Kolek planning to go pro
Yeah, it's hard to get a read on Jones. He said his strength was executing whatever the coach's game plan was -- he would always listen to the coach. That's a good thing, mostly, but again it suggest a bit of a robotic playing style. Mel Kiper has him going 3rd overall to SF. Others have him going late first round or early second. The Panthers, who desperately want a QB, don't appear to be high on him, though Rhule has said nice things about him after working with him at the Senior Bowl.I'm not excited about him ... which means he'll probably be a superstar - ha!
What do folks think of Mac Jones' potential as an NFL QB?He seems mechanical to me, and judging from photos I've seen of his workouts, he looks like he enjoys 6-packs rather than having 6-pack abs. But he actually moves quite well - 4.7 time in the 40 - and it's impossible to argue with his production at Bama.Aside from Lawrence, he's arguably the most known quantity among all the QBs available. That can be a good thing or a bad thing.
That 3rd pick is solely based on the Niners trading up and Shanahan going to his pro day/supposedly liking him. I think it’s all a bit crazy. But hey, if it means the Bears don’t try to trade up into the teens to take him, I’m good.
The more quarterbacks going early, the better the defender who never produces for the Lions.
Even though the Panthers need a QB, and there are some decent prospects, I'm not really digging any of them other than Lawrence. And there are so many incredible receivers, as well as offensive tackles, the latter of which is an area of huge need. So part of me is hoping all the QBs go before the Panthers draft so my team can get one of the much higher-ranked players.
The Florida Tight End looks very good to me.
However, would it be worth the Vikings ( or any other team) using their 7th round pick to select Jalen Suggs?
Charlie Wood was a better football player and played pro basketball.
No team is wasting a draft pick on Suggs.
Also, he’s not draft eligible until the 2023 draft, so there’s that.
Looks like MU82 has got his new QB ... Sam Darnold to the Panthers for 2nd and 4th round picks in 2022 and a 6th round pick in 2021.
