Pittsburgh and Washington both took QBs, maybe we could work a trade back with them

Maybe, but to be fair the quarterbacks these mocks have them taking are expected to fall to their spot anyway.

Probably only happens if they want someone they think will go higher or someone else takes a quarterback early and they panic.

Pickett is a 5th year player so he's very experienced.  Threw for 4300 yards and 42 TD this season.  Has resurrected the previously dormant Pitt program with his excellent play this year.   Pitt won the ACC title in 2021 with an 11-2 record.  He is universally well regarded in the media with ACC Player of the Year, Johnny Unitas award and is currently in the discussion for the Heisman trophy.  

That's a pretty solid record.  Add to that his pro-ready size (6' 3", 220 lbs).

I could think of a lot worse QB prospects for Carolina.

Mark my words - if Carolina passes up on Sam Howell it will be a grave mistake and they will be haunted by it for years. Especially when the Falcons or Saints pick him and he lights up the Panthers twice a year and Pickett is out of the league in 2 years. Pickett fuging blows. 

He’s going to the Steelers

I could get behind it.

I dont know that I like him more as a prospect than Justin Fields last year but I think I like him more or about the same as Mac Jones. 

Biggest issue with these 5 year guys is that they may be as close to their ceiling as they're gonna get. Can you win with them? Absolutely. Is it always better to take the younger guy you can mold? Maybe not. You'd have to trust our evaluation and coaching staff. Not sure I'm fully confident in that aspect of our team as of right now.

Pretty wild Pickett and Mac are only a year younger than Darnold and Burrow

Pickett reminds me a lot of Daniel Jones.  Don't know if thats a good or bad thing, as Jones definitely has some talent and his situation might just suck in NY....BUT if I was running things I would go heavy O-Line in this draft, and try to get my QB next year when much better options are going to be available. 

Also, on the O-Line front, at LT both Cam Robinson and Terron Armstead could both be available.  Either would be great to pair up with Moton.  Still need at least 1 G and probably a C too though. 

And since we’re playing the AFC North and NFC West next year we’ll be in a better draft position to get that QB.

    • Plus he was in the era in which Safety, LBs, and CBs could de-cleat WRs/TEs on crossing routes. He was beyond tough too. Plus those numbers his 4.66 40 time etc....... GameDay with 15 LBs of pads/clothes/tape, he was the fastest guy on the field. In fact I never recall at any point Rice being ran down or "hawked" from behind by any player. He was a gamer and clutch, just like lex Lugar the total package. 
    • Not all talent can be measured with a ruler and stopwatch. His hands, body control, and skills were ELITE. 
    • He did have talent, but if you look at his combine/workout numbers...they are not eye popping like many of the combine freaks are. All the best have talent, smarts, and work ethic. What he was able to do in his 40s, he holds all the records after 40. He had two 1k seasons at 39 and 40, no other WR has 1k after 36. He came back from a ACL tear within 9 months after he turned 35 years old. You know this is the era where ACl was a career derail-er and it took most mortal men took a full 12 months and they were never the same. Only two other players have made catches at that age (40) and neither one was a wide receiver. LOL at Tom being one of them....   I also read or heard, he would have still played if not for ST. He was going to play for the broncos in 2006, I think he would have been 44???, he earned a spot as the #4-6 but the numbers game of having WRs play ST ended his career. He could still get open and play, just no sense in having the GOAT run head first into a wedge on KO duties.....
