We managed to go 0 -3 in our drafts this year. 🤣🤣 Grant is a fine player and pretty good value here. He just wasn’t the best option as the board fell. He wasn’t even the best available option at his position. People get so hung up on need vs. BPA. We talk all of the time about not drafting for need but then when presented with the opportunity, we draft for need.

Why are people voting Grant over Harmon? I don’t understand.

Personally, I’m not that worried.

I think that the Bills should consider it with Barron on the board. 🤷🏻‍♂️

That’s almost my exact list (and I didn’t love Young). Favre in the later years as well. Montana, Marino and Elway were for sure to me. Those 3 were the only ones that were consistently better. There were Cunningham years, Moon years, Favre years and Young years as well. Those were a little more up and down. He was probably 4 to 6 in most years. He was higher the year that Thurman won MVP. Jalen Hurts has an MVP runner-up as well. I think that it is the perfect comp. I said it before Hurts’ Super Bowl win and took some heat. At this point, Hurts probably passes him. They are so similar in terms of their roles.

If you read the thread, I said that numbers don’t compare across eras. That was the point. At the same time, Kelly was never one of the 3, or maybe even 4, best QBs at any given time. He was the Jalen Hurts of his era (minus the Super Bowl). He led the best team in football and was a top 5ish player on that team. He won a lot. I’m REALLY struggling with people that think Kelly was so much better in his era than Hurts is in this era. If Hurts ever wins another, I’m not sure that you could reasonably rank Kelly ahead of him. Josh Allen is one of the best few players in football. Jim Kelly was never that.

Even worse, when that dude is in town he works out of my office!! 🤣🤣 Last time he was here he sat at the table in my office and took meetings. He had people in and out all day. I moved to a guest office. 🤣🤣

For sure and it sounds more and more like it might be Dart instead of Sanders.

I like the pick. He’s one of 3 elite players in this draft. I don’t think that his ceiling is Payton and his floor Tomlinson as someone on Twitter claims, but he’s elite. He’s as good, or better, as a prospect than Bijan and Gibbs IMO. Jeanty is a star. Jeanty and Bowers is a nice framework.

Alright, the Patriots do not have any viable offers. I’ll be selecting as I think they would (not what I would do). Vegas thinks that the pick is pretty clear at -1000 odds. The New England Patriots select, Will Campbell, OT, Louisiana State University. The Pats have a desperate need at OT. They aren’t as concerned with Campbell’s arm length as some others. His long track record of success in the SEC, makes the transition as easy as possible. He’s gone up against LOTS of current and future NFL pass rushers. He’s going to protect Drake Maye’s blindside for the forseeable future. @Bill from NYC and the Jacksonville Jaguars are on the clock. There are still plenty of high end defensive backs for him to pick from.

Lol, I didn’t want to spend the capital. The Pats have too many needs. We shouldn’t have beaten the Bills in week 18 🤣🤣

For anyone interested, the New England Patriots are interested in moving down from the 4th overall pick. Please send your offers by 2:30 PM EST.

My boss is in town and he’s my responsibility Thursday 🙄. I’m probably going to drag him to the WGR Draft Party at Resurgence. I’m sure he’s going to want to cross the border and get weird. I’ll convince him that Resurgence will be packed with young girls with daddy issues, searching for a relatively successful narcissist who is married. By the time he realizes it’s just a bunch of smelly mouth breathers, it’ll be too late.

Converted WR that plays TE. He could take the 3rd TE role or at least PS

I think so. They’ve had Samuel and Boom Herron since. They have Bosa now as well. I think Xavier Johnson was in camp too. The Bills scouted them pretty heavily this year.

Lol, I wasn’t advocating for it. I was simply saying, there is so much talent there, we could design a draft of only OSU players and it wouldn’t be horrible. None of them are really reaches. We’d fill needs. I would like to draft an OSU guy this year.

I remember you being in early as well. Y’all convinced me over the process that he wasn’t just the product of that spread offense. You guys were right.

@GunnerBill and @gonzo1105 have done the most scouting (at least I think). I trust and respect their evaluations. I may not always agree but that’s a me problem. They would be most prepared and equipped to operate a draft (especially the mid to late rounds).

I actually like your list a lot. @thebandit27 was the first person to be all over Mahomes. He’s was all in way before anyone else. With that being said, I could make an all OSU draft this year that would look pretty good: 30 - Egbuka 56 - Tyleik Williams 62 - Treyveon Henderson 109 - Denzel Burke 132 - Latham Ransom 169 - Jack Sawyer 170 - Cody Simon 173 - Ty Hamilton 177 - Seth McLaughlin 206 - Gee Scott

If you read earlier, I said exactly that….

Pats bengals seahawks

I know me. As soon as we go up, I’m going to be all over someone that we haven’t talked about yet. I’ll be banging the table for Jalon Walker or someone like that 🤣🤣.

The other thing I noticed on Twitter, you can tell who watches a lot of football based on their Tre takes. He was bad early last year. They then benched him and moved on. He played quite well in Baltimore. That was the best football he played in some time.
