Chris Simms: Jalon Walker is the most overrated player in the draft

Meh, he has big upside. Worst case he is more wasted physical talent. I still prefer a trade back and an extra pick early. Lots of meh at top 10 value this year but that isn't big picture long term terrible. Just meh.

Yeah, Jalon is a polarizing prospect. On positive side, both Dane Brugler and Mike Mayock love him and think he's gonna be a star

Mike Mayock drafted Celin Ferrill. I wouldn’t trust his advice about dline prospects. Same thing with Bill Belichick loving Xavier Leggette. It was actually a red flag based on how poor he has drafted wide receivers.

And Maxx Crosby.

XL is not done. I wouldn’t write him off just yet.

Simms is wrong a lot.

He is but it’s stupid to point at his 2022 draft rankings to show he sucks. There were 4 guys at those positions (QB, RB, TE and WR) that made a single pro-bowl. None of those guys made more than one pro-bowl. McBride (his 2nd TE), Purdy, Jake Ferguson (had to be a replacement) and Kyren Williams. So, 3 of the 4 skilled position pro-bowlers were day 3 picks, i.e. on no analysts top 5 lists and the one 2nd rounder was his 2nd TE.

His rankings look bad, but that’s because the QBs absolutely sucked that year and the skilled positions weren’t either. Some solid defenders but terrible offensive players.

To be fair the QBs are just pick your favourite trash can 

Exactly, mocking a ranking of top 5 QBs in 2022 is stupid. No top 5 QB list in the 2022 draft had anything. The only person I remember saying they liked Purdy was Rhule but he played against Purdy several times. Rhule also was on the hot seat and not in control of the draft anymore. That said, Purdy would have been awful on the 2022-2024 Panthers.
