Beyond the forum, I'm kind of done with draft coverage in general. 10 years ago it used to be cool because there were a couple of guys on the net that put out good work and on JI we would have good draft discussions (a bunch of those guys are here now).
Now, we have a hundred new mock drafts every day, with the proliferation of video on youtube everyone thinks they are Ozzie Newsome breaking down film and 99% of the "draft coverage" we see is gossip and speculation. It's completely oversaturated.

100%. The draft has jumped the shark. It stupid nonsense at this point. I used to love it, could give a **** now. Probably the last time I actually give it any thought and research outside of just watching college ball.

but on a more serious note. Tell me that you dont have confidence running through your veins like a a junkie who just hit some angel dust when you see this picture of the Jets savior at QB
Can you imagine what would happen to you if you ridiculed Justin fields for the way he looks?
Heres the thing about Wilson though, and part of the reason I think hes going to be successful- he doesn’t give a SH!T what you or I think. You see, Wilson doesn’t look like a kid in every photo (see below) but he isn’t insecure enough to curate his Instagram to make him look tough. He could give two sh!ts about looking like a kid. He has confidence in who he is, like Steve young said, doubt this kids grit and toughness and you will look like a fool.

LOL I remember a narrative being pushed that Bill was in love with Gholston and would’ve taken him. I think they picked like 2 picks after us
That was 100% the story at the time

288 career college pass attempts
For context, Patrick Mahomes had almost 1,400 college passing attempts.

I think the Jets really like Jenkins because he has the qualities they look for in offensive lineman and has the kind of talent to warrant a top 25 pick. The complaint with Becton was also that he needed some work technically, but look at why they valued him...
Jenkins has experience playing LT, LG, RG, and RT. Joe Douglas loves that versatility. I think they'd play him at RG short-term, potentially move him to RT long-term.
Chances Jets go OLINE at 23 + 34?

Right, but there are posters that argue pro Wilson now that wanted nothing to do with him when he first appeared on the scene.
Because they removed their biases and took time to learn about the player... I know I did..
Lot's of people here doubted this guy too...

Whenever a Wilson supporter gives me a stat I have to ask if it’s just for the 2020 season or his career. Many of you act like he went to college for one year only. So is that stat you are citing for 2020 or his entire college career. I put more value on the latter than former.
It’s for the same exact time frame as the stats you posted, sorry that it doesn’t fit your narrative. Fields stats are undeniably great, though so we’re Dwayne Haskins (** relax I am not saying Fields is Dwayne Haskins, but OU makes QBs look good).

You're welcome but it's probably the last and fwiw, I have given many well articulated thoughts on all the QB's in this draft worthy of draft selection. I was one of the first posters on this board to bring up Zach Wilson as a prospect and to hit the pause button on TL as "generational". The stamps are out there along with the years high value accurate content as proof. I dont find the need to endlessly repeat myself over and over again about the same things (like his overrated arm) because it's needless, I've said what I had to say. When you consider the nonsense that I'm having to deal with for simply sharing my incredibly deep well thought-out analysis of each player (ie: guys like you send me PM's telling me that I suck), what's the point of repeating myself? It's out there for all to see, all I can do is hope I'm wrong.
The only reason I even gave another take is because I appreciated the question.
Let’s be clear, I PMed you because you were flooding my notifications on purpose. Back to the gifs

IMHO when picking a QB that high in the draft, it’s less about what they are bad at but more about what are their elite traits and/or skills. I would say his release speed is probably the closest thing that’s elite about him. Despite what the talking heads are propagating, I do not see elite arm talent, elite arm strength, elite size, elite athleticism, elite processing..etc...etc.
When you combine the release, his off platform throwing, his ability to change trajectories, his anticipation, and his arm strength the total "arm talent package" is elite.... In terms of "QB traits" Fields has elite downfield accuracy, in every other category I would describe him as average to below average. Obviously he is an elite runner at the position, which can mask other deficiencies.

Numbers say one thing but I saw a lot of jump balls on tape where his WRs made spectacular grabs. Also I don’t believe his deep accuracy numbers were as “elite” prior to the cup cake schedule. Fields down field accuracy has been terrific for his entire career. If avoiding turnover worthy plays are your thing Fields has the advantage there too.
Fields is one of the best downfield throwers I've ever seen... Though the turnover worthy play thing lacks context, Wilson had a 1% turnover worthy rate vs. 3% for fields (fewer attempts).

This is the kind of stuff that makes people cringe at Wilson supporters. It's not enough to like him. No that won't suffice. You have to tear everyone else down and Wilson has to be the second greatest QB in the world behind only Patrick Mahomes.
I didn't tear anyone down and I never said hes the second greatest QB behind Patrick Mahomes. Show me your Darnold cut ups if anyone has these types of plays, which by the way Wilson did on a weekly basis.

‘Making plays’ is a low bar. Blaine Gabbert made plays. He was a better prospect too.
show me a blaine gabbert highlight on that level

I was gonna say "Now do a compilation of wow throws by Sam Darnold", but then I realized who I was responding to.
Sam Darnold doesn’t have a single wow throw comparable to these

Do you have the stats on that right? Like did you check it?
Yes, confirmed thanks for asking.

Yea this guy won't be able to make plays at the next level ...

That’s really good but I’ve seen special (Mahomes Texas Tech); that ain’t it. Also it’s balls that die on him and don’t make the highlight reel that makes say folks overrate his arm talent.
yea things less than 10% of NFL QBs can do aren't special, gotcha.

You might be right, but when I watch them both in college Herbert looks like a much more natural and instinctual player. My concern with fields is that he is very mechanical and a tick slow to move and react in general, even when running. It's like he doesn't have great control of his body... Reminds me of markelle fultz playing basketball. Just what I see when comparing the two. I like Fields, and wouldn't be surprised if he turns out the be the best QB in the class if he goes into the right situation.
