Are You Really Against Fields or Lance if they fall to #8...

Is Wilson really a given at #2? Everyone assumes it but I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if it's Fields. Many still think he's the clear #2 behind Lawrence, despite Wilson being the talk of the town more recently. Jets could have their cards very close to their chest and be targeting Fields. Lawrence is the only pick that is 100% set in stone.

Fields was #2 QB right after the end of the college season. I put more stock in that.

i think you strike while the iron is hot if one of the QBs falls to #8 because Darnold is to big of an unknown at this point ?.that also makes Darnold compete or let's say pushes him in camp in order to win the starting job instead of basically being unopposed. Then moreover on top of that if they both look good in camp even better especially if you draft Trey Lance who has the most potential.

Yea people just repeating profiling assumptions. So sad.

Yeah exactly. Can you imagine the crap Fields would be getting if he was the one who got a DUI his freshman year. “Off fields issues” would be in every draft profile of him. Mac Jones on the other hand...

“Was a turning point in his career.” It’s pretty sad. Fields was off the charts (literally) in that aptitude test for athletes. The man might have a photographic memory like Rodgers and Lebron. 
 

(this is no way hating on Mac, he was a 18 year old kid when that happened. It’s just to show you he gets different treatment.)

    • Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.
    • When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
    • We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.
