Mocks are impossible to even get remotely accurate because of the trade ups and downs on draft day. If everyone stayed put, there would be some value in them, but once the opening bell sounds it's chaos. Here are a few things we know 1. As a new GM and head coach, you have to figure on three years grace period to produce results until you get replaced. 2. Our GM has shown pretty good skills in talent evaluation, free agent acquisitions and stockpiling picks. 3. We are drafting a QB this year for sure. Right now the Broncos and the Raiders are the two target trade ups, as they won't be drafting a qb and both sit in front of Jets and Dolphins who it seems will both likely be taking qb's this draft. Broncos at 5, Raiders at 10. The interesting thing is AFTER THE JETS PICK AT 6, THE NEXT FOUR TEAMS ALL HAVE QB'S (and even Miami at 11 with Tannehill, although there is talk Gase wants to move on, lots of Mocks have them taking a qb) which means there will be lots of offers flying around for teams in this zone. I see it this way, if you think the guy you want is either Allen, Rosen or Darnold, then you're guaranteed one of those dudes if you're Beane, due to the Broncos "Open for Business" sign. They're in a great spot to move down, and if you use the Jimmy Johnson trade value chart, we could easily slide up to their spot with packaging our 21 and 22nd, and would have to throw in another 4th or 5th round pick to get to the 1700 points the chart says is needed to get into the 5th spot. If you think the Jets are going to take someone you don't want, like Mayfield, then it gets even better, targeting the Raiders for a trade up at 10 to get ahead of Miami you would only have to give up our 21st pick and two second rounders. In this case we could get our qb pick at 10 and still have another 1st round pick at 21 for our beastly DT. Either way, the trade down with KC and still grabbing TreD who we desperately needed anyway will turn out to be a monster move in April.

definitely polarizing at this point in his career. but undeniably a maddeningly inconsistent guy, with far worse stats than Alex Smith. Kirk definitely has more upside though, and if he's hot he can look like Rodgers, but way too many stupid decisions to command these huge dollars. As always, time will tell. I hope he tanks in Denver.

Oh Boy Denver, you just got the next Matt Cassel in Cousins. If you really wanted to get a win now guy, Smith would have cost you half as much as Kirk, and he's twice as good. Not just stat wise, but consistency. And you would have had $10M left over to go sign a monster free agent. Instead you have Kirk, aka Captain Average. The upside is two teams ahead of us that needed qb's are now out of the qb hunt. Cleveland, Giants, Jets will pick qb's and likely leave either Allen or Mayfield sitting there when the Raiders pick at 10 in front of the Dolphins. MUCH easier to trade up to that spot than it is to get into the top 3 or 4. This is good news.

And by high level, he means the meeting at the back of the school bus where they get stoned and talk football n girls they like.

I suggest getting into a few superbowl squares, doing some fun family and friends bets on props, and rooting for the Eagles to pull it off. Blount and Ajayi can hammer it, and the Pats have zero pass rush (the GENIUS traded Chandler Jones for basically nothing. Best DE in football this season) so Foles will have his chances. Also have your Talladega Nights DVR set to a funny part so you can go to it if the Pats start pulling away.

Dorsey still has no clue what he is going to do yet because it depends on what he's offered and by what team. They have serious draft capital and cap room for free agents, and they hold all the cards. Most of them anyway. i'm pumped for Cleveland. Wait til we both get real qb's, imagine a Bills Browns AFC title game in 2019.

and how many defensive holding calls? there were four major ones in Pitt, NE.

I see them taking Saquon Barkley if they stay put, and maybe even if they slide back a few spots. He and Luck and TY would be a serious force. Barkley might be better than Fournette and Zeke, and look what those dudes did for their teams as rookies

i told Peterman's nephew to stop posting from the school bus

We obviously will have another qb or two to compete with Peterman in camp. Don't say there are 3 elites this year and none next year, you have no clue and neither does any NFL GM. The fact is if we knew one guy would be elite we'd trade both first round picks this year and our next 5 first round picks to get the guy. (what wouldn't you give up for the next Rogers or Brees?) i like Sal's proposal to trade up to 12 with Cinci and get our qb there. Mayfield will likely be there, as will a lot of other good prospects.

