One thing everyone seems to agree on is how rapidly he’s been improving. That’s where you make your money as a GM — seeing where someone is heading, not analyzing their past stats

Re: 2024 Early Bird Draft Thread

Kind of getting interesting with Williams

https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/...48a2e00ab61bde

He does seem to be a bit diva ; with NIL he could easily say fuck it this year if he doesn’t want be a Bear

Re: 2024 Early Bird Draft Thread

Wow! that article is very revealing .. the wanting part ownership before a team drafts him only to find out it doesn't work that way .. his dad allready saying stuff that is red flags. It's not a good look and makes me nervous about taking him . I want CJ Stroud type attitude .

I'm a hard pass on Caleb Williams. Hard pass. He has RG3 written all over him.

This. Stroud for as talented as he is, he is as humble as it gets. Gives his teammates all the praise. Love that kid. He's going to do great things in this league.

Re: 2024 Early Bird Draft Thread

One thing that I would want to know about all these QB's is can they play in bad weather? Cause it is obvious that Tua can not play in bad weather. If Miami is ever to make it to a SB they'll need home field.

Obviously Brady was a great QB, perhaps the best ever, but one thing that gets overlooked is just how good he could play in bad weather.

Re: 2024 Early Bird Draft Thread

Options and scenarios ..
I would sit tight at number 2 .. let the bears make there decision and if they take Maye then the offers will Come our way for our pick ( Williams) ..we could get a boat load of picks and probably get Fields for a ham sandwich..,

If Bears take Williams I would take Maye (unless we get crazy offer from NE to move up ) we swap picks and we take Daniels plus NE 2cnd this year or next year First..

I'm just not sold on Williams.. but it's early and luckily we got TOP people making the decision..

Yeah that’s what separates Elite from Good. Tua is a good QB no doubt but he’ll never be elite. He gets compared to Brees often but some forget Brees played in a dome for his glory years.

Re: 2024 Early Bird Draft Thread

Williams has a good arm. Plays in same system Kyler Murray did in college. He NEVER has his feet set and displays poor mechanics. Holds the ball too long.
A bit taller than Murray at 6’, but noticeably slower. He often is chased down from behind, where Murray has faster wheels to get away from defenders.
Couple all that with some questions of character (diva), I’m a hard pass. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYTY...xpZ2h0cw%3D%3D

Play your cards right, and you might end up with bookend tackles and a qb. Maybe Penix or McCarthy in rd 2.
