Re: 2024 Early Bird Draft Thread

Williams has shown red flags on his maturity ... plenty out there to read .. he seems to be on twitter a lot ..
all I can say is this new GM better get this right !!! And there is more to measure than physical skills alone ..

I guess this would also apply to Williams or does he get a pass?

Caleb and Sam are no where close to the same player

Sam was a cool story being a 5th rd guy but he’s not a franchise QB. Caleb Williams can and most likely will be

Had he not torn his knee up I am convinced he wouldn't have been.

Why do you want Dallas to win? If they lose it counts as two losses in our SOS.

I want them to play all of their starters against us so we lose. Don't want a bunch of back-ups in there, that Rivera might fuck up and beat, then screw us one last time on his way out.

If that were true, then the NFL should just cancel the draft. But it's not entirely true. Some competent organizations have staff members who know far more than we do about the players they are evaluating which increases the odds in their favor when they draft a player. We wouldn't know much about that because we've had over twenty years of Dan Snyder's arbitrary draft screw ups instead of competence.

Go through this list and eyeball good QBs on it must are drafted middle to late first round or even later rounds very few of the media darlings hit in the long run

On a side note i also thing a lot of the top prospects go to dysfunctional franchises and just die there; imagine if Bryce Young was drafted by SF
Here are the facts ... I'm telling even the best teams are swings and misses on the QB pick .. read the link .

You guys crack me up w/ your RG talk. It's ok to say he just didn't turn out to be a good QB. He had a lot of time to heal up his knee. He had 2013 and 14 and 15 here in DC and was not good enough and eventually got beat out by Kirk. He had a chance in Clev and just couldn't become a 16 game starter. He simply was not good enough, injury or no injury.

This one is hard for me to accept but you’re right.
That rookie QB was dazzling. The QB that showed up year 2 and after was not a great QB
