H2o Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 @movethesticks For what it's worth...most impressive QBs today 1- Watson 2-Trubisky 3- Mahomes 4-Kizer That's pretty much my take watching these guys. Peterman, Dobbs, and Webb after that. Most surprising to me was Trevor Knight. Not the greatest group by far, but guys with some solid potential in this draft.

jeffismagic Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 (edited) Watson looked the best today but I want to see the pro day workouts where they go through a script and throw to WR's they have some familiarity with. I'm not moving guys up or down based on combine drills. Edited March 4, 2017 by jeffismagic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not moving guys up or down based on combine drills. Pro Day's are important, but it's also good to see how they do with guys they aren't familiar with. That unfamiliarity is the wild card. If a guy is putting the ball on a guy in the perfect spot and he hasn't seen him every day in practice, to me, that says a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I'm not moving guys up or down based on combine drills. Only thing that's changing the grades I have is either more game film or an arrest. I frankly don't care about anything a QB does at the Combine. I don't get access to interviews, only thing I'd want to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or more information on intangibles that we don't have access to that leaks out. A guy can look good throwing in shorts I want to see what happens when has people trying to kill him.

And you just talked about how it doesn't matter what it looks like when qbs are throwing in shorts. Well, Watson has played as well as any qb in college history and he looks good in shorts as well. Maybe he is just a really good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I frankly don't care about anything a QB does at the Combine. I don't get access to interviews, only thing I'd want to see. I agree with this. The pro day and combine are nice to watch but the film should create your opinion and a GM's decision. Pro day and combine for the teams are used to confirm a thing or two you either like or don't like - and to take a look at a few things they have been working on that they didn't necessarily do as a collegiate, i.e. 5 step drop, take snaps from under center.

NFL teams will differ where they see him. I would be surprised if he is the first QB off the board but all it takes is one team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MG is a much safer pick but man, if you pass on a good qb, it is death. Imagine if the Fins drafted Matt Ryan (a guy who throw a bunch of INTs in college) instead of the safe LT Jake Long?

I'll go through the field drills at some point to look at Mahomes especially, curiousity about those feet. It's just not something that will factor in because they don't revert to bad habits. Brad Kaaya looked great against air but he's going to. The second he gets blitzed, he'll likely look exactly like he did on film.

There are a lot of good QB prospects that could turn out. It really tests scouting abilities, intuition, and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangarang Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Was only able to watch the first group of QBs throw but I still think Kizer is going to be a mediocre QB in the NFL. Not impressed by him at all from all the games I saw. How did Watson and Mahomes look? Those guys have me intrigued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Wagon Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 (edited) Would anyone be shocked to see Watson go number 1? Honestly it wouldn't shock me at all to see the Browns go QB at 1. I could easily see the Browns saying they'll be able to add impact players at other positions from picks 12 / 33 / 52 / 65 so they may not risk not getting their guy by waiting till 12. It also wouldn't surprise me if there's a segment of their brain trust kicking themselves for not taking Wentz, which could be a factor.

C.Biscuit97 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Exceptional group of TE's this year Next to qb, the second position we neglect the most. God, it would be awful to have a big, athletic guy to throw the ball to. It would be awful to have 2 TEs so you can run multiple formations that can be dangerous with both passing and running. Let's not pay attention to what NE does with TEs because they clearly are stupid. I love Hunter Henry last year. I have a huge man crush on OJ and would love him on this team but I'm not sure if it's the best move at 10. Not watching but any news on Adam Shaheen?
