2024 Early Bird Draft Thread

2-4 is a good place to be. The new regime can draft whoever they want essentially. Stay put, move up, move down...whatever they want to do.

I foresee a Joe Hortiz GM and Mike MacDonald HC future, that Monday night beatdown of the whiners sealed the deal.

I'm not opposed to a defensive first coach but I would prefer someone that is offense first.

I’m with you, but this guy is like Demeco Ryans and we might regret it. As long as he surrounds himself with a solid OC.

Interesting article for you Maye vs Williams. https://raisingzona.com/posts/last-nights-bowl-games-showed-arizona-cardinals-roll-they-draft-quarterback-01hjscec59hp

Washington Twitter is a wild place lol. It’s going to be brutal hearing about Caleb Williams / Maye for the next 5 months

X is insufferable. It seems to be infested w/ Caleb fan boys.

If you don’t take into account Lincoln Riley’s system into the evaluation, you shouldn’t be evaluating anything football.

Did anyone watch the other night?

Agree but film also doesn’t lie. Caleb really can make some shit out of nothing similar to Allen and Mahomes. I need to watch more of Maye I’ll post some clips in here of both soon

I like the athleticism, off script and arm. I’ve seen some high quality play and I’ve seen him play like garbage. Also he didn’t deliver this year period. This was suppose to be USC year. He didn’t lift that team.

I watched him live 2-3 times this year, I’ve seen him sit back with 4-6 seconds to throw…he will still miss some throw even with that time.

Also I’ve seen them drop him way back behind the line…Kyler style. Not good.

What I care about for the QB prospects:

1.accuracy under pressure,
2.accuracy under 2.5 secs to throw,
3. accuracy at depths with percentage of throws to each: behind the line, short, medium and deep.
4. Does he throw his receivers open? Does he throw with his receivers coming out of breaks? Anticipation. We’ve seen Sam do this and it’s an extremely high IQ skill to the position.
5. How did he lead the team in pressure situations? Competitiveness. Work. I don’t want kyler Murray lazy ass type here. I don’t want Haskins in here about his brand.
6. Everything else matters in context…especially scheme and character

Chico, you have valid points except for 4. Howell is a low IQ qb that doesn’t anticipate throws very well. He is often late and throws behind WRs. This is the main reason he leads the NFL in pick 6s.

Also, Caleb is slightly* taller than Howell but doesn’t seem to be an issue for Sam supporters.
