[Brasher]

**** mate, we'd have noone left if I was a mod. That wouldn't be fun for anyone.

Except me. Cos I love hearing myself talk.

I routinely sms myself telling me how awesome I am... AND you know what?? I'm right!

Bloke is a genuine nutcase. I hope his play can cash these cheques that his big mouth keeps writing

I like the confidence, perhaps play a snap in the NFL before you carry on like a proper m0ng on draft night and on twitter tho.

Read up on his story and see why he might be a bit amped.

Thought this thread would be the ideal spot to look back in a few years (say 2020) time to determine what we make out of the potential on offer in this season's draft.

So after our Dynasty Draft is complete I will revisit this thread with my Top 3 O & D predictions I expect to be lynch pins to their respective teams and the Top 3 O & D BUSTS of course. Also my SLEEPER selection special.

Was thinking the other day how Chism didn't rate Cam Newton, likewise Wizard (regrets trading up to get Mark Ingram??)

I've been raving about Josh Allen for about 12 months now, but this article really does hype him up a lot to a wider population. I think he will be a top 6 NFL QB one day- not bad for a kid who started in Junior College before getting just two scholarship offers- Wyoming and Eastern Michigan. The Cowboys have picked a player from the clouds here

Cleveland nailed the Kizer pick. Better than Trubisky and Watson by three football fields.

Fantastic passer and a good read in the short to medium range.

Early days, but Cleveland have to be happy with Kizer to date.

Was really shocked that he tumbled down the rankings. His showings early in the season far outweighed what we saw at the NC State game (worst conditions I've ever seen) and the Stanford game. Is a fantastic reader of the play and very powerful from both feet. Best QB Browns have had in a long time- at least since Derek Anderson in 2007.

The pre season has been very encouraging for the 4 top qbs. Will be interesting to see how it translates as the year goes along

 

[Brasher]

Should I apply the Brasher jersey curse and take him up on the offer....will be driving a cab by November

Closing in on half way through the season..heres my take on this year's draft class so far in its very early days.

Garrett is a stud. If he was right to go week 1 he might be leading the league in sacks. The browns will have a force at d line for years to come.

Trubisky looks to be a complete qb. Has gone against two very good defenses in his first two weeks and fared well. Hasn't set the world on fire but I think the bears call to sacrifice some picks to get him in my view is a good one. The bears aren't too many pieces away from being a playoff team.

The running back class might be the best ever. Fournette, hunt, cook (till he got injured ) all look brilliant. We have also seen some solid work from later round picks Marlon mack and Wayne gallman. I'm sure McCaffrey will kick it up a notch in the second half of the season as he settles into that role.

After complementing the browns earlier I have to whack them now. They have again passed on a promising young qb on deshaun watson who seems destined for rookie of the year. They were at 12 when watson was sitting there...they again played the analytics game and traded the pick away..and as a result look to finish last again.

Malik hooker looks too be an absolute stud. In my view is the clear best defensive back In the draft. Should have gone top 10. The chargers could have filled the big hole they have at safety.

The top wide receivers in the draft injuries are a slight concern. Havent seen much or anything from the top 3 wide outs with injury impacts in Mike williams, corey davis and zay jones..however later round picks like trent taylor for the 9ers and Taiwan taylor of the titans look great in the role they play.

Jamal Adams is better performed than Hooker by plenty. Adams is everything the Jets wanted and more. Already organises the defence and flies around the field making plays with monotonous regularity. Slightly unfair on him but he is drawing comparisons to Troy Polamalu.

I probably should recant and say hooker is on par with adams as the two best in the draft. Can't say hooker is clearly better than adams ir vice versa. But I think has performance has at least been on par and you can debate both ways for one or the other. Hooker has been stellar

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Adams comfortably DROY for mine, Jets D performing fantastic despite pawning in Richardson and Harris before week 1, their secondary is the best i can remember it since the early Rex Ryan Revis Island days, Adams is going to be a very special player.

I must be watching a different player because I haven't been impressed by Trubisky except for the odd play here and there

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Fournette looking all that and then some, imagine how much more effective he would be with mediocre QB play. OROY for mine right now, slightly ahead of Watson. Could go either way before the year is out though.

edit: how do i forget Kareem Hunt?

Ill stick with Fournette regardless, but Hunt, yes, clearly, CLEARLY, OROY right now

Agree, probably looks better than he really is to some because of Glennon's hideous play.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Shout out to Tre'Davious White on the defensive side also, despite getting lit up by Green last week he's had a fantastic start to the season, i like his style, backs himself and goes all out for turnovers, will get burnt from time to time because of it but he's a difference maker. Reminds me a bit of Marcus Peters in his DROY year.

 

[exe ex machina]

Trubisky easily rookie of the year....in terms of hottest young poster boy.

He's been good because he looks like he belongs, so early in his rookie season. Like Wentz did in his first few games. Got the size, arm, poise, you just KNOW he's going to develop along nicely to go along with his smashing good looks.

 

[quotemokc]

Watson the clear RoY candidate so far?

 

[MotleyLemon]

Hooker was smoked on the Taywan Taylor TD in the Monday night game this week. Totally lost. I like him, but still has a ways to go. Adams far more impressive at this point.

 

[Blacky]

Shoutout to Solomon Thomas who is also looking really legit

I also think this TE class will deliver but maybe not OJ. Njoku and Engram both look the good with Jonnu Smith and Everett also flashing

 

[exe ex machina]

Special Teams rookie of the year.....shout-out to Eagles PK Jake Elliot.
