Dear Mike Mayock

How was Mayock supposed to know Clemmings would have a serious medical issue that scared teams off to this extent?

It isn't like Clemmings is falling because of talent.  He was a flawed prospect, but he was a 1st or 2nd round prospect in this draft.  Medical is just putting teams off and must have been a lot serious than everyone thought before the draft as it isn't like he was the only one mocking him in the 1st.

Forget the injury deal with clemmings for a second. Maycock first list had clemming as the #1, few weeks pass there's the senior bowl. Clem was beatin by everyone, EVERYONE. Maycock kept him there for weeks afterwards, even up til the combine. Then he moved him down to like 3rd after the combine, still waaay too high. Just recently he moved to 5th.

He knows about injurys, he stated it plenty of times in his grading system. It is a impossible task to correctly grade 1,000 some players in his defense. Still he fell off a lot this year in my eyes.

These guys are making educated guesses just to fill space. Nothing more.

I really wish more people knew that. It's just a fun thing to do to pass time in the offseason. Weird when you read a mock draft online and fans make death threats. Like chill

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
