Why go for Russ when you can have Brady? Let’s get our new QB in the 6th/7th round!

Brunell Bulger Gannon Jake Delhomme Kurt Warner Theismann hell Brad Johnson NC native got a ring.

Then Bart Starr and Roger Staubach 

They are all waiting to welcome Matt Corral to the club

With at top 5 pick you damn sure better believe he's the answer.  You pass on a generational talent at another position and you bomb with a pick from one to five, as a GM you and your HC aren't going to be around long.

yeah it sure worked out for Matt rhule, gotta play it safe, at the end of the day results are secondary to finding out whose to blame

Yeah we don’t need a Brad Johnson unless he brings that Buc defense with him. Nick Foles won a ring and will be available. Let’s just cut Corral and sign Foles and Flacco with your logic. Hell they are pocket passers too! Perfect!

Any of these 3rd rounders go on IR their rookie year and have the coach that selected them get fired midseason? I know Russ didn’t… (he is also a dual threat so be careful when you bring up his name)

I believe I will live till I am 80 years old.  But I won't know for sure until I actually do it.  

The reality is, you pick the guy you think has the best shot at becoming an NFL star.  You hope that guy is more Peyton Manning and less Ryan Leaf.  But if it doesn't work out, you try again.

Fields was 17-28 which sounds good. But it was for a whopping 126 yards. Good for 4.4yds a completion. He ran for over 180yds. Sounds like a RB that can throw a little. lol at ppl that think this stat line proves he's turned a corner.

 

Running for more yards than you pass. Now that's the new NFL.

Lol at also passing for three touchdowns. His last last on fourth down hit his receiver in the hands and he just dropped it. The bomb the play before was clear pass interference and it didn’t get called adding to to incomplete passes. You sound more like a “looked at the stats guy” who didn’t watch the game when you write stuff like this. 
 

and those touchdowns were dimes.

    • Sometimes you get very valuable information from fantasy football sites. I found an analysis that you may want to read from The Fantasy Footballers. Perhaps you'll gain an insight as to why we moved up and got him. As always, here are a few snippets: "As expected, he dominated in the 2023 season. He averaged an impressive 2.03 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play, which ranks in the 86th percentile among all junior seasons since 2013." "Naturally, after initially playing behind two NFL-caliber running backs, Brooks’ career numbers do not jump off the page. However, his 2023 campaign gave us a glimpse of just how massive his upside could be at the next level. In fact, Brooks is one of only TWO running backs in this class to exceed 2.00 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play within their first three seasons in college."  "If you watch Jonathon Brooks’ film, you will find multiple plays in which he created yardage with his quick feet and lateral agility. He is elusive in open spaces and has an impressive ability to stack multiple cuts to avoid contact. Combined with his impressive burst and acceleration, Brooks can be a matchup nightmare in the second and third levels of the defense." "While Brooks is not the most physical running back, he does have a knack for absorbing contact and bouncing off defenders. You see this time and time again in his film." "He showcased a willingness to initiate contact with the pass rusher, the strength to maintain blocks, and the quickness to adjust to the defender’s moves. In addition, per PFF, Brooks was a top-three running back in the 2024 class in pass-blocking grade last season. He was also one of only two running backs in the class to average a 0% pass block pressure rate, highlighting just how effective he was as a blocker." "In short, Brooks has tremendous upside as a prospect. Even with his ACL injury, I would still be comfortable drafting him in the early second round of rookie drafts. In fact, I would not be shocked if he finished his career as the most productive running back in this class. However, we just need to temper our expectations for his rookie year as he slowly ramps up to full health." Marvin Elequin provides more here (including video clips): https://www.thefantasyfootballers.com/dynasty/2024-rookie-profile-rb-jonathon-brooks-fantasy-football/   Basically, Brooks has the potential to be a beast, and was well worth the 46th pick (and most mocks had him going mid second round anyway). He's not JAG. Someone had to make the move and take him, and we were the ones to do it. He's elusive, has good speed and acceleration, exceptional contact balance, and is an outstanding blocker. Just like any nice RB transitioning to the league, he will need to get used to taking what the defense gives him, while also showing discriminating patience, but he has demonstrated some ability on that front in college. Brooks' only real knock is the ACL. But ACLs aren't career ending anymore, or even skill ending as evidenced by Dalvin Cook, Todd Gurley and others. We'll just need to temper our expectations during his rookie campaign while he gets back to form. Once he does, we'll finally have the talented three-down back that has eluded us since Stew retired.

    • 2.43 : Jackson Powers-Johnson, C, Oregon 2.52 : Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas 3.65 : Junior Colson, LB, Michigan 3.79 : Blake Corum, RB, Michigan 4.101 : Ja'Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas 😎 5.141 : Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, C, Georgia 5.142 : Austin Booker, Edge, Kansas 5.155 : Christian Jones, OT, Texas Note, I traded down from 33 (took the Arizona/Atlanta trade up to 35 - might have actually been able to net an even better deal but whatever, I'll go with this). Took the Rams trade but stayed put at 52 and at the top of the 3rd.
