I would love to just invest it in stocks, but I'm guessing it'll ultimately be invested into our house instead: we have a lot of stuff to purchase for it already, including some eventual repairs.

My comps for each guy's most likely outcome (listed in order of my grades): Burrow: Carson Palmer Tua: Poor Man's Russell Wilson Love: Colin Kaepernick (but a better passing, worse running version) Eason: Stationary Josh Allen Herbert: Poor Man's Jay Cutler Fromm: Matt Barkley Hurts: Poor Man's Mitch Trubisky

That wouldn't surprise me but it's a bummer nonetheless

To be fair, it's probably the worst division in the league in terms of QB play right now. The fact that it's a debate between Darnold and Allen is pretty sad.

Tbf, we don't actually know what he got. There's been three different reported numbers for him. 13, 19, and 24. All are less than ideal but 24 is basically an average score.

If you read the whole thing, it sounds like Brandt is saying his pro comp is a rich man's Dalton and that he thinks Dalton is a good starter and Burrow has the potential to be a special QB.

Big difference between Burrow and Dalton is that Burrow is excellent going through progressions. Dalton is a talented passer but if you take away his first or second read, he's lost. Also, Brandt isn't low on Burrow; he still has him as his #1 QB in the class.

He makes sense if we bring in a veteran RB to be Singletary's backup as well. Don't really want to go into next season with Gibson as the backup though.

Here's last years: This years can be seen on the RB tab here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EGcKt-3OhHND7shQmY9LREGwBxtnUcFwQtQDz2U-3tk/edit#gid=123843325 Dillon is 10th out of 25.

I haven't been doing this a super long time, but a couple recent ones that aren't off to good starts are Quinnen Williams (who I thought was pretty much a lock to be a beast, though I'm definitely not out on him yet) and Stanley Morgan (who I think was like my #5 WR in the class last year and I believe was a practice squad guy all year. The latter seems pretty likely to be a mistake. We'll see with Quinnen. In terms of being too low on guys, Calvin Ridley comes to mind.

Nope, I'm pretty sure I've never been wrong about a prospect before.

Why do you do this to me? I've been nothing but nice to you!

I think there's probably 5-10 players on our team that I would pay $16 million a year before I'd pay McCaffrey and Tre is obviously one of them. Not saying they'd all be good contracts, but I don't think McCaffrey's is a good contract either.

I think it’s extremely likely that we’ve already tried to negotiate with him.

Because he still has 2 years left on his deal anyways, and again, with each major corner that signs a contract, his price goes up. 5/$80 won't get it done anymore because Byron Jones already exceeded that and Tre is better + inflation.

In all likelihood, Tre won't agree to an extension this offseason. He shouldn't be in any rush, and as other corners sign, the price tag will only go up higher. I imagine it'll be in the $90-100 million range when it's all said and done (unless he goes for something shorter like 4 years and $75-80 million).

I'm not sure he's the best, but I would bet that when he gets his new contract, he'll be the highest paid in the league. That's just how NFL contracts work.

Wow, I bet on this happening a few days ago at +950 odds. Also bet that he'd go top 10. This would be a very welcome outcome for me lol

Not sure if it's a hot take or not, but my guess is Edwards-Helaire won't be available at 54.

It's literally like two posts above yours. If you can't tell the difference from that, I don't really know what to say.

Just paste the link into your post and it should pop up with some sort of message at the bottom and if you click that, it'll embed.

That makes him the 7th prospect we've had multiple meetings with along with: Javon Kinlaw Ross Blacklock Shaq Quarterman Akeem Davis-Gaither Chase Claypool Denzel Mims

Yeah, I mean, unless they're just scared shitless of Tua's injuries, I don't see how any team can prefer Herbert over Tua. I don't think Herbert is anywhere near Tua as a prospect (if his medicals are relatively okay).

Definitely better WRs if you directly compare to Wyoming, but relative to the competition they were playing, Allen's WRs his sophomore year > Herbert's WRs. Allen's WRs his last year were an absolute embarrassment though, whereas Herbert's were simply bad. The major difference is that Oregon had one of the best OLines in the country while Allen was running for his life every play.

I have Herbert's likely comp being a poor man's Jay Cutler and is as low a 1st round grade as I give soooo yeah, I'm happy to hear he might be Miami's target. Edit: He's also my #5 QB in the draft, so again, very pleased to see these reports.
