That tweet isn’t some random dude, he’s a Bears reporter. Now that is quite interesting.

Judging from the Panthers pressers, I think it's gotta be Stroud or AR. I'm fine with Darnold as the bridge/camp competition if we get either.

I just can't see him being there at 9. It was already trending that he might not be then he tested out as a superhuman athlete.

I read a blurb about scouting comments from Indy that basically said his combine didn't move the needle that much. He was expected to blow away the athletic marks there but all the questions about him are if he can develop into an accurate passer.

I honestly don't think it is impossible that he falls to 9.

Yeah, if he was 6'3" 220 no one would be questioning him. But he's not. The guy looks like he's 175. I still have a hard time believing that 204 weigh in. He just doesn't look anywhere close to that. If I had him in for a pre-draft visit I'd have him stepping on a scale again. If he refused that would tell me all I need to know about that weigh in.

 

Who the fug cares. Cam was a giant and injuries ended his career. If he’s getting the ball out fast and he’s not taking hits then who the fug cares. A whole lot of 6’3 busts out there.

If we can’t find a spot for Chinn on our new defense, does he become part of the trade? I could also see 9, the CMC picks, plus Burns to get it done. If you swap Burns for Chinn it will take next year’s first also plus possibly more.

If he's there at #9 I'd take Young. (I'd also take Stroud and Richardson)

If we move up to 1 I think it would be for Stroud

Reich had a pure passer that could also run if need be in Andrew Luck his first year in Indy. After that Reich went with guys like Rivers and Ryan.

I know Reich likes a Wentz type style too but you wouldn’t want to be designing too many runs for Young, I don’t think you can mortgage the future for AR, so that leaves us with Stroud

I have no horse in this race. I just want one of Young, Stroud or AR so I’m just thinking over here

He didn't even throw today? He looks like a water boy next to the other guys in this clip, and I'm wondering if he's carrying like 10 pounds of water in his stomach under that hoodie lol. I think It's Stroud or AR for me, then Hooker on day two if we can't get one of those guys. 

 

Thats lol funny and dudes on here want us to go to 1 to get him?  Goddamn thats insane

McCown is the QB Coach, he's not the GM. 

He'll have an input, but it'll be a minor one - he'll coach who he's told to coach.

To be fair, AR does a helluva job avoiding sacks. Cam, even at the end of his career, still had a problem sliding properly on QB runs.

Of course but it appears like they're all engaged and in conversation.  His opinion will hold water and does offer some insight to potential preferences.  No doubt, he's not the decision maker though.

Truthfully, our #39 pick this year is more important to me than the '25 FRP in a package to move up to 1. If we can send the SF 2nd rounder, I'm fine with '24 FRP + '25 FRP to move up for Stroud. 

Tampa is picking 19th overall with an 8-9 record. We should be at the very least, NFCS Champs and a 9-8 record next year. In 2025, one would assume better....that pick should be early-mid 20s. No guarantees with draft picks in this area....at least not like in the top-10 nor a franchise QB. 

We need a top-flight TE at 39. Send the two future firsts, #9 and #60. Draft Stroud. Take the best TE at 39 and figure the rest out in the third round and FA. Re-sign Boze & Foreman - sign Rapp/JJIII and find a DL.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • 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
