Apparently Justin Gilbert got some issues too

Is there any chance DGB slids to the 25 pick?


Nvm kid has a couple legal questions about him

There's a good chance he slides into the 2nd round IMO

Oakland will take care of you, Cleveland.

 

[IATT]

If that happens RIP MM8

That actually works out ok for us.. For how quickly they give up on QBs, as long they don't get him killed (please joe Thomas).. We can get him for cheap in a year or two

Jets brought in Brett Hundley for a private workout a few weeks ago

Too bad we can't count on Oregon to supply the NFL with any.

 

[Chester McFloppy]

Not every school is blessed with QBs that are good at handing the ball to Emmitt Smith.

Maybe one day.

Arguments about not drafting Gurley high were nullified as soon as y'all compared him to the rest of the backs in any recent class not named Peterson or Lynch. Gurley the best player in the draft, period.

I believe him

lies

and the problem with Gurley is the devaluation of running backs, dude probably would be top 3 overall pick if this was 2005

now you need to basically be an elite back just to go in the 1st round

 

[dacomeup]

I'd take Jameis as the best player over Gurley. More likely to singlehandedly carry you to the playoffs, especially with knee injury worries.

That's fine, but he's also coming off of an injury. I don't necessarily disagree with you, but these GM's will justify their own opinions that he may be a reach early in the first simply because of that one injury.

NFL.com's sleeper QB's

1. Shane Carden, East Carolina
Carden got a chance to show NFL coaches and scouts what he can do at the Senior Bowl in January, and while there wasn't any Shane Carden buzz coming out of the practice week, it only takes one team to like what they see for a sleeper to stay on the right draft board. He is short on athleticism and arm strength, and like many others, comes from a shotgun system that will make for a steep learning curve in the NFL. Still, Carden was highly productive at ECU and has that fearless, gunslinger mentality.
NFL fit: San Diego Chargers. Carden wouldn't knock Philip Rivers out from under center, but he's old enough for the club to start thinking more about the future.


2. Cody Fajardo, Nevada
Fajardo surprisingly slipped a bit production-wise as a senior, throwing a career-high 11 interceptions while his completion percentage dipped an alarming 9 percent from 2013 to 2014 (68 percent to 59 percent). A good athlete who clocked a 4.63 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine, Fajardo comes from a zone-read offense that will require him to adjust to a pro-style system. According to NFL Media senior analyst Gil Brandt, Fajardo's pro-day performance solidified him as a late draft pick.
NFL fit: Dallas Cowboys. Brandon Weeden is more of an in-game relief pitcher than a long-term possibility after Tony Romo's eventual exit. A flier on a young guy can't hurt.


3. Connor Halliday, Washington State
Of all the quarterbacks who have a difficult adjustment to make from an offensive system standpoint, Halliday's might be the toughest. Washington State's offense is throw, throw, and throw again, and it's all from the shotgun. In just nine games last year in an injury-shortened season, Halliday threw 526 passes. He doesn't have the strongest arm, but posted some crazy numbers (66 touchdowns over the last two years) and anticipates holes in the defense with the best of the them.
NFL fit: New Orleans Saints. Drew Brees and backup Luke McCown have 25 years of NFL experience between them.


4. Brandon Bridge, South Alabama
Bridge's size and arm strength are just what the NFL is looking for, and it's hard to find that combination late in the draft. Bridge's issue is mechanics, and the inaccuracy that has resulted. He completed barely more than 50 percent of his passes on the season and will need a lot of work under a good quarterback coach before his game is ready to leave the garage. Still, he has the needed traits that can't be coached, and therein lies hope.
NFL fit: New York Giants. Eli Manning hasn't missed a regular-season start in 10 years, making it harder for the club to really know what it has behind him.


5. Bryan Bennett, Southeastern Louisiana
The former Oregon quarterback has a cannon for an arm and at the Manning Passing Academy last summer, he threw harder and farther than many quarterbacks rated higher. Accuracy is another matter. He completed just under 50 percent of his throws at Southeastern Louisiana last year and doesn't grasp the concept of touch passes especially well. He was a late addition to the Senior Bowl and showed eye-catching velocity there. NFL Media analyst Charles Davis chose him for the draft's All-Underrated Team.
NFL fit: Philadelphia Eagles. Bennett was once recruited to Oregon by Chip Kelly. If Kelly can't get Mariota at the start of the draft, why not another quarterback he likes at the end of it?

 

[mrswagtastic]

I'm intrigued by Jayson Braddock's scouting reports on the lesser named prospects. Keeping a mental note on some of the guys he really likes (and doesn't like, sorry Jaelen) and interested in how their careers progress.

 

[buc em]

Just watched Jameis's Gruden episode and it's hilarious to me that Bobby Rainey (RB for the Bucs) is wearing one of those altitude mask things on his face the entire time he's on camera I guess that's to avoid tampering charges?
