Mallett on Sports Science

He will be a really good QB if the rumors around him are false.

Considering the rumors have been around for months and there has been virtually zero sources backing it up, I'm assuming it's false until proven otherwise. I personally think he will be the best QB in the draft.

Months?? Try years. I have no idea whether it is true or not. And not having a source that has talked to the media doesn't mean things are not known by NFL teams.

Not saying he did anything. As a matter of fact on my totally worthless QB board I have him second in front of Gabbert.

I'd take Mallet over Gabbert. I think he can be a franchise QB if he goes to the right team.

if we absolutely had to take a QB this draft I'd take Mallett over any of them. don't want a QB at all though unless Mallett somehow falls to the 3rd round(won't happen). damn shame we don't have that 2nd round pick..

There has been zero corroboration of the rumors, but where there is smoke there is fire. (usually) If it is not true, it is a really sad situation, because he would be a serious consideration for #1 if the rumors were not out there.

Mellett is by far the best passer in the draft, but is not even considered a top 15 pick because of either; a habit that will preclude him from any success in the NFL, or the most coordinated character assassination in recent memory.

you would seriously have Mallett behind our line??? wow, if that's the case, i hope Otah stays healthy all year, Mallett is SO slow

would be just as concerned with how he handles pressure etc as any off field concerns.

i am more worried about pressure on the field with Mallett, that speed scares me, i fear that he will be sacked alot, other than that, he's another Cutler.

He will be a really good QB if the rumors around him are false.

i think he will be a really good QB if he's protected and his speed either improves or isnt as bad as i think it is. Mallett has the best deep arm in this draft. Sorry Newton, Gabbert and Locker, but i think Mallett's deep arm is best. Mallett has the deep arm, Gabbert is more accurate, Newton has the most potential with his size, mobility and arm and Locker in my book is the best runner and i would trust him to run an offense too. i think Locker should be picked at pick 10 by Washington, that's where i think he could fulfill his potential because Shanahan did a good job with Cutler and Plummer and those two are who Locker kinda remind me of.

    • 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
