2025 NFL Draft - Day 2 Discussion

He can't make all the throws in the NFL. He won't have Travis Hunter out dueling two DBs to catch wounded ducks at the next level.

Take away Hunter’s yards and TDs and he still had 3000 passing yards and 22 TDs last year. That’s throwing to guys that probably aren’t getting drafted. I’m just saying the guy clearly has talent and shouldn’t fall this far. Sure he was overhyped but the NFL is sending a message IMO.

No I...personally didn't have him rated that much higher than Ewers. I thought they'd be Day 2 guys but quite a few prospects slid further than I thought. 

 

Lots of safe stuff Shedeur likes to run, never on time, takes more boneheaded sacks than Fields does right now or Cam ever did. And then there's stuff you can't coach better like lack of arm and not overly mobile.

There is no NFL in the draft, it's individual teams. If one thought he'd improve their team, they'd take him, not send some kind of alleged message.

The message is one already known. The NFL doesn't want drama and distractions from backup QBs.

The Golden Calf of Bristol, Kaepernick, late career Cam... we've seen this play out before. If you're not a starter you can't come with drama and/or distractions.

This dude has to be my favorite target for R4. I'd trade up for him immediately.  Very solid saftey with tons of experience and production in college. Only real knock is hes pretty small. Definitely free saftey and not strong imo. Which is what we needed anyway.

A QB with 150+ TDs and nearly 20k passing yards barely got drafted in the 3rd and the narrative was that it was absurd he got drafted over Sanders while people pointed to Sanders' stats. This stuff is absurd. Y'all bought into a hype train. St this point in the draft the NFL is shopping for backup QBs and they don't want drama out of them. That's why Shedeur is toxic.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
