I like Pickett a lot and would have no issue taking him top-10, but we MUST address the OL before putting a rookie QB on the field.

You don't have to put him on the field, you can let him sit on the bench for a year.  If you wait to get your QB to when everything is perfect you might never find one.

If a QB that you like is available, you take him if you have that opportunity.  If you draft an OL this year there is no guarantee there will be a QB you like the following year, or even if you like one, he might not be available where you pick.

I'm not saying you force the pick this year, maybe its next year where a QB is available to you where you pick.  My point is they are hard to find, if you like one and he is available take him

Having watched Willis against Mississippi State, I'd have to agree.

For the record, Brugler doesn't have WIllis going in the first. Pickett, Howell and Corral are his first round passers, with only Pickett going top ten.

Go check out his games against other P5 teams and upper end G5 teams. It's really bad.

What is your idea of 1st round caliber?  Luck and Trevor?

What about Watson?  Mahomes?  Lamar?  Herbert?  I guess you wouldn't draft them either.  There will be a QB this year that will have a similar grade to those 4 on most teams boards.

 

At the time I wasn't a huge fan of Lamar. Other than that, all 1st round caliber guys.

To be honest, I’d say that Burrow, Tua, Herbert, Lawrence, Wilson, Lance, Fields and Jones all would be or have a high probability to be the top QB taken this year. We really have fallen into the Marty 2.0 mode of draft preparation where we reach for need positions in the worst years and ignore them in deep years. We went with Little in a bad OT class/great IOL class and went DT in a strong OT class. We also went expensive middling to bad vet QBs in two decent QB classes and now I’ll likely go QB in one of the worst QB classes in years.

Everyone keeps saying that none from this class would have gone before the top 4 last year.  Good chance that Mahomes, Watson, Lamar, and Rodgers wouldn't have either.

Trubisky went before those guys.  Those guys had question marks. 

 

 

Yeah, I was definitely not a Trubisky fan.

They didn't have similar grades. I literally told you my grades for them. How are you arguing my grades when you asked me for them? I don't even understand how that's a thing.

You really had Mahomes as a first rounder? I thought he played in a gimmick offense. Obviously I was wrong… 

In the first round? Yeah, not as high as he went. 

I get the "Texas Tech gimmick offense" thing. He just seemed to have more NFL tools than their average "system" QB. 

Would I ever have predicted him to be what he has become? Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck no.

I do wonder what would have happened had Trubisky been drafted at a more reasonable position than #2 overall.

Two things:

I think we will be picking a lot higher then 10.

 

Is Pickett a top 10 qb?  He had a great year, makes nfl throws but damn I just dont know.  When you pick a qb in the top 10 and he doesnt work more times than not your poo is fuged for a long long time

Our poo is already fuged.  They need qb's, yes plural.  The oline is right there with it I agree.  But they are looking at 5 needed starters and several decent backups between the qb and oline positions.  That is pretty fuged of you ask me.

Hard to say. As always, I am a big believer in the NFL being a self motivating league. If you have "it" then you will work to be the best and success will come at some point. 

If you never see Trubisky ascend above a journeyman backup player then he was probably what his detractors said about him at the time, a one year wonder that got overdrafted in a weak QB draft.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
