We pick 144, 149, 199, and 242 today. I don’t even think it’s worth it to draft for need at this point in the draft. Just bring in BPA/athletes.

I thought they gave up 144 to trade up for Corral? I was drunk last night so you'll have to forgive me.

Gotcha. I was lit last night so forgive me.

I'm really interested in who Howell goes to. Zappe may go undrafted. This draft is crazy.

Howell is just ridiculous value right now. I had a slightly higher grade on Corral but at some point he’s going to have to be BPA on someone’s board. I could see a team not even necessarily needing a QB just draft him anyways and maybe you can develop him some to raise his value and flip for higher picks in the future. I feel bad for Howell this slip wasn’t warranted imo. I think so many teams are just telling themselves they’ll go QB next year.

I can’t remember the last time a QB as good as Howell was there on Day 3.

Some names I'd like to see for us

Calvin Austin III WR

Isaiah Likely TE

Zach Tom OG/C

D'Marco Jackson ILB

Justyn Ross WR

Hassan Haskins RB

 

I'd love Zach Tom and Justyn Ross.

I'd also like Isaiah Likely but with Tremble last year and resigning Ian Thomas I doubt it happens.

Like I said last night very few coaches have the luxury of taking on a developmental qb. Most are in win now mode and none of these guys are ready to start right away. All of them need a year to learn an nfl offense and learn how to read nfl defenses. Pittsburgh has the luxury of taking a shot with Pickett because if he fails Tomlin isn't going anywhere.

OL is the most common hits in those numbers. Hell, I say use them all on OL. One hit and it's worth it.

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
