my first one of the season. It is unreasonably good


EDGE MYLES GARRETT TEXAS A&M
QB MITCH (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky NORTH CAROLINA
S OBI MELIFONWU CONNECTICUT
WR ZAY JONES EAST CAROLINA
EDGE JORDAN WILLIS KANSAS STATE
CB MARQUEZ WHITE FLORIDA STATE
TE COLE HIKUTINI LOUISVILLE

That is two players I think will be big time pass rushers, a franchise level QB, the best player at the East West game and a hulking safety

I think somebody should be fired at Fanspeak that the default number of rounds you choose to draft is 1.

Nobody there....doing a mock draft in February...is just going to mock draft 1 round. READ A MARKET REPORT!!

The best player at the East-West Shrine Bowl was Wes Lunt - QB out of Illinois.

That's actually true, not just me being me.

_________________

The name I heard most often coming out of that week was Zay Jones.

One of the Sun Times writers made a prediction before the season started that Wes Lunt would be drafted and have an NFL career

The Pitt QB coming out would be a decent lower round gamble. It is possible he grows into a Flacco type.

People are talking about him like he is a second rounder, which I think is crazy

_________________

I watched all his games and I do not think he is.

I'm a fan of drafting a QB in the 1st or 2nd and than drafting a guy like Peterman if he's there in the 3rd or 4th. Or take Peterman this year and then if you are positioned to take a good QB high next year do that as well.

What I'm saying is position two young QB's with really decent ceilings on this roster. Not bullshit like David Fales either. Promise them nothing either. Just that the best QB will start. Throw bodies at this thing.

I'm tired of the linear plan of Draft QB A, build around him, hope he's good, and then find out he's not and start over.

Strong Genes.

We can thank DNA for our various proclivities.

Hunt. Gather. Procreate.

Somewhere in the chain is an enzyme or a telomere length that draws us to Peterman.

Example A: The bartender in Red Hook with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows and the skinniest black tie I’ve ever seen.

Example B: The professor of horticulture at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Even those with no interest in dirt-digging sign up.

Example C: The businessman from Edinburgh in the tweed jacket and wool tie. Always meticulous. Never a wrinkle or a fleck of lint in sight.

Diverse backgrounds. Varied levels of attention to detail.

The code is strong. Thank the maker.

Nathan Peterman (No. 4). 100% drop back passer in a pro-style check-down offense. Flat felled pass finishes. Button-down playbook learner. Mitered strong arm with single-speed scrambling. Team leader with corner locker and extra Bengay. Made in Portugal.

Affirmed on Zay Jones there & at the Senior Bowl.

I really didn't see a QB worth pinning any hopes on at either game

Obi and Willis probably won't be there as well.

Obi is 6'4", 219 as a safety and he played some corner at the Senior Bowl. He's expected to run a sub 4.5

Not a bad way to kill time. Did a packers one. I'd love to see them get Williams in the first but I'm iffy on the rest.

I am a fan of grabbing Kelly with a late-round pick, though. Even if you get a QB early or trade for Marco Polo.

Would obviously be a helluva draft with those 1st few picks, so I agree its not a very realistic sim. But what it does do is get you reading/watching video and looking at players to do some research (I did anyway) -so it gets you familiar with a lot of the players out there coming in. Pretty cool tool in that way.


My 1st one of these, thanks for posting the link Dr. Ken

Here we go - no chance at this -

These 3rd and 4th rounders won't be there. Jerome in the 5th could be something and pretty good value. He was impressive at the Senior Bowl.

I think there's zero chance (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky is there in the 2nd. I don't think he makes it past the top 12-14. Someone will reach.
