So, "Start Pickett" thread when?

And before anyone says anything, this is the same place that had threads wanting to start Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme.

Week 1 would be a safe bet. Start Weinke was a weekly thread.

You never drink corn liquor. You sip it. I've seen many a rookie think they can handle a big drink and end up face down in the dirt 30 minutes later. 

Yeah after it happens to you, at least you get to watch others do the same thing. 
I had never had any and was not warned and it was so smooth. Luckily I ended up n the backseat of a random car not the dirt and was left alone to sleep it off.

You're lucky if you don't wakeup covered in your own body fluids. My first time I woke up behind the wheel of my dad's car and was stuck on railroad tracks. I missed the crossing completely. It was a long time before I touched the stuff again.

Weinke could at least throw the ball. I can see people calling for him in like, preseason 2003. Jake is a legend to me just for 2003 alone. Hell the first game was enough to not forget him. And after we got rolling I can’t imagine calling for Weinke or Peete or anyone.

That’s lucky. Driving on it? I couldn’t walk on it.  I bet that stuff has buried a lot of people behind a wheel.

It happened. Hard to believe but it did. It will happen the first time Young throws a pick or misses a throw. Its inevitable.

I got behind the wheel before it kicked in. As the old saying goes, I thought I had more time. I didn't know it would kick in so fast and I wasn't warned about the sip verses drink effect. Rookie making rookie mistakes.

Well you were lucky and that’s a good thing. You have to survive your mistakes to learn from them.

I didn't sip mine either. I have no memory of it. I just know the pictures all my friends took. Evidently it was something I would have wished I could remembered. Afterwards they said I passed out and the only knew I was alive because they heard my head lift up and hit the floor. Probably should have called an ambulance for alcohol poisoning. Evidently it was good times. I just remember none of it.

Being young. And free. I drank so much on a NYE when I was about 20 I was sick for over a week. Alcohol poisoning for sure. Last time I drank Scotch pretty much. Peppermint schnapps and champaign on top of a bottle of Johnny Walker or Chivas or something. Was on a mission. I completed it. 
Like I said, you have to survive to learn from your mistakes. Somehow I did survive. So far. But I am bad at the learning part.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      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
