Tony Pauline:Fields falling down draft boards. No NFL team has Wilson higher than Lawrence.

[GreekJet]

Discussed on his Podcast today. 

[GodDamnSnack]

I'm surprised by that. I really think Fields has what it takes. Wilson is also a great prospect, but I would take Fields at #2.

[Ben Had]

No surprise...after TL there is no QB worth a top 10 pick.  

[JoJoTownsell1]

Pretty sure no one knows the exact draft board of every NFL team. 

[CanadienJetsFan]

Trade down.

[PS17]

These guys don’t know sh*t.

Exactly, pretty sure even the NFL teams don’t know their exact draft board yet....they are definitely not telling Tony Pauline anything when they eventually do, or at least, they are not telling a gobshyte wannabe GM with a social media presence anything they don’t want tweeted or podcasted immediately. 

[BroadwayRay]

Tony didn't definitively say that no team has Wilson ranked higher than Lawrence. He just said he doesn't believe the reports of a team(s) ranking Wilson higher. Headline of this post needs fixing.

Especially not in February.  

[SomebodytoAnybody47]

So confirming that one report is a lie, with nobody having Wilson higher then Lawrence. But I'm supposed to fully believe Fields is falling down draft boards?

In a year with no combine and most pro days haven't happened yet.

Last year, Herbert's stock fell as the draft got closer. Meanwhile. Trubisky shot up the boards in 2017.

The one year wonder types always receive the most pre-draft hype, meanwhile the guys who have been on the radar for years get nitpicked ad nauseum. It happens every year.

[HawkeyeJet]

Is Fields falling down draft boards or are teams finally sharing information that conflicts with what draft prognosticators initially thought based on their own merits, so now they say he's "falling"?

I still think Fields is the 2nd best QB in this draft but I don't know s*** really.

The bigger the body of work, the more negative plays you can dig up on a prospect.

Agreed.   Fields may be the second best QB prospect but might be ranked as the 15th best player on a particular teams board.  

[BroadwayRay]

This obsession with Fields and his ability to get past his first read is getting ridiculous. Even Pauline said in his podcast he doesn't fully believe it's a significant problem. It seems to be a narrative that's taken on a life of its own.

[T0mShane]

Figures. Fields is the one non-Watson option I would have been interested in 

[nycdan]

Let's approach this from another angle.

Which draft analysts, if any, do you respect as having solid intel / opinions?  Because there are a lot of people spewing a lot of stuff right now.

1) Kiper

2)McShay

3)Pauline

[QB1]

So fields is dropping like Watson, mahomes, etc. makes sense

Aren't you the same guy who was pumping up Tua not too long ago?

The more there's a mishmash after Lawrence, the less the pick is worth. If Lawrence is clear #1, Wilson is clear #2, and Fields drops to like #10-12 (and Lance lower still), then that's great news if Douglas is (allegedly still) looking to trade down.

Everybody knows Wilson is ranked above Trevor

Came to this conclusion recently and posted it and continue to feel this way. Fields is going to fall and be the best guy in the class. He’s got some stuff to work on but I think it’s straightforward for him to work it out, if he falls he’s going to end up in a better situation than with a team drafting crazy high, and NFL teams repeatedly have passed on the best quarterback in the draft class.

Really hope Douglas pulls some shenanigans and manages to grab one of the blue chip offensive non-QB’s AND grab Fields.

[HighPitch]

Yea fields is really getting shafted. Maybe because of his last game? I dunno but the game before last he played LIGHTS OUT

[Warfish]

Tony Pauline is a real football guy.

 

[Irish Jet]

Fields will be out of the league in 5-6 years.

He’s a catastrophe.

[RedBeardedSavage]

I mean, you can't believe a goddam rumor for the next two months... but I'm willing to indulge in the hottest of takes:

Fields = Mitch Trubisky

Joe Douglas: "Magic 8-Ball, is picking this QB #2 in the draft going to blow up in my face?"
