It’s considered bad because there us no true number one and a large drop off after 5/6. Once you get past Howell/Ridder there isn’t much NFL caliber guys period. I just don’t think this really affects us where we are picking. It’s a bad year to be picking number 1 or if you are wanting to gamble on a later option QB. Pickett, Willis, and Corral are considered first round talent and Howell/Ridder I’ve seen on the cusp of 1st/2nd. 

IMO, Pickett/Corrall are late 1sts, Willis is a 2nd and the others are 3rd or lower.

That's why you pass this year and either pick the best LT on the board or trade down. Snatch a FA QB or a QB for a lower pick trade for a 4th or 5th in next year's draft (or this year if they can get the extra later round picks). Smartest move they can make this year. Unless they want to roll with Darnold or Walker and rinse and repeat.

Simm's opinion(I know he has his own thread) was that Pickett and Corrall were the only 2 that might be worth a first rd pick. He didn't ACTUALLY say this, he just said that the other 3 were not. Also, NONE were top 10 picks.

I admit that I don't know poo about this year's QB class having only seen Howell play in an actual game instead of highlight film.

Sign Brown. Trade back. Acquire a mid round 1st, 3rd and a 2023 1st. Draft a QB somewhere (maybe Howell). Roll with two 1st round picks and a full draft in 2023. If the QB dice roll doesn’t work this year we probably have a top overall 2023 pick and another 1st. Take Stroud…..keep moving. 

Unless we happen to grab a vet QB prior to the draft this is the best option. Get a LT in Brown, grab a QB mid round 1 & draft BPA round 3. You could still possibly get Pickett, Corral, Howell or Willis.

    • Per Adam Schefter: https://x.com/AdamSchefter/status/1920523706624823739 Expected, but just want to rub it in here.
    • I try to keep up and project the roster with color-coded charts.  You can see priorities and gauge who has the best chance of making the roster--you can see the priorities as well.  Here, Yellow is a 2025 draft pick, green is an undrafted free agent, and orange is a free agent. The depth chart will obviously change and I am not sure about roles (positions in all cases), so that is not the real issue at this time, but yellows and oranges show how the team focused on which aspects of the defense:     In the front 5, there were 3 draft picks, 3 free agents (not including players we re-signed), and two undrafted players signed. In the back 6, there was 1 draft pick and 2 free agents (LB, S), and four undrafted free agents. The undrafted free agents are always long shots, but by identifying them, you can tell which longshots might make the roster.
    • The rise of analytics in sports goes back to the use of sabermetrics in baseball.  The ironic thing is that the whole point of Bill James work was to objectively figure out each players contribution to to a team's wins throughout the season.  This is possible in baseball because each at bat is essentially a 1v1 with an objective outcome.  Applying statistical averages also works a lot better with hundreds of plate appearances over 162 games a year. PFF grades plays subjectively, and then puts them into buckets.  They then create different statistics based on those buckets.  That's all well and good and I'm not saying it's useless.  But calling it analytics like it's some kind of objective science is a far cry from what is actually going on.
