Atleast we would be able to enjoy a top 10 pick with Watson we won’t have that for 3 years 

We couldn’t trade for pics in future years? And we would be hoping they could turn out 70% as good as Watson. Just get the guy. Mac Jones isn’t the answer.

On the latest podcast to pros they talk about Jones at the senior bowl and say he is the real deal.  Has everything you want in a qb except he has an average arm.  Not weak but simply average and the ball doesn’t zip out of his hands.   Disappointing 

 

they also said Newman has a great arm with a ton of zip but he just isn’t accurate.   
 

not sure which I would roll the dice with if it came to that.  Probably Jones since they said he can process things incredibly fast on the field.   I wish there was some way we could trade down pick some top tier lineman in the first and snag Jones in the 2nd if lance or whoever doesn’t fall to 8.

Two teams met with jones , Patriots and saints if that says anything draft this man before they do he is a solid pocket passer , he is smart and accurate . Drew Brees and Brady were never known for having rocket arms and look at them Super Bowl winning qbs , you know who isn’t a Super Bowl winning qb ? Deshaun Watson that y’all want to dump 3 first rounds and a couple 2nds for are y’all crazy ?

The things I value most are reading a defenses, making progressions, timing, anticipation, accuracy and pocket awareness. Jones seems to have those at an elite level. His arm strength isn't elite but it looks to be adequate and has solid touch on his deep balls. Seems worth the shot. I would insist on him getting into better shape though. He doesn't seem to have taken nutrition and fitness very serious in HS and college.

It’s crazy to me to think that elite coach Nick Saban couldn’t get him in a little bit better shape.

Say the same thing about Big Ben right ? And he has two super bowls and who doesn’t ? Deshuan Watson ! Look at the gross ugly Stafford trade makes me puke what they gave up for him , now ask yourself are you willing to give up 5 first rounders and teddy for Watson and watsons huge contract ? I’m not we have the #8 pick we can pick Mac jones or draft devonta smith and get trask in the 2nd or  get Allen Robinson or juju in free agency and draft Kyle putts and trask in the 2nd . Spending money for a qb that is average is terrible when you can draft one !

You are calling Watson average? And your suggestion is draft Mac Jones or Kyle Trask?

From my stats and algorithms those are the best two behind Trevor Lawrence, we are not getting Lawrence so it’s one of those two. A solid 3 is tre lance but it’s hard because he has a sample size that’s too small .  Best qbs in this order as follows :

Lawrence 

Mac jones 

Kyle trask 

tre lance 

fields is a sure fire bust , worse than Haskins , Wilson is similar to Ryan tanner hill when he was in Miami, his talent is based on his team .

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
