I'm just happy to not see a thread today asking us to trade for Deebo since the 49ers said they're looking to trade him after he asked to be.

He can be a useful player on the right team with the right coaching staff, but his contract is just too big for what he is as an actual WR, where he's average at best, in 6 years he's only had over 892 yards once

WOW, Rappaport just said the Cowboys have had internal discussions about trading Parsons.

Part of me says there is no way I'd ever consider trading for him as it would just cost us too much in draft capital and cap room, but man, him alone could change the prospects of this defense for the next 5+ years in an instant.

Parsons + Brown = good luck opposing OL's

Walker is a Parsons clone

Best I can do is Jadaveon Clowney and Ian Thomas.

If this were remotely true, he'd be widely viewed as the unanimous #1 pick in this draft.

The fact that that's just not the case, tells me this is an incorrect statement.

The fact that he falls into the 2nd round in some mocks, tells me this is a widely absurd statement.  I can't get on board with a player that polarizing at #8, just can't do it.

They would be out of their fuging minds to take a QB at 7 if Sanders and Ward are gone.

I hope it happens.

A lot of analysts said the same about the Broncos drafting Bo Nix at 12. Most considered him to be a reach. They got a lot of Cs and Ds on their draft grades. Yet, he had a productive rookie season and made the play offs.

Back in 2017, there were some analysts calling it a “weak” QB class lacking “elite” talent. Who came out that year? Patrick Mahomes. Most said he had a lot of potential, but only if he overcame bad habits and the shortcomings of playing in an air-raid offense in college. What’s his stat line before 30? About to makE his fifth Super Bowl appearance and goes into it with a 3-1 record.

So I’m always hesitant these days to write off QBs before they step onto an NFL field.

Sure, however this is also widely viewed as one of the worst QB classes in recent memory. The drop off in grades from Ward/Sanders to the field could genuinely and potentially be the 3rd round.

I think the veteran QBs will find a home.  I have no knowledge of who is projected to go where--just guesses.

here goes my prediction, so you will know who is NOT going where:

1. Raiders:  Darnold  (needs a good OL--Raiders have it)

2. Titans:  (Ward, draft)

3.  Jets:  Cousins

4.  Giants:  Wilson

5.  Browns:  Sanders (draft)

6.  Indianapolis:  Daniel Jones

7.  Steelers:  Rodgers

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
