Watching Penix, Jr vs. a horrible Colorado team should be fun. I think his stock will creep ever so closer to late 1st - early 2nd round material. If we go Anderson/Carter R1, I'd like him in R2. 

He could be our new Thomas Davis rebuilt cyborg.

I think he’s snugly into the second round stock. I don’t know what he could do to really get himself into the first round after the last four seasons.

First chance I've had to see Levis in something more than a clip package of highlights. If he's struggling with injuries as I've heard, then why is he out there playing? Can't just be used as a convenient excuse for poor play and questionable decisions. With that kind of in mind, I don't know how he would be a very high pick. Sure, there is lots of potential, but does he make his teammates better? Does he elevate the team? Those are the real checkmarks for a franchise player.

True. I do think the east coast bias is a real thing and lack of coverage for UW. If they can get a tough matchup against an SEC team in their bowl game and dominate, it could help. Medicals at the combine and pro day will be critical. 

If not for the ACL tears and shoulder injury, he checks every other box.

The east coast bias is a real thing for media hype. It's not a real thing for NFL draft stock.

I think it’s the injuries he’s had every year and previously he’s gotten some really bad tape. Lots of guys end up going from East Coast to West Coast a la Minshew, Penix, Nix, Jacob Eason and put up some really great numbers, just to name a few. I think scouts are typically very picky when it comes to guys like that. Seems like a trend where guys can’t stick at their current school, go west and light it up.

I dont know, just sometime a player with injuries is still better than #2 option.....or the guy insist on playing..

      First OTA's Monday and Tuesday

      If you only look at measurables, Mingo and Legette might seem similar.  But when you actually look at them and watch them play, they aren't close to the same.   And this is coming from someone who is skeptical about Legette, although ultimately I believe he will work out.  I've just always disagreed with the comparisons to Mingo.   Mingo tests better than he plays/runs, whereas Legette plays/runs as well as he tests.

      Where will the wins come from? (my early predictions)

      By Mage · Posted

      As bad as things were with the Panthers last year, we still had 4 other games outside of the 2 we won that we came very close to winning.  Could throw the Falcons game in there too, it was tied going into the 4th. I'm not really sure what to expect this year.  I don't think we'll make the playoffs.  However, we play in a very weak division where no team has a standout QB.  On paper, our OL should be good, and could be great if Ikem improves.  That alone could help mask a lot of problems on offense.  Should allow us to run the ball better.  Even if Bryce doesn't improve, the OL should at the very least give him more time to make the easy throws underneath and let a guy like Legette work his magic after the catch. And I think this defense in a 2nd year with Evero should, at the very least, be in the top 16.  I'm expecting our run defense to be as good as it has been in years. I think this team could push for 7-8 wins.  But it could also finish with 2 wins again.  That is just how the league works.  Jets offense was miserable last year, and yet they still won 7 games.   We won't really get a good feel of it until after the preseason, and even then, who knows.
