Garrett Wilson has all the traits to be a star right out the gate. No guarantees  about surpassing Waddle or Smith but both of those guys have question marks too. 

Garrett Wilson and Jameson Williams are on that Waddle/Chase tier.  Chase was insane but people forget how good of a year Waddle had with Tua and Brissett in and out.  I'd peg both clearly ahead of Smith.  

 

Elsewhere:

Regarding the Jermaine Johnson Jr. front (he's been my choice for the Jets at 4), could be happening.

JJ Jr. (and Ickem) appear to be the names with the most smoke for them for NYJ.  If that happens, whoever is left of Sauce, Thibodeaux, Walker, Stingley could be hard for NYG to pass up.  Have no idea

Yeah Waddle is a baller too but I like the way Wilson attacks the ball. He plays way bigger than his frame would seem. All good players tho and I told one guy that the Jets never do anything  conventional  lol. Not saying J J will be bad but that seems steep at 4. The Pickett thing is really eating at me tho.  If we doing this, just to save Rhule job bc he the most ready,  then we in for a poo show. Pickett game tap just doesn't pop for me and looks like a carbon copy of Darnold college highlights.  If we trade back, I'd rather go the Baker route.  Not my favorite  Qb but that draft capital  in round 1 could help the next coach better if Rhule gets axed.

I don't want Pickett but man it would really suck to be a QB drafted by us knowing you have to pretty much win 8+ games off the bat with an unliked coach to save the team from resetting and keep the crappy coach. And if not, then being an underperforming sophomore for a rookie coach that he didn't handpick.

At this point, there’s reportedly at least 3-4 guys each teams are floating/been tied to at each pick in the top-5 haha 

JAX 1-Aiden, Neal, Walker, Ekwonu

DET 2-Aiden, Walker, Sauce, Willis

HOU 3-Sauce, Stingley, Neal, Wilson

NYJ 4-JJII, Thib, Ekwonu

NYG 5-Cross, Sauce, Stingley, Ekwonu, Thib

This is shaping up to be such a tossup

Bingo. Most likely, a new coach is here next year hoping to flip Pickett for a 3rd while he targets another QB. It is what it is. This is what we signed up for when we kept Rhule.

    • I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.
    • Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.
    • The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard. The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.
