Crazy new mock from Zierlein

Has Atlanta giving us their #4 pick so we can get a QB. 


Pick
4

Carolina Panthers
(via Falcons)
TRADE

Trey Lance
North Dakota State · QB · Sophomore (RS)
Matt Rhule is building for the future and a great way to do that is grabbing a dynamic talent who can sit early on. Moving up -- from No. 8 into the Falcons' No. 4 slot in this exercise -- might be the only way to get him.

Atlanta isn't trading us their pick without us giving up an inordinate amount of capital. In short, we'd have to drastically overpay to get #4. It would literally be cheaper to trade for #3.

Right....does he even know the teams are in the same division??  No way they are helping a division rival get their QB.

So, who the hell is Zierlein, and why should I care what this obvious fool is saying again?

 

(Not a shot at LP in the slightest. I'm sure you put it here for us to be shocked by and subsequently laugh at this clown, just no idea who this person is)

Zierlein's been doing this for a while. He's generally pretty good.

This one, though? Eeeehhh...

Cool, I stopped being lazy and just figured it out. Linky below:

None of their 'draft analysts' have ever really impressed me, but this one does make for some interesting and laughable material for sure. Thanks LP!

And here's the video explaining why...sort of.

Basically just states we're building out the process and trading up to grab a QB makes sense w/TB still here so they can sit the new guy a year. Doesn't really explain why Lance over Fields or Wilson though (or why Atlanta would be stupid to trade to a div rival), which is kind of a big portion of what an analyst is supposed to do. So, a mix of unexplained conclusion and blatantly obvious takes.. not really impressed.

This is right. This year gone full overload with trying to get the most bizarre mock draft for clicks. They are not my thing, even the best mock experts get about 7 picks right and they are normally in the first ten picks. This year, just pushes me away much harder.

    • Maybe, but a player can also bust for a lot of reasons.  And I'm not about to go look up the stats of all the 1st round WR busts, but I'd be surprised if they had the sustained output and success in college that T-Mac had.  Those early WR busts are usually guys who had one breakout season and then were highly drafted because of physical potential, not already built out ability. I'm not even saying T-Mac is 100% going to have a better career than Chark (although I obviously think he will). I'm just saying that right now, his skill level and ability is better than Chark's ever was, and I don't understand how anyone is arguing against that, not because of T-Mac, but because of who Chark himself was.   If you want to take the argument that you can't say ANY player who hasn't played a down yet can't be considered better than someone who has, then so be it (even though I'd say that's a dumb stance anyways). At his peak ability, Chark was more like a #3 WR than anything else, he was the definition of a league average WR.  If you don't think a Top 10 selected WR with his tape is better than that just because they haven't played in the NFL yet, then you're just stuck on the "he hasn't played a down yet" idea and can't evaluate them as players and abilities.
    • And you would've probably said the same thing about a lot of highly drafted WRs who busted.
    • dude..........   You are way to emotional here
