This just in from our "Wait, WHAT?!" department...

There's misinformation, and then there's this.

I think Zack Wilson is the real deal ...  but Lawence adds a billy to your franchise valuation.... let’s be real I rather trade for Lawence then DWatson specially offering (rumored) 3 1st and cmac ....

It's a crazy time. Some smoke screen work, some agents tossing accelerants onto the fires, some folks just trying to make deadlines and generate clicks.

Until the Combine is over, things are going to be amorphous like this. Can't trust any of it right now.

Combine was canceled.

They’re not even having the combine this year, are they?

Yeah, I am not super surprised by that. The sports media tends to be very monolithic about their draft takes. Actually, it's probably more groupthink than anything. The NFL scouting process seems to rarely work this way. 

By that same token, the NFL is a very copy-cat league, so seeing a creative gunslinger like Wilson will probably make some of these guys think about Murray, Mayfield, Mahomes, R. Wilson, etc.

    • Glass houses and all. I find the people who are the most adamant about this type of thing tend to have the most to hide. Careful buddy. 
    • Also, wanted to point out, all 3 of the Pivot guys I respect and appreciate tremendously.  I know RC only had 1 pro bowl, but I loved his game.  He was tough as nails and played with a ton of heart and grit.  He was trying to knock people out, but was also super cerebral.  Fred is obviously a hall of famer and just as tough. Channing made the most of what he had and was hard-nosed as well.  And yet, all three of them let Steve slide on a ton of poo in this interview.  They actually cowered in several moments and I don’t like that at all.  Because for all the things I mentioned in my initial post in this thread, them not trying to reel him back in or hold his feet to the fire on certain bullshit, and feels gross.  Yall were all on the same competitive level as athletes, and yet, yall just let him skate on poo like talking about invoking using a gun on someone, laughing off how he essentially ended two teammates’ careers by BULLYING them and then co-signing it, and letting him completely sidestep accountability about his affair.  I get it, because apparently he invited you to his home to do the interview, but either talk some real poo or don’t do the interview at all.  This was some real softball poo.
    • This season’s leader, Daniel Jones, is averaging 265.9 yards per game, that would rank 12th in 2015. Even going back to 2020, he would rank 10th in passing yards. So it does appear that passing yards is down, but is that because they aren’t as good? Possibly, but we were spoilt in recent years when we had Brady, Peyton, Brees, Rodgers, Roethlisberger, Rivers, Ryan, Stafford (etc). As crops of QBs go, it was an amazing era to watch and most will end up in the Hall of Fame. I’m not convinced you we could list as many potential Hall of Fame QBs from the current crop. Will it go pass heavy again? I think there’s a good chance that it will, but it will require QBs that can consistently air the ball out in the frequency we saw in the 00s and 10s. I think currently coaches are favouring a more balanced approach, if not favouring a strong running game.
