Willis has an arm, but does he have Darnold field vision, meaning the lack thereof?  That is his knock on tape..limited progressions and avoids routes to the interior of the field.

He has literally never made a throw with anticipation that I've seen.

On This Just In, one of the draft insiders said it would be a fireable offense to draft Pickett or Willis in the Top 10. Hasselbeck also made mention that the comparison from Pickett is Kirk Cousins, and who is ever sitting around with a 1st round grade on Kirk Cousins. This pretty much wraps up how I feel about Pickett. If you don’t shine during a pro day, you shouldn’t be drafted at all.

According to Gantt's "road show" article, our contingent was even bigger than we knew.

The Panthers had head coach Matt Rhule and general manager Scott Fitterer at Pittsburgh Monday, along with assistant general manager Dan Morgan, vice president of player personnel Pat Stewart, college scouting director Cole Spencer, and area scout Eli Montague. They were joined by offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo and quarterbacks coach Sean Ryan.

Damn 😳

The Giants haven't picked up Jones' 5th year option yet.  Maybe this is a reason?  They have been mocked consistently taking Ekwonu if he's still on the board.  If they take Pickett AND leave Ekwonu alone (if still undrafted)....that is a HUGE win for us, IMO.

My pants would not be able to contain my joy....

This is as done as a done deal could be...before actually being done.  The only way Pickett isn't a Panther is if someone takes him ahead of us, smh

Philly likes Willis and they have the picks to move up...could they be that desperate?  If so, why not give us Mishew and swap first rounders?  Just a thought.  Saw that idea nowhere but in my head.  If they want to trade up to the giants to leapfrog the Panthers, it would take the 16th and 20th (approx--going from memory) picks--so they would still have 2 first rounders after that deal--#5 and #15.   Philly took Pickett to dinner, the way I understand it.

      Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it.

      Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.
