Rhule: One QB will be a top 10 pick this year

More likely a team in the later part of the first would want to move up for a DE like Thibodeaux or OT like Ekwonu. My bet is Willis to the Seahawks at 9 is the only QB taken in the top 10. 
 

If Rhule doesn’t think other teams are buying the QB hype, then we need to raise our perceived interest in the top tier players, no matter the position, to incentivize a trade up from the mid-teens or twenties. 

and THEN draft a QB. This sounds like a solid plan if you think Christensen is a starting LT and you can still draft a franchise LG with the new second round draft pick you just traded for.

Every scout, every analyst concedes this year sucks and next year has huge potential.  Multiple prospects 

They do. But the point is that this time last year everyone was taking about Rattler and Howell being clear cut number ones etc. We’ll see what it looks like this time next year. It looks like a potentially strong class next year, but it is far from guaranteed.

Jesus christ dude.  If that's your argument then you probably need some fresh air 

That the top QB draft class didn’t live up to their hype? That the weaker class before had more successful rookie years? Yeah I need a breath or two…

Most every year is better then this year.   this is the worst class, on paper, since like 2013 or 2011.   Its almost a certainty that next year will have better options and furthermore its almost a certainty with Rhule coaching and darnold at qb we will be in a position to either draft one or trade up to get someone we like

After a fuging year with 2 of the 3 having poo show coaching staffs and the 3rd sitting the bench for a year.  You are really trying to grade last years qb?  God damn dude that is retarded

That’s how it always works. The top prospects typically go to terrible teams. My point is if it’s such an incredible class, why did the previous year outperform them on rookie seasons. Because it’s a educated guess based on potential? It doesn’t matter if “every scout” is so low on this class then we won’t take one based on our scouts. So just relax…

I hear you, I’m just not ready to say next year is great yet. Not convinced last years class was great either, but we’ll see.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
