Total cap hit still matters. Campbell would be five years of a guy on a rookie contract. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I think the Josh Allen effect is valid this year. Bryce Young is the safest bet at QB, but due to his physical size, has limitations. AR and Levis are guys who could absolutely bust.. but if they hit… And if I’m drafting a guy in the Top 5 and/or giving up massive draft capital to move up.. I’m taking a swing. Especially as an AFC Team. Safe isn’t contending in a conference with Allen, Mahomes, Burrow, Herbert and Lawrence over the next decade. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimer1960 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Rashee Rice quietly had a nice day 41” vertical, really good broad jump and 4.51 40. I’m still not fully sold on him getting open in the NFL because I didn’t see him get a lot of separation in college (but great production). All that said, I’m a draft fan, not a scout.

I really like Rice. Early on there was varying size and speed thoughts. Anywhere from 6' to 6'3" and 4.42 -4.55 40's. Had he come in at 6'2"+ and a 4.45, I thought he would be a great pick at 27. Now with true measurements, I would love to get him at 59.😁 Edited March 5, 2023 by LyndonvilleBill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think this is bad wait till Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Bo Nix, Michael Pennix, and Deion’s kid come out next year. People will be jumping over chairs claiming these guys are the second coming when in reality like every other QB class you’ll have 1 or 2 hits and the rest will be busts 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Playing speed looks to be much higher, never would've guessed 4.5 for him This is actually good for us. Addison would be a perfect compliment to Diggs and he might fall a little now. Don’t let the combine eliminate the fact that addisons game tape is elite and he’s one of the best receivers in the draft. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind if every pick was offensive. I'm going into rhis year with the mindset of giving Allen protection and weapons. Let him cook. The defense falls where it falls. McD can try to get the best out of what he has. The organization has to change its mentality and focus. For too long it has concentrated on upgrading the defense. It hasn't worked come playoff time. Unless it’s a plug and play-n-starter I wouldn't draft offense at 27 for the sake of drafting offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 1 hour ago, MrEpsYtown said: If I needed a QB, I would take Richardson. I like the raw athlete every time. I loved Justin Herbert coming out, guys like Trey Lance…it’s 50/50 but if you are taking a shot on a guy, this guy is the kind of guy I would shoot my shot on. I hate small qbs and game manager guys. I would make the argument that his presence at times raised the play of others. Like Torrence the guard, the big thing is that he doesn’t give up sacks. When you watch him play, Richardson bails out Torrence a lot. JMO, but I get why the scouts are drooling. I understand that rationale, but it's a VERY risky proposition taking a guy in the top 10 like that. Especially if you are a new GM, with a new HC, and trying to establish yourself along with building a winning roster. If you already have a bridge QB and can bring him along slowly? Great. Otherwise, it may cost them their job. Honestly, he reminds me of Terrelle Pryor with a better vertical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are technicians in route running, gaining separation and securing passes. Hyatt looks like a track star with a limited route tree and questionable hands. Hyatt seemed to be running wide open on 90% of his targets. Flowers looks to be a comparable talent to addison and JSN- maybe not as refined but a better athlete. johnston, addison, JSN and Flowers look to be the WRs worth a look in rd 1 of this draft. Hyatt might be drafted rd 1 but he doesn’t have the WR skills (other than speed) to warrant the selection imo. I see a lot of comparisons to a healthy Will Fuller…..but I don’t see that. I thought Fuller had much better ball skills and was a better route runner. it looks like there will be a few decent WR options in rd 2-4. I love Jayden Reed and he’d be an absolute steal in rd 3 (but likely won’t be there for us there). Boutte, Tillman, Washington, Tyler, Rice, Palmer, Mims, Hutchinson, wicks, Wilson, Jarrett, nacua, Mingo, Perry, Jones, Green. If the top 4 WRs are gone, I hope we can trade down. If Hyatt is the pick, so be it, I just don’t know if he’s ever going to be more than an MVS type (minus the height and wingspan). Don’t reach on WR. There’s some decent mid rd value value imo. I’d rather draft Wright/Mauch or another OL rather than reach on WR Edited March 5, 2023 by NewEra 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
