week and I honestly don't think they are done yet.

A day 3 pick or a player-for-player swap is the best I think we could do. I'd take a cold ham sandwich AND offer to pet sit Belichick's dog for free while he goes on vacation. You think he'd settle for that?
