haha right

I don’t dislike Smith, but I am always a little wary of drafting guys from complete loser programs. 

Did you feel the same way about Deebo? Much like him Shi was expected to carry the entire passing game on his back because the QB play was just so god awful. 

 

I've been around this board for 10+ years. I've always been pretty realistic. Shi and Jaycee were the only players from last years team I would've drafted.

Mel and the others are raving about the Panthers' draft, even saying it may be the best. They just talked about the Panthers for the last 5-6 minutes straight! I don't think I have ever seen that happen. I feel like I am in the Twilight Zone.

I’ll be honest and say I haven’t been following the draft that long in as much detail as now. Didn’t join here until 2016 and was way more of a FF draft follower before then, i.e. cared way more about the top skill positions and where they went than OL, DL, late round picks etc.

Things I got right over the last 20 years:

Seifert being a joke, Weinke a bust, I believed in Luke, I knew Delhomme was done 2 years before they let him go, and I knew Benjamin would be a bust, same about Butler.

However I was wrong about:

I really thought Moore was going to be the guy in 2010, I didn’t like the Stewart pick in 08, thought Fox should have stayed 1 more year, thought Jake was gonna be the same as Peete in 03 and us draft a QB in 04.

Wow, ESPN getting all excited about us. Kiper and McShay both said Darnold would go 2 this year.

I saw that and this is the best draft I ever remember us having. We’re picking guys on day 3 who have a shot at starting.

Absolutely I did. Hats off to Deebo, one of the few to climb out of that dumpster fire and play like a pro’s pro. Even with a supremely talented guy like Clowney from that program, you see a total loser with a bad attitude who only plays when he feels like it. I hope we see Deebo-like from Horn and Smith, but I am hesitant to be optimistic.

Nice little segment on Carolina. If you treat darnold like a pick it improves the draft grade quite a bit. 

Yea I was saying literally all thread in the thread on day 1 that Darnold would be the #2 in this very draft, and it wasn't from Mel or McShay

    • KP is not a straight up carbon copy but they look awful close to me.  T
    • You are right. At the same time I don’t think people are watching games going come on Bryce put it on the ground or sail it OB or whatever. They just have trouble seeing him turning his 3 or four or five top games of 2025 into the weekly standard outing. Which you expect for the kind of money he will ask for (speaking for myself anyway).  
    • In terms of comparing Pickett and Young's arm talent it's basically a push at best. Pickett is sitting at 6.2 yards per pass attempt for his career while Bryce sits at 6.0 Last season Bryce was 6.3 in yards per pass attempt. Only Justin Fields Spencer Rattler (both 6.2) Kyler Murray (6.0) 41 year old Joe Flacco (6.0) 44 year old Phillip Rivers (5.9) rookie Cam Ward (5.9) and Tyrod Taylor (5.8) had less pass yards per attempt than Bryce Young in his third season as a starter. Folks going around acting as if it is beyond the pale to say Pickett might have a better arm than Young are living in an alternate reality. You can choose to not believe your own eyes after 46 games but everyone else will acknowledge reality and move forward accordingly.
