We've got a couple months before the draft, any guesses on who goes number 1?

Maybe it’s me talking myself into the pick I expect them to make, but I am really coming around to him. He certainly is a mature young man with a great head on his shoulders / raised well. 


Deion is outspoken and loud, but it seems he has raised good mannered and very good kids. And (stereotypical, yes), the fact Deion was around and so active in raising him is a major plus.


As for the football, he isn’t as powerful with the arm, but he is extremely accurate and throws a really nice ball. His mechanics are great. He’s a pocket passer who can extend plays and pick up a 1st, but he is not a mobile QB. I dunno, I’m way more all in vs Cam Ward.

Bumping this up after all of the trades and free agent signings.

miami needs to go hard after O-line. but they are awful at player selection, so they'll either go with the OL with the most injury concerns (between eichenberg, borom, daniels, armstead, we have 1 position covered for 17 games, need to draft 14 other players to fill the other 4 starting o-line positions) or something dumb like TE even though they never used any TD until Jonnu showed up, so lets get 2. 


as for the question, i think ward goes #1, but i'm not certian it's the titans making that pick, could be the giants or browns. i also think the browns could sign Russ, and take carter at 2 so that would be fun.

The draft starts tonight. This is the least I've ever cared about who the Jets take in the 1st round. The last two seasons finally broke me.

Bengals at that spot (#17 I think) where they weren’t good enough to be in the playoffs last year but aren’t bad enough to be picking at the top. 

Everyone has them picking whatever defensive lineman lands in their lap.

Shedeur has had an incredible drop in projections. He was once a top ten consideration, and now Pittsburgh maybe takes him at 21. Maybe he doesn’t even get drafted tonight.

Don't these NFL teams know that he's already had his number retired? One of the all-time greats.

I dont see a world he isnt drafted. You win in the NFL with QBs on rookie deals. Someone will grab him in the late picks of Round 1 with a trade up. The value is too great to get him in Round 2 (Browns/Giants) and lose that year of the rookie deal.

The Browns fleeced the Jags in that trade and got a great DT. I don’t mind it at all

Jets pick was alright. I'm a fan of drafting OL in the 1st.

Shocked PIT didn't take a QB.


But smart money is they are trading Pickens to take Dart in R2.

Chiefs and Eagles get steals almost makes you wonder why they were in the Super Bowl.

I have a bad feeling about Shedeur. There’s a lot of diva there. Deion being that way was one thing. A young guy who’s got a ways to go to become an NFL QB? No. They’ve already started in about how he shouldn’t play for a cold weather team. 


I just see a lot of drama tge Browns don’t need.

I was reading Yahoo Sports' draft summary for the first round, where they had a blurb on every pick and a player comparison. The Giants' pick of Jaxson Dart at #25 got a D grade and the player comparison was Drew Lock.


Ouch! A+ burn, there!

I keep seeing people say this, but I have seen no documented issues with him. His dad, sure. But I have seen nothing but praise for Shedeur from people who interview him, his teammates, and fellow draftees. I did read from a few GMs that he interviewed better than most QBs in the last few years, which ironically is a credit to Deion for being so involved in his life.

I think the worry about Shedeur is the circus that’s comes with him. Does Deion push to be his coach later, does Deion criticize team decisions I don’t think they are about Shedeur really. 


Browns are in a great spot though. If someone wants him they get even more draft ammo. If they want him they get him.

Some articles the past week quoting multiple anonymous coaches/scouts as saying Shedeur had the worst interviews they had ever seen.


Normally you might say that was just a smoke screen.  But here we are coming up to the end of R2 and he's still on the board.  LV has 2 picks in the next 10, so they might do it.  DEN here in a minute, or CLE early R3 are possibilities.   ANNNNNDDDDD Denver just traded back.


Not sure PIT wants him.  But we might see.  Looks like they aren't trying to trade up to get him.  I think they might take Howard if he's there in R4.

Woof. Thought for sure someone would take him by now.
