Turning Attention to the Draft

There is no QB in this draft aside from Ward that is worth a move up. And I think the QBs next year are better than Ward. This QB draft is weak and selling draft picks to move up to get one is stupid.

If you can get one of them in the 2nd or 3rd round and you want to take a flyer I can understand. But in doing that, you might be passing on a solid pick that may be able to help immediately.

Garret Nussmeier isn't better than Ward or Sanders and is more in line with a Jaxson Dart. It might a deeper draft class for QB's next year but the top of the class isn't really head and shoulders above this one.

The coach should put their name on it.

Woah!

But then again, if interested wouldn't you try to devalue the player? That's why this time of year is called the "lying period" by many.

That's a great draft. I don't think Dart is falling to 40 though.

I don't see any QB worth the number 9 this year, but we need to draft one at some point.

I'm with Rez, though. Never Shough. Watched some film of Kyle McCord from Syracuse and there were some things to like there. Getting him in the third or beyond might be nice.

With ninth pick, I'm hoping for Membou or Walker now. May be some others I'll be excited about depending on who's there.

And I'm still intrigued by Milroe. Weird how he's getting no love.

It’s come out thst if he returned to the gumps most of the skill players would have entered the portal. If I can find the link I’ll post it

He's being compared to the bust Anthony Richardson.

Edit: Not saying I agree, but it's what I am reading and hearing.

Right now I'd say he's Taysom Hill with a stronger arm and maybe even less accuracy. 4th round and later? I'm not mad at the experiment.
