I was really hopeful he would be there at #8. But all indications are that there will be a feeding frenzy in the draft with an unprecedented number of teams looking for a QB. Our biggest risk is someone trading up to grab Lance who I think is the most promising prospect after Lawrence. 
 

Am I overreacting?

I would be all for Lance, but he will probably sit and refine his game in his first season.... this board will implode if we draft him and he's behind Bridgewater week 1.... Even if it's the best for him long term.

Not me and I'm arguably one of his biggest supporters here.  In fact, I WANT him to sit at least the first half of the season and will be fine with the entire season.  The one qualifier being he gets some game reps in clean up duty or if we're getting blown out.  I would prefer he gets some spot duty before assuming the helm.

I would expect him to sit and hope that TB would play well as long as he could.

Who would that be?  With all the uncertainty of grooming a young QB, teams with even average starters aren't going to send some sweetheart package for an unknown commodity.  That's the reason the Stafford-Goff trade was so eye-popping.  Two guys that are known commodities in the League.  I don't buy it for one second.  Maybe if the Jags somehow were shopping the #1 pick ( for Trevor) I could see someone packaging something ridiculous, but not for any of the other three.

I agree, but I see this year as being different--for example, I read a Colts site and they are rumored to be targeting Fields.  I think the Panthers might move up.  Denver, SF--a lot depends of free agency.  I think some teams (like the Panthers) prefer an unknown commodity over the known commodities that they have or will be available in free agency.  Gonna be interesting to see how it plays out.

With advance football analytics and me watching hours of college football film which I get paid because of working with stats I’d say it goes Lawrence which is nothing but amazing , possibly the best qb I have ever seen , then Mac jones which is a poor mans tombrady , Big Ben and Sam Bradford all in one , then tre lance which I love as well , but he has a bust rating of 55% which is a couple less than Justin fields which is the riskiest player in the draft , Zach Wilson is no doubt a bust

Wait, are you now pretending you are some kind of analyst? You need to understand we all know that's not true.

      Draft Week Rumors, Leaks and Media Draftniks Final Mocks

      By PleaseCutStewart · Posted

      Hard to interpret some of Brugler's opinions. Capable of running a robust route tree sounds like a lazy thing to say - I'm sure just about every slot TE is capable of running a full route tree... I want to know if he is currently able to (which from tape leads me to a no). Granted, it's pretty common for most receivers/TE not having a full route tree developed before they get drafted. Agility/acceleration after the catch hasn't shown up on his tape (at least his Oregon tape) for those dig/out breaking routes while it has for the seam and slant routes. Agree he has a good physical build and he is very good running seam routes. His build definitely helps him to shield defenders and create a large target point for the QB. Drops were a concern, but it could be focus drops just like T-Mac was/is prone to. Run blocking is an accurate statement, but again, we have only seen him run block in the slot/backfield - inline blocking is a whole different animal. With his athleticism, he definitely has a high ceiling. I just think he also has a low floor and don't like taking that big of a risk on a mid 1st rounder. I think this is a deep TE draft and would much rather target one in the 3rd or later. He's very boom or bust to me - bust in terms of being worth a 1st round pick, not an out of the NFL in a few years type bust. I feel like he gives me Evan Engram vibes. Not saying that Evan Engram was/is a bad NFL player, just that most people would agree he shouldn't have been drafted in the 1st.

      I mean I would love 6-1. It’s funny the hurricanes usually dominate the first game and win by three or four goals. But keep the second game close. It would be nice if it’s the reverse of that tonight.

      Brugler has him as TE1 and going to the Ravens in the first.  Apparently Sadiq's football IQ is pretty high (interviewed very well).  Also he was an WR and CB in high school.  This is why I always thought his route running was solid.  I'm sure it needs some polishing but for a TE it's pretty good. nfl.com Built like a bodyguard with a compact, well-defined frame. Capable of running a robust route tree. Gets in and out of breaks with good snap and separation. Vandalizes defensive seams with impunity against man coverage. Survives collisions with catches thanks to his hand strength. Shows off agility and acceleration after the catch. Fits up run blocks with proper positioning and base width. Grips and presses forward with moving feet to stay connected. -Again I don't know if we should take him but if he goes to the right team he could become a scary weapon at the next level.  I just like him as a prospect.
