Vander Eshe is a one year fella. Might be good, but I'd rather take that chance at 22. If Beane allows Cards to jump him and get Mayfield, it will be a huge fail. Much more likely we make that move.

How far is Brown likely to fall on the basis of a disastrous Combine and, I gather, mediocre pro day?

Lot of NFL players think Jackson will be good. Lots of NFL D coaches don't want him in their division. I am not certain he will reach his potential. Maybe he'll bust, but there must be something genuine about his ability for current players and coaches to speak highly of him. I think he could be good Mike Vick at best. He does need time. Not my first or second choice, but I think he's less of a project than you surmise.

If they select him, I will root for him to be excellent. Until they do, I am opposed to the pick. I don't see the steal those of you who like him do.

Jackson is not ultra-cautious with game manager as a ceiling, so as you say, not TT 2.0.

Debate has its limits. At some point, you just have to let folks go their way.

The OP specifies moving up in the 6 to 8 range for Mayfield, so there's that.

For some folks wrong about everything = pretty close to right.

Yeah, something doesn't square.

Astro has us taking him at 22 on Draftek. Mayfield falls to 12. I'd really be happy with that draft, actually.

I don't want a franchsie qb anyway. All they ever do is surrender.

LB and WR need urgent help as well, but I like Ragnew in the second. I'm hoping St. Brown is available in the 3rd for WR.

That's plausible. Months ago, I speculated we would end up with Rudolph because he was the one fella I really didn't want

Not that I know of. I don't think we have a shot at Darnold in any event. I like Allen, contrary to many here. Lamar is my emergency pick if we get frozen out of the top four, but that is a fail on the new regime's part.

Isaiah Wynn is the value pick here. He can play both G and T, imo.

This whole non-trade exercise has been a trail of tears.

Amazingly quick work; serendipitous.

Well, since we are meeting with all the top qbs, I doubt any of this is a tell, though Rudolph is not a first round qb imo.

Honestly, it was a joke, but thanks for the good work here. I like Raashan Evans at 22 if we still have the pick after selecting a qb. Christian Kirk would be a good day 2 target.

Maybe we should pay attention to who the Panthers bring in

I presumed when you wrote April 27, you intended a preference for a day 2 qb.

Bills better get their qb April 26. I know you have a contrary opinion.

I picked Connor Williams. Can I still have desert?

I prefer Chark and St. Brown later in the draft.

This would seem to indicate that sticking at twelve and thinking at worst four early qb picks will push a really good pick your way is probably not the way to go.
