Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting

Really interesting O-Line info here:

https://www.profootballnetwork.com/n...-class-rising/

Some excerpts…

…sources close to the Panthers tell PFN that right now, it comes down to a pair of players for Carolina – Charles Cross or Ikem Ekwonu. However, it’s questionable that Ekwonu lasts until the sixth pick.

…Penning could come off the board as early as No. 10 to the New York Jets. I’ve been reporting since the Senior Bowl that Penning is a favorite of general manager Joe Douglas.

… I’m hearing the latest Penning comes off the board is pick No. 14 to the Baltimore Ravens. The franchise recently signed Morgan Moses, who played with the Jets last season, to a three-year deal. Yet, upon inspection of the contract, it reads like a one-year deal. Thus, the Ravens want to come out of this draft with a young offensive tackle.

The more I think about it, the more I think we plan on drafting a QB @16. People in the know say we want to come away with a QB and I just don’t think you give up the draft capital that we did for any other position.

What people in the know are saying we want QB? I know Mike Triplett feels we are in win now mode and doesn't see spending a high pick on a QB, especially in this year's weak crop, as making sense. I tend to agree. I honestly don't see any of the available QB's in this upcoming draft having any more potential than what we already have in Winston. He's only 28 years old and could conceivably be our starter for the next seven or eight years.

Personally I wouldn't want any of the QB options coming out this year in the first round. If none are clearly worthy of top ten consideration then they really aren't worth considering anywhere in the top round. The bust potential is extremely high on all of them. These are the least hyped crop of QB's in the past decade. There has to be a reason for that.

I don’t know. I can’t scout QB’s at all. There’s way too much off-field and cerebral stuff that goes into a QB’s success that we don’t really know about.

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting

2022 has a stacked field of WR's/quality o linemen & by most accounts, "experts & many scouts" are saying that this is a below-average list of prospects at QB ...

Selecting a QB at 18 would be a serious reach.

Just my GM couch coach opinion though.

Not going to get any disagreement on that from me. But… it only takes Dennis Allen liking one of the QB’s. We have to be prepared for that possibility.
