Popular Post T0mShane Posted April 19 Popular Post Share Posted April 19 1 hour ago, section314 said: I watched an ESPN show the other night and one of the guys said that from a bunch of his NFL sources that JJ was by far the most impressive of all the QB’s as far as the official visits and interviews went. By a lot. He is the anti Willams… leader, winner and not a turnover machine. I was gonna start a thread and ask the boys if there is a chance in hell that McCarthy could go one. Thanks for posting this.😎 Dane Brugler actually talked about McCarthy’s eventual rise (iirc) back in January. He said that he was going to interview amazingly well and coaches were going to love him. Sort of how we ended up with Zach—the scouts are meh on a prospect all the way through the process, but the coaches talk to him, determine he’s a gritty gamer whom they’d want their daughters to date, then the QB coach watches the film and says he can fix any prospect, and—boom—player rockets up the charts. Heard an interesting theory about McCarthy—that because he had so few pass attempts, coaches have more leash to project what he could be, so he becomes a product of their imagination. Contrast that with Maye, who hung with a depleted UNC offense, struggled a bit, and is now getting killed as the process goes on. The COVID year QBs benefitted from this too, especially Zach, their seasons got disrupted, tons of players sat out, so QBs were all drafted based on smaller samples playing against compromised programs. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hood points. I remember Zach’s last year, played on the road vs a very good Coastal Carolina D and looked terrible. Last year Williams, on the road vs a good ND defense, look worse. Honestly think if the Bears take this guy they will regret it for 4 years when they are picking #1 again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it would be advantagous to take the WR first ( Thomas, Mitchell, Worthy) and the OT round 2 (Paul, Suamatala, Beebe) . The talent in WR in rd 2 is not significantly better than rd 3. While the talent in OT is fairly similar in mid to later round 1 to round 2. But lets say Odunze is there at 10 which is possible. You then would have to take Rosengarten or Armedgie at 72 and maybe a guard like Coleman at 111 to solidify the OL. In round 4 pick 134 WR Cowing.

I think the analyst guys who love Caleb are a little too quick to handwave a bunch of stuff Caleb does poorly and are likewise too quick to say that he’ll just change his stripes once he’s a pro. He holds the ball way too long, takes way too many sacks, and runs way too much stuff out of structure. I don’t get the dudes who are pretending that he’s just going to walk into the Bears situation and become more of a traditional, NFL-type passer on Day One. Why? Because of Matt Eberflus and Shane Waldron? Are we pretending that Lincoln Riley is a bad coach all of a sudden? I do like watching Caleb, but if I’m a Bears fan, I’m a little scared about throwing him out there day one and expecting him to manage that rapid growth curb while keeping his sh*t together playing for an iffy coach who has one foot already in the grave. That said, if things go bad in Chicago this year, they can probably get themselves Ben Johnson or Mike McDaniel (once Stephen Ross fires him for Belichick) next offseason. Top dudes will want that job. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby816 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 My thoughts at this stage are this. Assuming MHJ, Nabers and Alt are gone. Guys I”d love for us to draft Rome Odunze Brock Bowers I go back and forth on who I want more Guys I’d still be happy if we drafted Troy Fataunu Talise Fuaga Guys I’d be ok with drafting but likely wouldn’t love the pick. But wouldn’t hate it either Olu Fashanu JC Latham Surprising later guys I’d be happy with drafting even at 10 Brian Thomas Jr. Guys I’d hate if we drafted Any defensive player. I don’t care how good they are. We don’t need them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claymation Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 5 biggest X-factors in the 2024 NFL Draft: Brock Bowers, Chop Robinson and more TE BROCK BOWERS, GEORGIA Bowers was incredibly productive in college, averaging 2.65 yards per route run in 2023 to lead all college tight ends who saw at least 35 targets. Any draft concerns stem from looking at the historical production teams get out of tight ends early in their NFL careers and the fact that Bowers didn't test at the NFL scouting combine. He reportedly ran a 4.53-second 40-yard dash time at a private pro day and generated a 99th-percentile PFF Game Athleticism Score among college tight ends in each of the past three seasons.

T0mShane Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Awesome question and follow up from this dude to Kevin O’Connell about McCarthy vs Maye. O’Connell’s answer is awesome too. FWIW the QBs Minnesota has passed on the last two drafts: Malik Willis and Desmond Ridder in 22 and Will Levis last year. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