Both sides agree Richie never used the N word, so what else is there? Seriously, these guys are NFL gladiators slugging it out in the worlds toughest trenches. His feelings were hurt by words? Dude needs to grow a pair or maybe try out for tennis or golf tour.

good point. although in the Falcs case they only had to Not Lose yards once they got to the patriots 21 yard line up a touchdown deep into the 4th quarter. In marrone's case they still had to gain yards and move the chains. The other major fault was the ridiculous clutching and grabbing by the Jags Dbacks, it almost cost them the Pitt game in penalties, and it did cost them the Pats game. They mauled the receivers every play and it cost them massive chunks of yardage. Poor coaching.

Honestly after watching Corey Davis, Mike Williams and John Ross all go in the top 10 and never make a single game changing play all year for each of their teams, I'm sour on burning high picks for wideouts, even with the sorry state of our WR roster. We need QB, DT, and LB so bad, guys that are affecting every play on the field in most cases.

Jags dBacks are maulers. They play too handsy and it costs them massive chunks of yardage. They should have lost to Pitt because of it, and it cost them the game yesterday. Just unnecessary in most cases, Brady isn't super accurate anymore and they still mauled the receivers. Poor coaching.

Donating to Church. Isnt that what good Christians do anyway?

Darby still had life on his rookie contract, weird move. Philly without Wentz is boring to me. Hope they win tho.

If you could get a franchise qb, like say Brees or Rodgers, you'd trade your next 10 first rounders for them. Seriously. Personally I think Jimmy G's star is going to fade when DC's start getting film on the guy and learn his tendencies. But I'd give up two 1st rounders for the guy, I think any team would, even Belichick if Kraft the Mullet would let him.

Nice post. I'd love to see a factor in there that took into consideration pass rush (time allowed before throw, quality of pocket/protection) correlated with receiver separation and whether or not the qb had a clear lane to see or were they looking over linemen when they made the throws. Yeah, yeah I know, it's asking a lot, but there's a lot at stake. Either way Lualetta was a surprise from what I knew about him previously. Impressive metrics-- based off this analysis anyway.

Yes. One thing about drafting in the early 20's is there are people there who you never thought would fall. Happened last year with guys like Peppers, Ramczyk, TreD etc. Recently QB's like Derek Carr, Bridgewater, Garoppolo fell into the position where you could easily have grabbed them in the 20's, or traded back a dozen spots and still get them. Obviously keep your options open, but there is no Andrew Luck in this draft, and I hate to see us burn two first rounders to get someone we really aren't sure of to begin with. I love the wheeling and dealing for fun on draft day, but I'd love to see us stay put and hammer two solid back to back players on day one right at 21, 22.

my worry is that Zay isn't very good at separation. aside from his drops, we burned a high pick on this kid and from what I saw he struggled to get open. He'll train his butt off though, that we know, so hopefully next year he can learn better technique and improve his playing speed to be a game changer for us.

There are only certain things you can audible to from certain sets. I found it strange that Dennison didn't entrust Tyrod with audibles until the 2nd half of the season. This team fell short in a lot of ways: No hard count to get free plays No Audibles No special teams return threat on punts or kicks No clock management training for our qb's, snapping the ball with 10 and 12 seconds still on the play clock when trying to wind down the game No backup plan for RB's, signing guys off the street AGAIN this year as the season went on. A fast, competent backup to Shady probably wins us Jville game.

Here you go again hammering the Pegula's. They hired Beane and McD who are doing a nice job so far. They're good owners who support the community and team, and don't give in to Goodell and his "we need a new stadium to compete" bullcrap. So your league circles tell you people are chattering that Marrone is the next Parcells? Hahahahahahahahahaha we'll see. He did a very nice turnaround in the Cuse program, but he had next to nothing to do with putting the Jags roster together, except bringing in Marcel and his $54M which MY league circles say they didn't need to begin with. The guy is by no means a proven NFL coach, but I'm rooting for him this Sunday along with the rest of the nation. I'd love to see Jax MInny for the bowl.

Bevell doesn't have a reputation for being a savvy coordinator, we all know his offense. He and Petey should've been canned

true. hard to formulate an opinion on an OC when he didn't really have the tools to run a good offense. also there's value in consistency on offense, keeping the same system into a second year would help new guys like Deonte, Cadet, Dawkins, Peterman etc. Tasker said that the other day, it's a big advantage if you don't have to switch coordinators, which never occurred to me. Rico and McD just had their first season as HC and game callers, they learned a lot I'm sure.

WR's Zay, Deonte, KB and Streater next year. Those guys get open enough. I'm against taking a WR early, too many glaring needs.
