    That's dumb!! His college career gets dumped because of a combine performance? 

     

    The meta-game of the draft is weird and controlled by groupthink.  GMs all seem to worry that they'll be perceived as over-drafting someone when relatively meaningless things like the combine or Senior Bowl results get publicized.  If GMs were anonymous figures who all got to do what was truly best for their team with impunity, draft results would be vastly different.

    Stafford or Flacco?  I take Stafford all day, not even close in my opinion.

     

    Oh yeah, no competition.  Stafford got drafted by a train wreck franchise which is something that people ironically tend to ignore because he was always too classy to mope about it.  Put him somewhere functional for a 15 year career and he'd probably have 3 rings.

    Are the Packers definitive proof that developing a QB from the bench for at least a year is the best possible scenario? It's now 3 QBs in a row they've done that with and it just keep working.

     

    Not sure.  You have Stroud who shines right away and Josh who struggled in the fire the first season but ultimately it was probably the best thing for him.  But on the whole you are probably right.  Most franchises would be better off with a lot of Packer philosophy.

    Amongst who? In my community Kat Williams and Shannon Sharp are now the most popular!


    Young women.  If the NFL and it’s advertisers can court attention from that demographic why wouldn’t they?

     

    Like imagine if Michael Jackson was dating an NFL player’s son in the 80’s.

    Oh I agree on Watson. He sucked thsi year. He was a legit top 5 guy before his massages. Seems wild you can just completely lose it that bad.


    I think it’s crazy that in a league where QBs fall far in the draft due to mere character *concerns*, an NFL team gave a guaranteed contract to a legitimate sex criminal who had already sat for a year and wasn’t even allowed to play right away.

    Still think Watson can’t be that bad. They have a super talented roster and made this run with their starting OTs, maybe the best rb, and a bunch of other injuries. 
     

    they should be proud of their year. 


    They should be proud for sure but I disagree about Watson.  He basically hasn’t been playing football for three years now and he looked mediocre when he was in this year.
