Moving up a single spot might not cost a heap.

And as mentioned elsewhere, the guy holding the #5 pick is old friends with Dan Morgan.

Yeah I think the Giants have #5 but they may be drafting a QB themselves unless Jones suddenly gets it.

He was the best rookie QB on the field last year in a generational draft

Yeah I misread you. I read it as you saying if Pickett was more athletic than Jones you'd be happy, hence my comment.

I'll argue that Lawrence is still better given that his situation with Urban Meyer and lack of decent supporting players was not advantageous at all, and Mac Jones was placed in a much better situation to succeed, but I digress.

Obviously all these teams dealing QBs do not think there is a franchise 1st round QB in the bunch. That includes the Panthers who went after Desahun Watson.

So, get a QB, just not with a first round pick. It would be like drafting Sam Darnold or Mitchell Trubisky in the 1st round.

Use the 1st round pick on an impact player that starts day 1.

You'll be sad when you realize Pickett, Willis, Howell, and Strong can't beat out Darnold in year 1. Ridder and Corral are the only QBs in this overhyped group that have a shot at beating out Darnold imo. They should not be taken in the 1st round.

Of all the QBs in the draft. Ridder, Corral, Glass, and Coan have the potential to start year 1.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
