Mendoza is good. But not #1 overall good. Just a bad QB class.

Wasn't a fan of last draft class either but this one is weaker at QB.

Im not sure there is any superstar prospect in next year's class either. Just a run of poor QB drafts right now

Agree though next year seems more at worst calibre quarterbacks. This year it’s a maybe on Mendoza then what? I’d honestly sell the pick to a team silly enough to pay random for this year

[kaiserchief13]

Will be awkward viewing if Bucs beat Panthers. Neither team can celebrate

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

I think Gabriel ran the ducks O better. I wonder which transfer Oregon will get in next.

Oregon QBs are like Tennessee WRs put up numbers but not NFL standard because of the system

Moore is only 20 years old. I think he's looked pretty good for someone that young. Sit him for a year or two in the NFL.

A bad NFL team isnt spending a early 1 on that. But the league needs to normalise sitting QBs.

I just dont see anything special with him. Looks like everyone else Dan Lanning has had

For those that watch college football, if a qb is not the consensus best talent, who is?

Arvell Reese id say. Another Parson's (when he was at Penn State) prototype. Can play offball linebacker and edge.

Bailey is a good edge that has top 10 talent. He was single handed our defense last year. Was sad to see him transfer but he needed to go elsewhere to improve his draft stock.

Im not super high on the top end of the draft right now. Its solid but not as strong as other years. But feel there will be some gems on day 2/mid rounds.

QB class is a bad one. Mendoza is good. Was expecting Klubnick to be at the top but he had a bad year and now day 2.
Moore, Nussmier, Aller, Simpson and Mateer I wouldn't touch. But know some GM will fall in love with highlights and take at least 2 of them day 1.
RB class is like but no super talent other then Love and thats a pick i would have in the teens.

WR and TE doesn't feel like it as good at the top as the last few.

It's a decent defense draft but yeah, offense skill positions really lacking.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Caleb Downs is a beast but not sure a safety will be a top 10 pick.

 

[aussiedude]

I think there will be super bargains on day 2. Mid/late first round will have some that feel like a reach in a year or so and day 2 have some gems. Scouts and line coaches will make their money.

But feel like OL will have a bunch of 1st round picks because of how poor OL play has been league wide. But even there i dont see the top end as good as past drafts. It does feel heavy towards the defense this year.

 

[aussiedude]

Caleb Downs is a beast but not sure a safety will be a top 10 pick.

If he was a corner he would be top 3. Im not sure about top 5 picks or even 8 at safety. But he is a playmaker. Hope he doesn't end up in the North

So should the Raiders take Mendoza at 1 if they dont **** it up this week?

 

[aussiedude]

Yeah. But he won't fix the offence alone. Needs a new OL and WR. Jeanty and Bowers are there so its a start. I would look at Myers trade value

Myers got traded and is playing for the Jags mate

The trend of 'early pick bust' QB reclamation projects succeeding in recent years (Geno Smith, Mayfield, Darnold, even Willis and Jones looking good in relief spots this year) hasn't changed the thinking around this yet, but it will be interesting to see where it goes long term.

 

[Southerntakeover]

If San Fran get no. 1 seed cmc must be in MVP conservation

Give the MVP to a guy with a yards per carry beginning with a 3

Sorry Michael Mayer was who I was talking about

It wont ever change. It will keep being the same few teams drafting new QBs top 5 every 3-5 years.

Will take another few years but I wonder if college having coach to player headset communication will help QBs calling plays and make the jump to the NFL a bit easier even if most can't read a defence or just relying on their dude out athleting the other team which isnt something most NFL teams can do with WRs being that much better then the CBs

Leads team in rushing and receiving by some distance. If team gains number 1 seed no player is more responsible for that result.

 

[Constantgin]

There is some talent on offense thou in this draft. It just falls away quickly.

Jemeriyah Love is a top tier prospect in jeanty bijan tier.

Tyson, lemon, Tate are all top tier wr prospect should all go in top 20 of the draft. About as good as last year at WR maybe a little better top 3.

Sadiq is first round talent at TE

Mauigoa and Fano are really good OT Prospect should go top 10 and another 2 OT that could go first round in proctor and Dunker.

I think first round has atleast 3 qbs, 1 rb, 3 wr, 1 te and 4 OLs draft in first round with maybe a chance for couple more wrs like brazzell , bell or boston with chance to sneak into back of first round. So atleast 12 offensive players in first round not as bad as people are saying but this is a much better draft depth wise for defense thou.

 

[Southerntakeover]

Leads team in rushing and receiving by some distance. If team gains number 1 seed no player is more responsible for that result.

Whoopdedoo. He gets spammed touches, and accumulates yards.

The Niners riding a cupcake schedule to top seed really got their fans gassed up right now.l

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Jemeriyah Love is a top tier prospect in jeanty bijan tier.

No hes not. Just because he might go top 10 doesnt mean hes as good. I would have him in between Hampton and Judkins last year.

 

[aussiedude]

No hes not. Just because he might go top 10 doesnt mean hes as good. I would have him in between Hampton and Henderson last year.

He is a 1st round pick. Not a top 10 pick but more mid teens/20s. However the weak class might push him higher

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

I think he probably does go top 10 in this draft but last year he would have been late first
