    I would fully be on board taking a Hurts, Fromm, Eason etc if they are there in the 4th, develop them, showcase them in Preseason going into the next seasons and flip them in a heart beat.  Take a QB in the 4th, flip him in a couple years for a 1st and more

    I’m very hopeful Fromm falls amid the bad year and athletic concerns.  Somebody is going to get a good QB in him.

     

     

    of course...  I’ve liked some truly awful prospects in my time as well.

    Hea not as heavy as his listed combine weight.

     

    Cole Kmet apparently said that Claypool was drinking gallon after gallon of water before his way in. 

     

    I've studied him enough that hes better suited as a WR. 

     

    If a team tries to make him a TE he has a very long way to go in many ways. 

    Agree with this.  TE is on its own, one of the toughest positions to transition from college to the pros.  The other...  WR.  I think a “move” role is the right way to go out of the gate, but a straight transition to TE  has a better chance of ruining him as a prospect in either, in my opinion.

    bucs looking to trade oj howard.  this has been a rumor since sometime last year. man that would be a fun for this offense.  but would obviously be at least a second to start

    I would wager a 3rd is what they’ll receive during the draft.  Watch the Pats.  They’ll most likely offer some of Brady’s old friends (James White or even Edelman) for him.  

  4. Gonna respectfully disagree with a good portion of the OP.  Breakout age is a really great tool for WRs as it demonstrates a pattern of performance beyond simply measurables.  But QBs defy it constantly.  Achieving the requisite QBR on the requisite action plays (don’t remember the number off hand) is important, sure.  But respectfully, not as critical as it’s made in the OP.  QBs have a chance to develop incredibly at the next level, arguably more than any other position.  The drop off in significant coaching talent at the collegiate level is immense compared to the consistency players find in the pros.  If you poll scouts you’ll find that many are looking for the “holy grail” of intangibles (Leadership, work ethic and accuracy being almost unanimously the top 3) before ever looking into something like peak collegiate achievement defined by breakout age (if they look at it at all).  The biggest flaw in the analytics behind breakout age...  The young players ceiling isn’t measured and doesn’t reveal anything that attributes to the big 3, aside from accuracy.  Again...  my opinion.
