I don’t think that many. Pats don’t seem like tankers. Lots of teams with ancient QB’s who may not get high enough.

You don’t calculate sample size from its own set lol. You’d make a statistician’s head explode right now.

They are going for Lawrence.

Yes, if you believe that 8 plays is indicative of anything. Which I don’t.

Tua was the presumptive #1 pick for about a year and a half. This is wrong.

All of them were projected #1 to be fair.

The pressure will mount when Tyrod plays like trash like he does everywhere.

I mean if they hit on a couple their team will get pretty talented pretty fast. I doubt all of their picks suck.

Well of course, he could bust. But I think he’s a good prospect.

They have 4 firsts left between this year and next. And an extra 2nd next year. They could be very good very fast.

***** this is bad. The Dolphins still have two more firsts and got the QB they were trying to get the #1 pick for at the beginning of the year. *****.

Right. But you’re still trying to draw a conclusion from those 8 plays, just the opposite one. So that’s the same problem. A better way to make any kind of comparison. How many 8 man fronts do RB’s in the NFL face on average? How well do RB’s in the NFL do against 8 man fronts vs not? If all RBs in the NFL, all 10000 carries or whatever, do significantly worse against 8 man boxes and ALSO saw significantly more 8 man boxes than Devin on average, that would support he was likely benefitted from not facing those boxes this year, despite those 8 carries above.

Would he really have to lose a TON of yards? Could we maybe argue D - drawing any kind of conclusion from 8 plays is silly?

It’s actually very interesting and off topic, but the Chief’s GM/FO have one of the most interesting jobs going forward. The goal is no longer SuperBowl or bust but building sustainability. The Chiefs are stacked, you are correct. But if you are wasting first round picks, even late firsts, you won’t be stacked for long. If I’m the Chiefs GM, I start making draft picks for a year or three from now, because if you don’t, you’ll wake up one morning as the Falcons.

I would love it becaus that the kind of draft move that makes you waste a decade of a HoF QB’s career.

No. What QB’s do well against interior pressure? Russell Wilson, maybe?

That Lions team also has a HUGE need at CB after trading away Slay. Would be hard to walk away from Okudah, especially with their HC coaching for his job next year.

Highsmith baby, lets goooo

That would be OUTRAGEOUS. Two top 5 talents in this draft could change their franchise. Draft Tua and Jeudy and let them cook.

I was about to use this quote! *****.

No reporter has credibility this time of year. It’s more of an accepted practice than you think. No one will hold draft misinfo against a reporter with actual info in 6 months. Ian may very well have been told the Dolphins are looking at tackles in that spot. He’s reporting what he was told. Him believing it is really besides the point.

Close. It was more the Bills not wanting to be jumped by a team who loved Ed. It’s what the Dolphins want too. They don’t want competition for the trade up for a QB, so they say they are taking a tackle.

Do we have 1 draft pick this year or am I missing something?

No he’s not. He literally wrote “sources:”

Well you better get used to being sick and tired because that “report” from Rapoport is totally crap and everybody knows it.
