Happy as a Bears fan that they got Caleb and ROME. Happy as a Vegas local that the Raiders got my favorite player in the draft, Brock Bowers. Good night!
Vikings are dunces....gave up waaaay to much for JJ, then give up that capital to move up a few spots to 17.
Yeah I think the Raiders made the best pick so far. Broncos would have been much better off taking Bowers and hunting for a QB later in the draft. Nix will probably have an NFL career, but it wasn't worth it to use that pick on him.
what did they give up to move up? I haven't seen that. Whatever. I think their GM is in WAYYYY over his head.
I get that QBs are the single most important spot on the roster but damn there's so many ways you can help your QB by drafting quality players at other spots. When you give up draft picks to reach for a QB you cut yourself off at the knees. The Raiders probably made their QB's job easier with that pick.
It takes more than one of those to get me wasted. Two gets me to a happy place. Three? The next day doesn't start well.
Maybe they want Kirk to mentor Penix on how to check down to a 4-yard pass to the RB on 3rd and 10.
when you hitch your wagon to an almost 40 year old QB coming off a torn achilles, you've already proven you're making questionable decisions. The Vikings GM almost made me think he had a plan when he signed Darnold on the cheap. Almost. Clearly the dirty birds don't think Cousins' is a long term solution.
At least they saved the Vikings' GM from signing Cousins to that ridiculous deal. It's like your wife cheats on you and gets married to someone else before the divorce settlement is finished.
Green Bay snagged Love and Rodgers late in the first though. And they were an established good team. Plus, Love was 21 not 24 like Penix.
The age thing is the first thing that came to my mind. If you want to take a qb to learn under cousins, dont draft a 24 year old. Yikes falcons.
Hilariously stupid
Von Miller had nearly 40 sacks his last two years in college
Turner had 14.
