Where is Kyle Trask ranked in this year's draft? He's looked good tonight.

Recommended Posts

I haven't watched much college football this year. Tonight is the first time I've seen Kyle Trask play. Check out his stat line 26-40 3TDs with no INTs. He helped the Gators put up 46 points on Alabama tonight in a hard fought game they could have won had the defense just played a little bit better in the first half (they have up 35 points) We all know Trevor is going #1. But how are the other QBs ranked?

Justin Fields was considered the #2 at the start of the season. But I think you could make a strong case for Mac Jones and/or Kyle Trask now. Based on tonight's performance I wouldn't be disappointed at all if we grabbed Trask, which could happen since we're picking inside the top 10 this year. I'm sure most of you on this board have followed him more than me. Do you think he's legit?

He’s late first or early second. Jones and Trask should not leapfrog Fields to be the second QB off the board. 

I haven't seen Fields play at all this season so I can't give any assessment on him.  I assume he'd be the 2nd QB off the board (prior to our pick). If he's gone before  we are on the clock could you see us taking Trask?

Not at our current slot of 4. I could see us trading back into the end of the first to get him or taking him if he is still available in the second. The issue people have with him is that he lacks elite velocity. His arm is just average. He also cant run like Lawrence, Fields, Lance or Wilson. People believe to be a high pick you have to be elite in something. I think Trask is the best QB in college football this season but he has limiting factors. You also can’t just think he will have NFL success because of his college success but if he goes to a team like the Steelers he’s in a really good position to succeed at the next level.

If we take Trask over Wilson my head will explode. After watching Fields today I’m tempted to say Wilson should be QB2 and we need to root for the Jags to take Fields at 2

I know it's wrong to stereotype people, but I'm leary of drafting ANY Ohio State QB high in the draft. I've been watching pro football since the late 70's, and I can't recall any QB from that school excelling in the NFL. As a GM, I'd trade down and pick up extra picks before I'd draft Fields.

 

Ok, I'm ready for you guys to go off on me now :fear:

That’s what I’m saying. I’m almost glad we’re at 4 instead of 2 (assuming it holds) because I think we get the better QB in Wilson

What scares people about Ohio State quarterbacks is the same thing that scares them about Alabama quarterbacks. It's the question of "Sre they really that good, or are they just playing on a team that's head and shoulders above everyone else?"

Troy Smith probably didn't do Ohio State any favors on that front.

I'm so out of the loop this season (hectic life, Covid-19, etc) that I don't even know who "Wilson" is.

Jordan Love but less physically gifted. Strong arm, but not as strong as Love. Good legs but not as fast as Love. Neither one plays great competition so it’s hard to project. A team like the Packers could afford a pick like that because he can sit for years.

I'm of the thought that if you aren't comfortable drafting a guy at 4 but feel better drafting him later in the 1st or early 2nd, especially at QB, then you don't take that guy at all.  If you feel he's your guy, you would take him as early as you can, and if you're not sure he's that guy, you just don't take him.  Guys like Trask, Wilson, and Jones seem like those type of guys to me, which is what makes me rather avoid them.

    • I mean....no lies detected. See above. We have traded a fortune to draft a guy #1 overall that people have lowered standards for to the point that not playing like Jimmy Clausen and looking like a poor man's Kyle Allen occasionally is worthy of a contract extension making him one of the highest paid QB's in the league. That is cope on steroids.
    • summary: "let's talk about your draft, what did you think about Freeling" Dan:   guys with a huge upside, can come in and compete to start.  High ceiling "he does what for your offense?" Dan:   it's hard to find left tackles, guys that big and athletic.  We have Icky coming off an injury, we signed Walker, I believe your offensive line can never be too strong.  If we're going to win the game, it's gotta be up front on both sides of the ball, so we make a point of emphasis on making both sides of the front as strong as possible. "how many mocks did you see Monro falling to you." Not many times, left tackles are gonna go a lot earlier than when we took him.  We want to add the best player, in free agency or the draft"  that's our philosophy, to get the best players possible. "Hunter and Brazzell." Dan:  we followed the board.  Lee we felt very highly of him , super strong.  Brazzel so flexible and loose, can open the verticle.  Will Lee we held in high regard. "you take a look at your receiver room, Coker, my goodness, your offensive rookie of the year in Tet.  Lost Rico, but there is Jonathan Brooks. " Brooks coming off two knee injuries, he worked his way back, looking great, fully healthy, will help in pass and run game.  Icky, not sure when he's coming back but we're excited about both "plan on extending Bryce" we'll keep talking, will keep internally.  We believe in him, has such a great grasp of Canales and offense, has improved every year. "he's clearly come back from the benching, the arrow is trending up, where does he feel" Bryce knows where we stand with him, when and if a deal gets done, he knows we feel great with him, we'll get something done at the right time. "if this a prove it situation?" everyone in the building has to prove it, has to earn it. Tmac was everything we wanted, his work ethic, he's so big and talented, but he puts the work in, and is a great teammate. "your level of expectation, the building's level of expectation for 2026 "our goal is to win the division every year, we know we have to earn it.  we have to put the work in every day, proving it on the practice field, and our  guys know that." "schedule" we haven't opened at home in 2 or 3 years.  We love prime time games, hope we get some "  
    • this one is gold:     Bryce has a cult inside the Panthers fanbase that has truly developed some NPC hivemind. I'll never understand how he's captured the true essence of the casual fan like that.
