I'm curious about Daniels. Throwing to 2 1st round picks at LSU in an aggressive offense. Got a high ceiling but Commanders are going to have to protect him and give a chance to ease his way in.

Just watching the end of the draft programme. 49ers go for a WR, might mean Aiyuk is available for a trade and they mentioned both Patriots and Washington as they might have a need and would also give 49ers a high 2nd round pick
Simms took a dive for me when he had Zac Wilson ahead of Trevor Lawrence. Doesn't he also have Nix & Pennix ahead of Maye & JJ this year?I’ve mentioned before I listen to Chris Simms a fair bit. He’s an ex QB and studies them all before the draft. Last year he picked Stroud as being in a league of his own ahead of Young before the draft, which went against the grain but proved right
He reckoned Caleb was stand out first pick but Daniels not far behind and in a league of his own ahead of the others. We’ll see I guess.
Is there a tackle that is worth taking this high? The experts have them taking a WR.Have they added pieces to O line in the offseason? Last year it wasn't good. Rookie QB you need a good left Tackle at least.
It's also unfair to say Stroud is better than Young yet, Young had less than nothing to work with.Simms took a dive for me when he had Zac Wilson ahead of Trevor Lawrence. Doesn't he also have Nix & Pennix ahead of Maye & JJ this year?

I hated Wilson coming in.
Only 30 games at college. BYU a bit of a bubble then going to New York would test anybody. Big 12 not the most competitive conference. His stats prior to that final year were not great either, 9 games 11 TD 9 INT.
I think they saw how Burrow had come from (almost) nowhere to be the obvious pick the year before and tried to be too clever. Burrow clearly a fair superior player even then.
Yep I preferred Stroud. More rounded. For me Young was a case of he's a "winning QB in the SEC" so he must be good. Also fell away from 2022 when he had Williams & Metchie as his WRs to not having much WR help in 2023. I'm still not a huge fan of smaller QBs as a rule.I always preferred Stroud.
I think he just suffered from being an OSU QB so too many drafted the helmet.
TBF Bama did have a great run of starting calibre NFL QBs and it's too early to tell on Young. Carolina is such a poor landing spot and Tepper a terrible owner so I don't see things getting better quickly there.
Think we both banged this gong on here at the time. BYU had a rubbish schedule (due to COVID) & a strong O line. Played one decent defense and they mullered him (coastal carolina)I hated Wilson coming in.

Makes less sense now if you look at their cap situation for next year. Going to be losing key players as can't afford them. Edge or Bowers would have made way more sense. Then their GM comes out today they intend to sit him behind Kirk for up to 4 years - basically negates massive value of QB rookie contractSurprised by the lack of major trade activity. Sounds like there were attempts but ignored
Vikings getting McCarthy at 10 might end up being a great pick/fit. Falcons picking Penix after signing cousins is v strange. He’s apparently very good but picking him so high after big deal with Cousins. Made it squitty for Vikings
Edit - could’ve understood Maye sitting behind cousins more, two years younger than penix and apparently a bit more raw. Just catching up. Turner for Vikings also looks a very good pick at where they got him
There are some decent ones but the elite/good ones have gone - big drop off from the top 3/4.Is there a tackle that is worth taking this high? The experts have them taking a WR.
They will have to look at bringing another tackle in and there are a few ijury returns on the o-line
You got a player I was hoping we might have taken at 23 if we'd stayed there. Newton could be an elite 3 Tec but with Allen & Payne already there it's a slight strange one.So the wildcard was the run on QBs and office players overall.
A bit disappointed Washington couldn't nip back in to draft one of the starting caliber tackles (or a couple didn't fall out of the first)
It is strange but Allen and Payne are on big money so it it gives you the opportunity to reset your cap after this year.You got a player I was hoping we might have taken at 23 if we'd stayed there. Newton could be an elite 3 Tec but with Allen & Payne already there it's a slight strange one.
Suppose that's what they did with Sweat & Young.It is strange but Allen and Payne are on big money so it it gives you the opportunity to reset your cap after this year.
Also I like taking a player with a first round grade in the second. The best teams draft with the next 4 years in mind.
Overall very please with Washington’s draft.
Love looking at draft grades and the variance of opinions. I'm okay with our draft. Vikings actually managed to draft a player from a college I've never heard of .
It's one of the things that pundits don't focus enough with draft QBs - leadership, dressing room & attitude others. I have strong feeling that going forward the Bears will have issues with Williams particularly if they hit a rocky patch on the field.
Can't ever accuse Kirk of that. Turned down several restructures to create cap space and that led to some big players having to be let go / traded.The best quarterbacks are the ones that want to win and leave money in the pot for other good players
OBJ to Miami!!
Not the player he was since that first ACL. But does offer something as a WR3 but the WR3 is why it's not a big contract.A lot cheaper than ravens contract as well. Think it’s only 3m guaranteed. Good option but guessing Hill and Waddle will still be top 2 there barring injuries
That's a strong ravens team plus Chiefs seem to improve towards the end of the season.They'll probably get better but I didn't think the chiefs looked as good as last year.
Early days though
yeah as I said they may get better but they aren't there yetThat's a strong ravens team plus Chiefs seem to improve towards the end of the season.
Yeah, but what does Taylor Swift think??Bored of the Chiefs now
